Mark's suggestion was a great one. I recall one time that I needed to restore a Ghost 
image, you can imagine my dismay to discover that the image was corrupt. Ghost (and 
Acronis) has a tool for checking an image after it's made, but I was a novice and 
didn't even know the tool was there. That cost me a fair amount of lost time. Since 
then I always run the check on a newly created image. Presumably your DriveImage 
XML has a similar feature. Acronis allows you to mount a drive image just like a 
hard drive (the newer Ghost probably also has this feature). This allows you to restore 
a few files (to an alternate location) without risk, most likely if a few files restore 
from an image, every file will.
