There are several ways to backup a computer. The one I like is to add another hard drive and basically copy/paste from the first drive to the second. Hard drives are cheaper than CD burners, and to restore from a CD may require special additional software as well.

Contrary to what the other poster said you should definitely backup the operating system (Windows folder, etc.). Otherwise, when things go wrong and you want to restore, you'll have to reinstall not just Windows, but everything else as well.
