    No, well at least for my Time Machine restore, bootcamp didn't re-partition. You'll have to partition and reinstall what you need/want.

    You'll have to come up with your own provisions for Windows backup. The integrated client works ok. I have pretty complex storage network that handles that for me, but a simple external drive with an equally sized Windows partition will do.
