Not sure if I am putting this post in the right place but heres my problem.
When I downloaded DFT (drive fitness test) from the website and put it into my meny with the command "run dft.img" it works fine. HOWEVER when I use Ultra ISO to make my own img file from a ISO for instance it does not work. It just hangs. Now if I take that same IMG file I made and run it by its self using VMWARE it boots correctly. Am I creating the IMG file wrong or whats going on??

I was thinking of trying them but i KNOW theres a way to do it without all that. I found someone else's design and theirs works fine the same way I have been doing it. Infact I even took their IMG files and did it my way and it works fine. However I still have certain ones I would like to add that they don't have. Anyone have any other ideas? Maybe build the IMG file with something other then UltraISO?

Sorry for mis-understanding of your question.
There are mainly two kind of images, which have the same .IMG extension:
1) Floppy disk images with FAT/FAT16 volume, such as DFT.IMG 2) CD images with ISO 9660 volume (did you create an ISO image and save/convert it to .IMG format?)
'run' command (as well as 'bcdw'/'memdisk') works with floppy disk images only, that may be the problem.
The method for creating a floppy image depends on the operating system. If your program is DOS-based, you can download empty 1.44/2.88MB .IMG's from http://dw.ezbsys.net/f1440.ima and http://dw.ezbsys.net/f2880.ima first, then open and add programs into it with UltraISO or WinImage.
