Most of that stuff is possible, and it sounds similar to the sort of discs that PC manufacturers/service centres use to rescue peoples PC's. Doesnt stop me feeling sceptical though....

its a win98 boot disk

it is just a boot disk.easy to down load for free (legaly) just a scam to get money out of people who do not know much about PC's. if any of you need a boot disk with CD support that will allow you to format a HD and install an OS from a non booting cd then go to

www.bootdisk.com



Most of the other stuff can be found with google

Never be afraid to try something new. Remember that a lone amateur built the Ark. A large group of professionals built the Titanic.

It is far more than a windows boot disc and these tools are very useful however....

they can be downloaded for free !

try the ultimate boot cd from here

we use it regularly at work.

Yep the Ultimate boot disks (one is DOS based, the other has a Windows GUI) are good bits of kit. The Windows one is a bit of a faff to create though because you have to download several components then create your own ISO using a Windows CD I believe.
