Hi,

I am trying to make a multiboot Cd with Windows XP and Hiren's boot cd. I am sure i put everything in place. In Easyboot window, under Menu tab, I put "run hiren.ima" command for the boot image file of Hirenn's boot CD. I put the image in ...disk1/ezboot directory. I also extracted boot secotr for Windows XP CD using bbie.exe utility (Bart's). Put it also in ezboot direcory. The command I put for booting XP is "run booxp.bin" (without quotes). So, I made ISO file, burned it on to the CD-RW.
So i put cd in the drive and boot the computer form it. What happens? The computer boots to Hiren's boot Cd corectly. That works fine, but when I choose to run Windows XP setup, it fails. It starts to boot from hard disk. What is wrong? Is it possible, anyway, to make a nultiboot cd of such a combination?

The following information is quoted from Help file of EasyBoot:

QUOTE
1) copy directory i386 from  Windows XP CD to C:\EasyBoot\disk1
2) copy win51 to C:\EasyBoot\disk1
  for Windows XP Home Edition, copy  win51ic to C:\EasyBoot\disk1
  for Windows XP Professional, copy  win51ip to C:\EasyBoot\disk1
3) (Optional) copy autorun.inf, readme.htm, setup.exe  to C:\EasyBoot\disk1

Please check the following files:
C:\EasyBoot\disk1\ezboot\w2ksect.bin
C:\EasyBoot\disk1\i386\bootfix.bin
C:\EasyBoot\disk1\i386\setupldr.bin
C:\EasyBoot\disk1\win51
C:\EasyBoot\disk1\win51ic or  C:\EasyBoot\disk_xp\win51ip

4) Use 'run w2ksect.bin' to load Windows XP

Hi,
Thanks for the reply :-). I have tried with w2ksect.bin, but still no good result. Therefore, I thought that the boot sector might be causing the problem. Subsequently I extracted the boot sector from my Windows XP bootable CD-ROM. I tried with that one, and again no effect.
Anyway,thanks again. I'll mamage it somwhow :-)
