Make your own live CD

BALTHOR 2nd Jan 2012 - Below your threshold / Read Anyway

There are many programs out there that make live CD's.A live CD is a CD that you boot up to and an operating system runs.The CD is in the CD compartment,you turn the computer on and if your BIOS is set up right the CD starts and there's an operating system.Live CD's might just work if your computer isn't running.It's just the CD and the electronics in your computer.Some live CD's will even get you on the Internet.Your computer is broken and you're on the Internet every day is nice for some.Making a live CD is difficult.You need a Windows operating system disk.The forums yell at you for breaking license agreements and you'll think you'll go to jail for this one.Some say it is impossible because of Microsoft licensing!Most live CD programs do not work at all.My subconscious says that hand made live CD's are like gold to some.More fun stuff with computers.
