My concern that since I started with a 1.44MB image I would be restricted to this size)ĥ) Copy spinrite.exe to the UltaISO windowĦ) Save the image (I used the name SpinRite6.ima)Ĩ) Click Bootable > Load Boot File and select the image you just savedġ0) I was able to boot with the new CD and run SpinRite from the DOS prompt. Thus I'm in a loop here.Īnother option that I'm open to is creating a DOS bootable USB thumb drive but again I don't know how.Ģ) Use WinRAR to extract the "ima" file (this is your DOS image, for me it extracted boot622.IMAĤ) Delete anything you really don't want (I just wanted to ensure I had enough space. I get the SpinRite pop-up window which will allow me to create an ISO image or burn an image to CD all of which include the FreeDOS. I have used this CD successfully for years, and the current system Will read it after I boot from windows, but it will not show up in the Boot menu when I press F12. I just purchased an Acer TC895 EB11, and I quite like it, but I want to use my SpinRite CD to test the hard drive. I used the BART PE instructions in this forum and was able to create a CD but SpinRite will NOT run. TC 895 EB11 wont boot from a Spinrite CD. SpinRite MUST run under DOS, running a CMD window will NOT work. I have just about every version of Windows but all of the solutions I have found include the use of a floppy drive which I do NOT have. This sounds simple enough but I have hit the wall and have NOT been successful.
However they did not tell or suggest how to do this and have not answered my request for more information. After contacting SpinRite they suggested I create a bootable CD with MS DOS. However I have one drive that SpinRite fails 100% of the time. I have a valid license copy of SpinRite v6, it comes with FreeDOS and normally it works without issue. Using UltraISO or EasyBoot how do I create a DOS bootable CD? I've looked for hours in different forums and cannot find a solution that I understand or will work for me.
