In the past I have recommended Acronis True Image for a good backup tool for
Vista, but my experiences with the very recent release of Acronis True Image
2009 and reports that there are bugs in this latest release, I recommend
passing on Acronis TIH 2009 for 64 bit Vista.

I paid for 2009...and promptly ripped it out. It is bug-ridden and even can
lead to BSOD.
 
Same here. Acronis TIH 2009 created a pre-BSOD error message "fatal hardware
or system software failure." I rebooted computer to stop the inevitable
death.

A workaround that helped me was:
1) Turn off UAC.
2) Reboot.
3) Log-in as administrator.
I was then able to restore and backup simple files but... access to TIH 2009
was denied in the user accounts. I never had problems like that with the 10
and 11 versions.

I found other workarounds that would allow me to use TIH 2009 temporary but
the problem is that one has to use workarounds for a new release. Plus when
the computer is rebooted, the workaround has to be reinstated.

Verdict: unacceptable.
 
I purchased Vista in mid-2007, so I lucked out because I never had major
issues with it like some of the early users.
 
I have been using Acronis True Image Home 2009 since November without any
problems under Vista Ultimate. I have three tasks, #1 backing up my C; drive
as an image, #2 - covering My Documents and #3 - Offsite (monthly) doe My
Documents. I guess I am lucky.

Works GREAT on my 32-bit system ;-)

I have 32-bit. After the BSOD, it told me I had an unregistered version
everytime I rebooted and re-entered the key. Out it went.
