What exactly are you asking? Imaging a drive means creating an image of the
drive and storing it elsewhere using an imaging program such as Acronis True
Image or Ghost, or restoring that image to a drive. Do you really mean you
want to reinstall the OS? If that's the case, you cannot extract the
drivers that are installed on the system for use on the new install. You
need to get the drivers from the device manufacturer's web sites for retail
devices, from the computer OEM site if it's a major OEM like Dell or HP, or
from the motherboard manufacturer's site for on board devices. You might
even have a driver CD if it's an OEM computer. After reinstalling the OS
then install the drivers.

One other thing. Download refers to transferring a file from the internet
to a computer. Moving a file to CD is called copying or burning.
