These apps are awesome, not to mention that the best part is that most of these are "Free" :) Keep up the good work!! Here's a little tidbit for those who are getting into the repair business and aren't sure where to start http://www.technibble.com/computer-repair-utility-kit-v1/ PS: Chuy, check out www.isohunt.com. I was able to get a copy of "Hiren's BootCD" from there and then some. Hey, just wanted to say thanks as a CompTIA student as well as another tekie.

Or do I have to find each of the software separately? I would really appreciate if you responded, and thank you for this awesome list.

I am also adding few more handy tools they are helpful on day to day basis. Dameon Tool Lite (Provides a virtual CD/DVD ROM, useful when you need to install an ISO image. You can mount the ISO image and go installing) CCleaner (To cleanup unused files and registry. Also useful in managing startup programs) Mozy (www.Mozy.com, To backup important data) Xobni (www.xobni.com, An outlook plugin to search and organize your inbox) Xmarks (www.xmarks.com, browser bookmark synchronization) WinDirStat (Shows where all your disk space has gone, and helps you clean it up) Unlocker or LockHunter(To get rid of error deleting file or folder) Hi Sean, these are very useful tools.

It lets you manually choose what registry entries to remove, so the program doesn't muck up your Windows install by mistake. Revo Uninstaller is also a great freeware tool.

It is really pain to reinstall Windows and Apps. I have been using Norton's Ghohst for long time. Not sure any other similar ones available.
