I don't think it was planned to be for a CD ady, hence why he posted this. Im sure it can be modified.

I will note, the latest version of RMPREP doesn't work properly with UBCD v5.0.3 and installing syslinux. Just use it to format the device or use an older version of RMPREP.

You are looking for UBCD4WIN not UBCD4DOS.

I would try a reburn of the disc on a slower speed. Could be a bad burn.

Please use the link in my sign to verify the MD5 Sum first. Next, you may need to force your computer to boot the CD. Most newer motherboards let you select the boot medium, when the bios splash screen is shown. This is when the computer boots up and normally tells you to press some key to get into ...

I have sent a message to board owner. You may be contacted by PM for more information.

Please confirm you have an exact copy of the UBCD ISO you downloaded by using the link in my signature. You may have a bad download. It does seem you may have a error on the disk and running the correct manufacturers HDD software provided on the UBCD, may fix the problem. Ofcourse after you get it t...

Edit the file located in (for UBCD 5.x): For ISOLINUX (CD): ubcd-extract/boot/isolinux/isolinux.cfg For SYSLINUX (UFD [USB FLASH DRIVE]): ubcd-extract/boot/syslinux/syslinux.cfg Change the options at below the 'LABEL main' line to boot what you want it to boot. Other Options: TIMEOUT x - set timeout...

I have tested and confirmed that TrueCrypt that comes with Parted Magic, that is included with UBCD 5 and above, works just fine. So you may want to try that route first.

Wasn't familiar with SCCM OCD, so searched it: http://www.opsvault.com/sccm-osd-optimize-os-deployment-with-microsoft-system-center-configuration-manager/ So its a Windows Install Boot Disc basically...so treat it as such. I will post with an update to adding windows install to UBCD...but I believe ...

Yes, but its no longer being developed. Therefore could be several unresolved problems and it is recommended you upgrade to v5.

I would highly recommend against "fumbling" through the UBCD tools, as you could cause even more damage. So before proceeding any farther, please respond to ady's reply.

Glad to hear it!

I will also note that the Alpha build as Parted Magic v5.5 so for anyone else having this problem trying using the Alpha build.

Is it SATA or PATA? If PATA, then make sure you have the correct jumpers on the drive. If it SATA, make sure if your MOBO supports only SATA 1 and not 2, and your HDD is SATA 2, then you will also need jumpers to make sure the drive is read as SATA 1 or could cause issues. Also need to make sure you...

Try option 3 when starting Antivir. See if that fixes your problem.

Doubt it would fix the problem, as I have not has any problems while testing several different types of UFD's but could also try the latest version of Parted Magic. http://partedmagic.com/doku.php?id=downloads With the USB Flash Drives plugged in, could you open a terminal and type lsusb and list wh...

Run your HDD manufactures drive check from UBCD. After it repairs/fixes the problem continue to recover the files by: 1. Plug in a UFD (USB Flash Drive) or External HDD into computer and boot from CD. 3. Boot into Parted Magic. 4. Mount the HDD Drive (Drive Mount) and UFD or External HDD. 5. Copy fi...

Interesting program and it is released under GPL.

Glad to hear it!

Could be that one of the systems is a different Service Pack (ex. SP1 and broken machine SP3). While it may work in the short run, could cause instability issues later on when installing/running certain programs. Be fore warned.
