How to create a CD or DVD bootable recovery image using Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 bootable agent
Hello, I am interested in learning how to create a backup image of a laptop and save it to CD or DVD and have it be bootable. So for example, I want to image a new laptop or a re-image a laptop. I would like to be able to put the 1st CD or DVD into the drive and begin to image the computer using the CD's or DVD's. I currently have the Acronis Backup & Recovery 10, update 5 (Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Bootable Agent Build 10.0.1.3762) software.
Some of the solutions I have found on the Internet mention Clicking change under backup options, then On the Options screen, click Media components and select Acronis Bootable Agent. This option is not listed on my version.
I have also seen: Click tools, then click make bootbale media or something like that. This option is also not listed in my version.
I have clicked through all of the screens and can not find an option for creating a "bootable" anything! Any assistance you can give me would be greatly appreciated. This is beginning to drive me crazy!
Thank you in advance for your help. Have a nice day!

Thank you for your assistance so far.
Clicking CHANGE under the Backup Options section I see the following choices:
Archive Protection
Compression Level
Backup Performance
Fast Incremental/Differential Backup
Backup Splitting
Error Handling
Tape Support
Additional Settings
I do not see another OPTIONS at the top.
I did find a CD with Acronis Backup & Recovery Advanced Server software on it. It also contains a folder called COMPONENTS. The contents of the folder is shown in the attached picture.
I appreciate you trying to help me! I hope we can figure this out !

Given the available options, you're booting from this CD and creating the backup. Is it so? It's impossible to create a CD with backup and bootable components from the bootable CD itself. This option is available only when performing backup from the live OS, and 'Bootable Components and Media Builder' component must be installed too (in addition to Agent and, as if it's an Advanced edition, license server)
