DriveImage is at http://www.acronis.com
I personally like it better than Ghost (better reliability)

Drive Image was from Powerquest, who was bought out by Symantec. The Acronis program is called True Image.

For windows the best I've found is Ghost. For linux, I use the free program, partimage:

http://www.partimage.org/

It's great but not exactly user friendly if your not familiar with linux. In fact, since I'm used to using partimage, I do almost all my imaging with it as it can handle virtually any filesystem. NTFS is experimental but I've had no problems with it.
