Fix Windows : Create Your Own Ultimate Recovery CD

If you’ve ever had booting problems, spyware or viruses, you’ve likely attempted to boot from the Windows CD and run some repairs… but sometimes that’s just not enough. Sure, you can easily backup your data using Ubuntu, but a much better option is to use the Ultimate Boot CD for Windows.

The Ultimate Boot CD for Windows is a recovery CD with loads of useful software for repairing or fixing almost any Windows problem. Because it’s based on Windows XP, there are many really helpful tools included that you are likely already familiar with.

Note that the installation will create the ISO/CD from your Windows XP CD… you can’t download the boot CD directly.

Now that you have the CD, it’s time to stick it in the drive and boot from it. You’ll be nearly immediately presented with the boot options menu, where you can run a memory test, access the XP recovery console, or just hit the Enter key to start up the ultimate boot cd.

There’s a lot more tools, too many to cover right now… but stay tuned because we’re going to start explaining useful scenarios to help you troubleshoot, as well as some other boot disks.

Note: You’ll need a copy of Windows XP to create the CD, but you can actually use the CD to repair some elements of a Vista machine as well.
