OEM LAptop Recovery to SD Card

Hi all,

I bought myself an Asus eeePC 1000HE. Saddly, it came with Windows XP
pre-installed.

The first thing I did was wipe out the internal 160GB SATA HDD
(including the Recovery 50MB partition) by installing UNR.

I'd like to be able to boot to Windows XP, for those occasions that
nothing else works...

Since I own the Windows license, I see no problem to do that, but I'd
like it to be the one I got with the Asus.

I have two issues:

I have no external DVD-ROM
I am afraid it will wipe the existing installation on the HDD without asking.

Can any of you point me to a resource regarding the installation of
the Asus OEM Recovery DVD directly to an SD card?

Thanks!
