DougB Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 How do I make a bootable disc from a folder. I slipstreamed some stuff into a winXP folder. How do I prepare and make it bootable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 You need the bootimage off the original, just add it (and the other info) on the 'Bootable Disc' tab (which is a sub-tab of the 'Advanced' one). In fact, if you search the forum I'm pretty sure someone's done this and explained what's required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

demax Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 UUUUUMMMM, what? This may help you: http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=5550 (PS: The original XP Cd already has a bootfile. Slip streaming or adding additional files to the present XP CD will not delete or make the CD none bootable. You probably used a slipstream program or added the files using a program such as UltraIso. And then you made a new Image to burn. When you open the image with UltraISO you should see the bootfile, and if not, try extracting the bootfile with same program. If it won't extract your missing the file. To get a boot file put in your original CD and extract it from there. Then Add the file to the new image. Then burn. demaX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 If you look on the 'Bootable Disc' tab within ImgBurn's Build mode you'll see an option called 'Create Boot Image'. You can use that to save the one from the original disc to a file on your hdd and then use the file + the info added to the log window during its creation to fill out the fields on that tab. Just change the drop down box to point to your cdrom drive (with the original xp cd in it) and click the blue floppy disc 'Save' button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
