Backing up the DSR Feature

Hello, I am not sure this question is in the appropriate section, pardon me if it is not.
 
My question is:
 
After having gone through some trouble when i reinstalled windows from the OEM I had lost my "Dell Restore Feature" (Ctrl+F11) and after getting some help from some of you guys here I managed to enable that feature once more and perform the factory install. I was wondering if it was possible to make a complete backup of the DSR feature just in case one was to permanently lose it from the hard drive? Additionally, is it possible to make the DSR backup bootable from a CD?
 
Thank you

    Imaging software is generally capable of capturing and restoring images of the system configuration or the entire hard disk drive, which would include the Dell PC Restore feature.
     
    Imaging software may be used to replace the Dell PC Restore feature, but it may also be used to reliably preserve an image that includes the capability to fully restore the feature. You can save a bootable image of the entire hard disk to a set of CDs as shown in the link below.

    Any good imaging software should be able to perform the same function, plus save a variety of other images that provide multiple restore options if/when the need arises.
