I have Winternals Administrators Pack 5 CD and I would like to Experiment with running it from a USB Flash Drive.
Flash drive size is no drawback to me as I have one of those new Miniature HDD Flash Drives.
It is an ( Archos ) 4gig unit.
These type of devices do not suffer from Bunout from continual write/rewrite like the chip type models.
I have been experimenting with making Flash drives Bootable for some years now .
My flash drive is currently formated to fat32 with Dos7 installed and it Boots without any problem.
To install the complete admin cd to it and make it bootable I thought it would be no problem.
So I Erased all Files and Folders from it and Copied the Entire Contents of the Admin CD to it.
Now I went to control panel and made Hidden O/S Files Visbile first.
Anyway the dam thing won't boot.
I thought with windows 2000/xp etc , One could just Copy all the Files from the Root Dir and they would be bootable.
So I am wondering if I have to somehow Write/Burn the ISO Image of the CD to the Flash Drive.
But How do I do this.
Nero does not give any Option other thand CD's or Dvd Drives as Writable Devices.
