Hello,
I am trying to create a disc (boot cd) to help save time when windows gets hosed and the recovery console does not work. I seem to have everything I need except the ability to boot to the cd. I have the floppies but I need to transfer the floppies (5 of them) to a cd image. 5 floppies means I have to sit by the system which wastes too much time. Does anyone know of a way to do this, or a workaround?

WHAT KIND OF OS DO YOU HAVE, IN THIS CASE YOU SHOULD LOAD YOU TYPE OF OS AND EXPLORE, STARTUP DISK OR BOOT DISK SHOULD HAVE A FOLDER, YOU SHOULD TRY TO BURN THAT, ITS A BOOT DISK AND REPAIR DISK IN ONE. OR IF YOU HAVE NORTON, CREAT A GHOST BOOT DISK, PEER TO PEER OR BY CD OR DISK. THIS ALSO REPAIR YOUR DISK DESCRIPTOR.
IF YOU DON'T HAVE NORTON, DOWNLOAD GO TO KAZAA.COM AND DOWN LOAD IT. ITS A PEER TO PEER DOWNLOADING FREE ANY SOFTWARE YOU CAN THINK OF EVEN UTILITIES. GOOD LUCK

Thanks. The folder burnt still needed a boot partition for CD, that part did not work. I ended up using ghost and that did work. Thanks for the help.
