Can someone suggest some backup software that can:

* Create a baseline backup image of my hard disk with daily incremental updates.

* AND delete the older backups as the disk starts to get full, to make space for new ones.

I currently use Acronis 10 to do daily incremental backups. It's great *except* that it doesn't delete old backups and when the disk gets full, it just stops working (yay). On Ubuntu I have a backup program that does logarithmic backup retention - it keeps an incremental backup for every day of the last week, one of each week for the past month, one for each month in the past year, and it deletes the rest automatically to clear space.

Anything that smart available for the PC?

Maybe you take a look at NTI Backup Now and NTI Drive Backup which you can fine at NTI's website: http://www.ntius.com.

In case you like ti incremental backups, you'll need to keep the older backup files, the files done after the initial backup (1. backup) otherwise you'll unable to complete an Recovery Restore of an damaged system.

Cheers.

Shadowprotect 3.+ will do that job. I use it and it runs like a charm, much faster than True Image with less resources used.

Click Storagecraft for info. Its a brilliant piece of software.
