RE: backup

Here is what I used to do when I had Windows machines at home:

Use Cygwin/Rsync to copy the entire C: drive to my Linux server... be careful to exclude pagefiles, swapfiles, temp stuff, to make your backup smaller. I then used Samba to share the backup out in read-only mode.

You won't be able to do a bare-metal installation, but should be able to recover all your user files.
