Windows 7 backup features.scheduled backups that synchronize with changes in your system to maintain the backup as you go and also includes a full system image that allows you to take a full system image ala the once ubiquitous "Ghost".
TKP likes the full image backup particularly important to do on your system but you can also maintain synchronized backup.
You may run into this error sometimes when trying to run a Windows 7 backup:

A common cause is DVD drives that have (accidentally) been included in a library folder Removed the DVD drive Remove any DVD drives from any library on your system and try to backup again. ,

You want to make sure that none of your users have a library that is pointing to a drive that was once a DVD drive
Click "Start", then "Computer".
Right clicked on the "Library" I wanted to modify, and selected "properties".
Check if any DVD drive was an included folder in the library.
Remove any DVD drives in any library.
Don't forget to make a nice system restore disk on DVD/CD as well.
