Basically, creating HDD images file means creating System Image file. So i would like to know which operating system you are using ? There are many applications that helps you making image file like Acronis True Image Home 2011. It is one of the best application i found for the same. If you are using Windows 7 OS than you can simply do it without any application as well. Here is how:
Create a system recovery disk in Windows 7
Windows 7 System Restore from Backup Image
