external hard drive? and why backup the OS? just move your IMPORTANT stuff on to the external drive and reinstall windows.

"Sulit" (adj.) something that is worth it

Just copy all your files to hd and make it your boot drive and it should operate as your os until you buy another ssd.

Download: VeeamEndpointBackup (Its Free)

After Installation an first start you could do a Recovery Image. And after this you do a full Backup of the complete System. The first image ist to recovery the complete os(including driver if you want) on a new system. Second is to recover data. No easier way to do this then with this tool.
