Looking for a software to make Bootable CD Virus scanner
 
Thanks Man... I've used there boot disk before and they work great, I didn't think he would have something like this. It looks like a really nice utility, and I've download almost every plugin he has to offer, but I'm having a problem trying to make it bootable. I know he says you have to make it an ISO image, and I think I'm doing that in nero, but for some reason it's not booting
 
[Q] I've burned a bootable NT4/W2K/XP CDRom using Nero. When booting I can get the message "BOOT: Couldn't find NTLDR"

[A] You need to disable ISO9660 file versions, in Nero you need to do a registry setting:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ahead\Nero - Burning Rom\General\AddISOFileVersion
Set the value to 0 (zero).
Newer version of Nero have an option in the "ISO" page, Relax ISO Restictions, Enable "Do not add ';1' ISO file version extensions".



Q: What's wrong with the ISO image generated by PE Builder? I cannot view/edit/rebuild it with most ISO utilities/programs...
A: The ISO image created by PE Builder is using the (new) ISO 9660:1999 standard.
Specifications can be found here: This new specification says that the length of Directory and File Identifier is limited to 207.
So the file and directory names can be up to 207 characters. Most ISO build/edit programs and operating systems (like Dos) that are based on ISO 9660:1988 do not like those long names and may not work.
 
Thanks dude...I did the registry edit and that work. I loaded PE Builder at work and downloaded all the goodie plugins and it worked fine with NERO 6 Ultimate edition. Thanks again for the info... you make me look like a hero again.
