Hi, I recently switched my office network from from DSL to Cable, so now I have the cable comming from the street to the cable modem, on the modem I have 2 switches connected one is linksys & the other one is netgear. From there it goes to the patch panel rack that then goes to all the jacks withing the office. Now my questions is, when I was on DSL all the ip addresse were within the 192.168.1.1 range but now that I switched it to cable all my addresses are withing the 10.1.28.1,200 & so on -- All I did was grab the 2 wires coming from the linksys & netgear switches that were connected to the DSL modem & connected them to the Cable modem. I do have internet & everything is working fine but my understanding was that for private networks when you connect a switch or router to the modem it would lease addresses under the 192.168.1.1 range. Any specific reason why its all withing the 10.1.28.1 range? is it because it's now the private network behind the switches is leasing on the 10.1.'s?, I thought the switches would lease within the 192.168's? I've set up wireless routers at homes & I've always seen them leasing withing the 192.168.'s any help will be appreciated & thanks!!!!

I used UBCD4WIN 3.22 -- when you said it disabled "ubcd4win multiboot environment" does that mean the other applications from the main ubcd4win menu won't work? I tested it a couple of time but I only ran the main ubcd interface but when it comes for the xp pro and home installs they did work!!!!!! let me know...... now I'm looking into getting ubcd 4.11 or later...... that's the one I really want since I already have erd commander and I thought ubcd4win had system restore (since erd commander has it) and I was looking to replace erd commander with ubcd4win but I need system restore so now I'll leave erd commander, drop ubcd4win and get working on ubcd 4.11 or later.... let me know if you run into any helpful links or any other interesting threads regarding the topic!!!!!!!!!!!!1 thanks.....

@cdob Problem is that both of us are guessing due to incomplete/missing reports. christianmusicvr asked about UBCD, then he "switched" to UBCD4WIN.... ...with all due respect , technicians usually have more "organized" mental schemes.... ...I was suggesting to engage on a single challenge at the time, as this is the usual approach I use. jaclaz I apologize for changing from ubcd to ubcd4win but I'm just trying to get a diag tool on the multiboot, I was downloading an older version of ubcd but it was ubcd4win (which I didn't notice at the time of download) so I tried to integrate it...... do you guys think you could help me out with the ubcd4win I think I'll go for that one since at least I got it to load to the text interface.. -- I'll try the suggested options and do some more research, I'll post my results here and I'll post my cd layout too (I'm at work right now). hopefully I'll still get help from you, once again I apologize for switching to ubcd4win thanks...... I got UBCD4WIN to work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! what I did: extracted all files from ubcd4win_3.22.iso to the aio-dvd folder, change i386 to BPE1, edit setupldr.bin & txtsetup.sif on the bcdw folder edit the bcdw.ini file i386 path deleted bootfix.bin from i386(BPE1) folder -- extracted the boot sector from ubcd4win with ubcd4win_3.22.iso and saved it as BPE1.DAT and edited the binbootfixi386 to binbootfixBPE1 works for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! now could you guys help me with the regular ubcd? I'm reading the guide already.... any help will be appreciated....

Once you have read the guide, things should be already much clear. Then simply browse the Forum: http://www.boot-land.net/forums/index.php?showforum=66 There are lots of examples, from which you can "inspire". Also, the very good thing about grub4dos is that it supports command line mode, in which you can enter commands or edit existing menu.lst entries and see how it behaves, thus you can freely experiment with any set of commands and only write the corresponding menu entry once you are sure it works. jaclaz Hi I have a question, I looked up ubcd4windows 3.22 and it's built on a PE enviroment so I tried integrating it like bart PE but here's the deal: the cd itself or iso loads a sort of command/dos interface which I believe is isolinux and you have options to choose from and one of them is the PE interface.... I edited setupldr.bin, txt setup.sif and extracted the boot sector from the iso, saved it as a .dat file and edit the fixbootbin1386 to BPE1.... so when I load the whole multiboot at the menu I can choose it and it goes to the pretext menu from the ubcd4windows but when I try to load the ubcd4windows pe enviroment and gives me an error regarding the i386 folder...... so I can extract the iso files, integrate them to the multiboot then i loads multiboot menu then it loads ubcd4windows menu but when I choose to load the PE enviroment it gives the error. any suggestions, I think I came pretty close to that one since it loads the first UBCD interface, so from the multiboot menu it loads to the ubcd4win text menu but it I choose to launch the ubcd4win option wich is the pe based one it gives the error....... any help? I already started reading on the grub4dos guides.... thanks......

Definitively, I'll work on it -- I mean I do have an understanding of how xp setup works (since I'm a technician), not so much the way cd shell works ( I do understand the code for the cdshell.ini file) but when it comes to the isolinux and grub4dos I don't really know much cuz I haven't really used them...... and it is a bit advanced but I have no problem looking at it from scratch. so I guess I'll have to start with the guide, let me look into it or if you know of a link with a more understandable one let me know.....

ok I appreciate your help but I don't really understand it -- I'm a computer technician and my knowledge is limited but it seems on the first link they're just posting code and not really telling you how to do it. is that a file that needs to be edited or does it have to be run from command prompt..... if this sounds like a stupid question please forgive me but I guess when you don't understand something the best thing is to put you head down and ask for help....... is there a way you could explain it or what do I need to follow this tutorial....... where should I edit the code on the initial post at http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1635 or where should I paste it, I'm sorry I'm kind of lost but thanks in advance!!!!!

could you show us how you did it?

Hi again ok so Ultimate Boot CD has both memory and hard drive diagnostics but I tried to put it on the cd and it didn't work, on the tutorial it says to replace /CDHS with /UBCD on the UBCD.DAT file and I saw it listed at the top without the / and I changed it and it didn't work, it would reboot and I chose to launch it from the menu then I saw at the bottom a line /BOOT and I changed it to /UBCD and when chosen from the menu it tried to load it but it said it can't run from or load from cd...... for the integrating it to the menu, I didn't see a cdshell.ini file on the boot folder on the ubcd.iso -- help please...... this would be a great tool to include to the cd and I really need help.... if there's another thread regarding this could you please direct me to it...........

Hi again I did trim down the source and it works fine now, I guess it probably had to do with the version of cd image (I was using the latest one which appeared to have some bugs) what I did was I copied the i386 folder from the $WIN_NT$.~LS folder (that getz created copying the set up files) to the setup\xp\professional or home, it works fine it it and it trims at least 100MB for each i386. now I need help integrating some sort of memory and hard drive diagnostic tool -- do you think you could help on that one or forward me any links that have to do with it? I will highly appreciate................

I started the tutorial from scratch again and now it works, both pro and home install with no issues, I guess a missed a few things like there was a section that said copy files not move them ( I usually like moving files because I noticed it takes less time) I guess I might have done that at some point and the version of cd shell I used I guess had something to do because the link on the tutorial is broken and I had to google cd shell myself and after some research I found out someone was having issues with the most updated one and it had some bugs then he got the right one an it worked for him, it works for me now...... I need help when reducing the size of source, I thought that was why it kept asking for files after reboot but let me give it a shot and see how it goes now......

I'm using oem sp2 xp cd's and the professional one is an hp oem, I don't know if that would have to do with anything but the win51 file I placed on the AIO-DVD folder is the one from the professional cd because if I use the home one it will try to replace it since they have the same name when I did the tutorial for the first time it came out bootable and even the cd shell menu came out fine and all the choices work, erd commander 05 works fine and if you choose between pro and home it runs the setup for you to format the hdds and then copies windows files but when the computer reboots and setup continues it'll ask for windows files on the root of the cd (D: = my cd drive letter) D:\I386 just like a regular installation would look for the files but is there a way to override or tell it to look for it on the xp\home\I386 folder where the files are? and what should I check on the win51 file? should I edit it? should I try using one from a regular oem, I have pro corporate too...

Hi I need help -- I followed the multiboot tutorial for http://flyakite.msfn.org/ and it's bootable and everything but when set up reboots it's looking for files on the root of the cd drive for i386 but it's not located there!!!!!! I only did xp pro and home on it and I tried a few things but they didn't work (like moving one of the i386 to the root of the cd) has anyone else ran into this issues, is there a fix for this? if there's a thread already made for this then could you point me to it? I don't know what I'm doing wrong but all the issues have to do with after set up reboots!!!!! thanks!!!!!
