Is there a "cool" way to restore wim files?

[Bud4wiser]

Is there a correct way to apply images that does not require fixing the boot sector. I use "imagex" as a backup utility, but I always have to boot to an install CD and restore a "guid" and sometimes also fix the boot sector to get an image to boot. This involves have to wait for a Vista install DVD boot at least once -- select "repair" and then sometimes reboot again.

Is there a better way to restore a boot selection and boot sector without have to "cycle through" Vista install boot CD... to use their menu and sometimes a second utility, which I assume is bootsect.exe ....

Any ideas?
