You need an external hard drive (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136398) and backup software (http://www.acronis.com/homecomputing/products/trueimage/).
Yes, they cost. You could go cheaper, but the cost really is worth it. Acronis has saved my ass, oh, four times in this year alone. So, if you can spare $200, get those and keep from having these problems. Do you have a CD burner? You'll want to burn a recovery CD.
