But what's the point of restoring a complete image, as it's just going to restore the previous version of Windows? Windows will be upgraded, the purpose of system backup is restoring just the applications and user data. I haven't had any issues after restoring the programs so far, however restoring the programs without also restoring the registry keys is pretty much useless.
In the end, backing up the system partitions was just for peace of mind, as I had to reinstall almost all applications, because registry keys that handle file associations and files on C: partition (like drivers) were wiped during the clean install.
