jaclaz Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 You do mean the legal UBCD, right?Is there an "illegal" UBCD? I only know about the real and obviously legal one:http://ultimatebootcd.com/@KeyboarderYou can use UBCD as a .iso.Add a line to your current BOOT.INI on the XP stick:C:\grldr="grub4dos"Add to root of the XP stick (from latest grub4dos - right now it is already inside the UBCD linked below):grldrmenu.lstAnd: the UBCD .iso, say in /images/ubcd5.isoBasically you need an entry in menu.lst similar to this:title Ultimate Boot CDmap /images/ubcd5.iso (hd32)map --hookchainloader (hd32)Get latest UBCD with grub4dos support:http://ultimatebootcd.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=2131Read some basics about grub4dos from here:http://diddy.boot-land.net/grub4dos/Grub4dos.htmhttp://www.boot-land.net/forums/index.php?showforum=66Check for newer grub4dos here:http://nufans.net/grub4dos/jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaclaz Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 What do you mean? Copy the .iso you download to the SAME place (and filename) you use in menu.lst entry.The example assumes that you copy the .iso to a folder called "images" in root of the USB stick and rename it to "ubcd5.iso".If you have it in root of the stick, named "Mickey_Mouse.iso" your entry should be:title Ultimate Boot CD map /Mickey_Mouse.iso (hd32) map --hook chainloader (hd32)If you have it in a folder called "goofy", your entry should be:title Ultimate Boot CD map /goofy/Mickey_Mouse.iso (hd32) map --hook chainloader (hd32)You should actually:Read some basics about grub4dos from here:http://diddy.boot-land.net/grub4dos/Grub4dos.htmhttp://www.boot-land.net/forums/index.php?showforum=66jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyboarder Posted March 23, 2010 Author Share Posted March 23, 2010 It works great But I can't start XP on another computer than mine. I see the loading bar with the Windows logo and it reboots after 2 seconds Do you have an idea ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaclaz Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 But I can't start XP on another computer than mine. I see the loading bar with the Windows logo and it reboots after 2 seconds Do you have an idea ?I usually have several of them. Point is which one (if any) would be useful for your problem. First thing I would do if I were you, would be to check (and disable) auto-reboot:http://www.theeldergeek.com/auto_reboot_on_system_crash.htmThis way you should get a nice BSOD, which my crystal ball appears like identifying in a 0x0000007b, but we need to make sure of it's id.Then, you should forget the ngine.de guide (not that it isn't good, but it's a bit outdated) and use a newer approach:http://www.boot-land.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=9830jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyboarder Posted March 23, 2010 Author Share Posted March 23, 2010 I disabled the auto-reboot and I had the same error you said. But I will try your new link Thanks for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaclaz Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 Then, your build is most probably missing the appropriate SATA drivers.Check what the PC that doesn't boot and the PC that does boot have different, like:ProcessorHard disk bus (like ATA/IDE or SATA or SATA set in BIOS as IDE compatibility or as AHCI)ChipsetHopefully the linked to set of programs should make the USB install more or completely "universal".jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
