Way Off Topic

I know this qustion is way off topic of visual basic programing, but is it pospalb for me to make a boot up CD insted of a boot up disk using WindowsMe??

You should be able to. If your computer checks the CD-Rom drive when booting, you should just be able to burn the system files on to a CD. I think this shoul work.
:) :) :)

it's been awhile since I made a boot disk, so I don't know what files to put on the cd for the boot start. can you tell me what files I need to put on to the cd for making the Boot CD??

The basic ones are command.com, io.sys, msdos.sys, autoexec.bat, config.sys but your system may require some different ones aswell, The easiest way is to create a boot disk and then burn the files to a CD.

ok, thanks for your help, let's just hope my A drive want's to work for me today :|

AFAIK, you can't just put files on the cd-rom, you'll need to use the 'Bootable CD-rom' option of you cd burning program. The CD-rom will be treated as the floppy drive once it is booted (ever booted the Windows CD, noticed the 'A:\' prompt and the 1.4 Meg limit, and the fact that you can't find the files used for booting up once you search the cd-rom normally?). If you want to use the CD-rom you'll need to boot with some CD drivers, like the Win98 cd does (don't know about ME or 2K, never tried it)...

I get messages (when booting up) saying looking for start up files on A:\, C:\, D:\, E:\. or did I see something about changeing the order in the BIOS. Do you think that I still need the drivers if I get that options??

Don't know, never really tried it, but I don't think my BIOS supports booting from CD like that (it's an old P133, but it does support booting from CDrom)...

my computer is basicly still new, I got it sometime Dec. of 2000

I've found out how to make a bood up cd, it made me make a bood up disk, than with my software, I choose boot up cd, and it told me to put in my boot up disk, and everything seems good, but I never did made it yet, have to look for a blank cd.
