| 116635 | 2003-01-26 03:55:00 | Please could somebody explain in simple steps how to make a Rescue CD from Nortons instead of using 10 floppies. I saved the files onto the hard drive and used nero's bootable cd function but am still having problems as when i boot from the disc it won't full work. Cheers for any help Win 98se by the way on an old Cyrix 233Mhz with 128MB ram |

| 116636 | 2003-01-26 08:21:00 | Try Nero - File - Hard drive Back-up. Read the help file first. Bye |

| 116637 | 2003-01-26 08:27:00 | Hmmmm I didn't want a restore cd but wanted a rescue set to fix drive errors, antivirus scans etc. Want to explain your answer further perhaps.... Cheers |

| 116638 | 2003-01-26 08:48:00 | Hi Scarfie It might be an idea to rewrite your problem with more detail. It gets a bit thin at the end and we can't second-guess what actually happened. Describe your process and outcome in more detail and it might get a better response. No or slow answers usually means not enough info. Either that or use floppies, at least you know they will work.

| 116639 | 2003-01-26 11:17:00 | I would have thought your Nortons installation disk would be bootable to enable you to do what you want. Mine is, ver. 2002 | Stumped Badly (348) | ||
| 116640 | 2003-01-26 18:50:00 | Nortons 2001 doesn't seem to be bootable... basically when you run Nortons rescue disk it creates 10 floppies containing antivirus definitions and emergency programs. It also gives you the option of saving this files to the hard drive in one folder. I assumed you could then burn those files onto a cd but am having a liitle trouble when booting from the cd. When I boot from it, the computer only sees disk one and won't recognize the other disks held on the cd. What does everyone else use for emergencies or does everyone just use floppies. Or have they bought later versions of Nortons? Sorry if I've been obtuse, I guess it's all this sun in Palmy thats making me a bit heatstroked (i.e slow) Cheers |

| 116641 | 2003-01-26 22:01:00 | If you didn't do it that way, when you burn your disc try putting all the files from the 10-floppy set into the root directory of the CD - ie don't create separate subfolders for each disc. HTH |
