Bear in mind that DriveImage XML V2.01 requires VSS to effect "drive 
locking" or "hot imaging", which will NOT work on single-harddrive 
computers without NTFS.  Most computers today come as NTFS, so no 
problem, but DriveImage XML V2.01 is still usable with older FAT-32 
systems, though you will not be able to "hot lock" your drive. You may 
or may not get a satisfactory image without VSS.

However, those of us who still prefer FAT-32 operating systems, or have 
multiple hard drives and partitions galore .. DriveImage XML V2.01 "hot 
locking" is available for ANY of your drives and partitions as long as 
at least ONE of them is formatted in NTFS.

One must delve into the nitty-gritty of the instructions to learn this.
