Web Server Backups

I am currently running our library web server using a standalone 
workstation: Apache v. 1.3.14, FilemakerPro v.4, Windows2000 Professional, 
with service pack 1, 650MHz, 128 Megs ram, 2 hard drives [one used for 
backups].

I currently backup my system by making an image of my working [first] drive 
onto the 2nd drive using Driveimage v. 4 [Powerquest].

While this disaster recovery scheme works well, in order to use Driveimage 
I do have to boot out of Windows2000 [using a Driveimage boot-up diskette] 
to image the drive. The entire process takes about 60 minutes. During this 
time the library web server is down and unavailable. Is there a backup / 
disaster recovery solution that anyone can recommend that will perform a 
complete system/hard drive image or backup while Windows2000 remains online?

Thank you very much for any advice you can offer.
