You can download/buy a new boot DVD at their site.

there must be a way to create a bootable disc. if a software is bought and downloaded from their site, there must be a way to create a hard copy of the software.

Unfortunately, if you don't have the original boot disc ISO to create another CD from, then you only have two options that I'm aware of:

1. Purchase the boot disc from the site -- I think it's like $10 or something. 600MB download and you can burn a couple new discs from it.

2. Use SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner to take your existing OS X install (with Drive Genius installed) and clone it to an external firewire drive. From there you can boot from that external target drive and use Drive Genius on one or more of the internal drives. This assumes your machine has firewire of course.

When it's all said and done, it's just easier to buy the image off the site and make a couple backups of it.

Good luck -
