I was wondering if there is anyway to back up and put Windows applications on a different computer?

I'm in Iraq right now and am probably going to have to send my laptop back to the states bacuse of some problems with it. It's all under warrantee from Best Buy, which I strongly recomend their extended waratee on just about everything, and I am worried they're going to replace my laptop. I have a lot of applications, mainly AutoCAD and Microsoft Office Pro and a few other applications that I use daily or pretty close. I don't know where all these disks are at home and I don't want to rely on my wife to find them all.

I would love if there was a way to make it where I can install these programs when my computer comes back or mirror the hard drive so I can just set everything back like it was. I would hate to loose these applications for the next year until I can get home and dig through boxes and find them if they haven't been lost in all the moving.
