Confused - restore to dissimilar hardware

Thread needs solution

Hi

I am not hugely IT literate but I have True Image 2012 and plus pack, and I have created data and disk back ups. I understand that I can use these to restore data and system on my current machine, but I am confused about the process to restore progs and data to a different machine in the event my current one became unusable. I have ploughed through lots of help menus etc.
It appears I need to install Windows AIK and run Acronis Win PE ISO builder?
Will this then enable me to restore all of my progs to a new machine or just Windows?
If just Windows is there any way I can create something to restore all progs?
How can I check/test if the disk I have created will work?

Any help appreciated

Thanks

You'll need to have the driver files handy for your new machine so you can install those.
