If you are a computer technician, an advanced computer user or just someone that likes to try to sort out their own PC problems, one of the most important tools you can have at your disposal is a bootable repair CD. Repair discs have become hugely popular in recent years because if your computer won’t boot you can perform a number of repairs to the “offline” operating system straight from the CD.

One of the most popular and at the same time controversial boot CD’s throughout the years is called Hiren’s Boot CD. Released in 2004, Hiren’s Boot CD boasts a huge array of repair utilities and diagnostic tools that can help in a vast number of different situations. The controversial part of Hiren was the fact that for several years, a sizable portion of the software was commercial and downloading and using the CD was classed as illegal and using pirated software.

Thankfully, Hiren is updated periodically and from version 11 of the CD, the commercial software causing all the trouble was removed meaning it could be freely used without people accusing you of using software you shouldn’t be.

Here at Raymond.cc, we absolutely love Hiren’s Boot CD simply for how versatile it is and the amount of tasks it can perform to help you get things done. It always has been, and really still is the KING of all Boot CD’s.

When you download the tool it is in ISO format, so you’ll need burning software such as Nero, Imgburn or Windows itself that supports burning ISO format. Once you successfully burn the ISO to a CD, pop it in to your CD-ROM and restart your computer. Make sure that you’ve set to boot from CDROM in your BIOS. I personally recommend that you burn it into a CD-RW because you won’t want to waste a CD-R every few months when the CD is updated with newer or better tools.

I have windows XP professional service pack 1 installed on my mini inspiron 1010 but some drivers I downloaded from dell support don't get installed. As website says the drivers are built for win xp but they don't match it. Dell support please help me. I also strongly recommend that the PC be running Windows XP Service Pack 2. Prior to Service Pack 2, Windows XP sometimes had trouble interacting with USB storage devices. Formatting The Flash Drive Now that you have all of the prerequisites taken care of, it’s time to actually start setting up our flash drive.

These days it’s not too difficult to write the ISO image to a USB stick and there is a guide on how to do this. Of course, we have covered a number of tools on the blog such as Sardu that can write the Hiren disc to USB for you with the minimum of fuss.

When you start up the Hiren disc, the program’s initial boot menu will be displayed. There are some hugely valuable and lifesaving tools available on this menu alone, so I’ll go through the most important. Boot From Hard Drive will simply continue booting your operating system (if it’s bootable!).

Mini Windows XP – Perhaps the most valuable feature on Hiren, this will boot up an almost fully functional Windows XP environment from where you can perform a number of tasks such as accessing and transferring files, resetting hard disk controller, virus removal, repairing and recovering data from problem partitions, remote registry editing and a whole lot more. There’s a vast number of Windows based tools available to run and covers almost every aspect of repairing and fixing your system.

Wired networking and Wifi internet access is available meaning you can also go online for downloads, cloud storage or extra information. All the included tools can be quickly accessed via the Hiren program launcher. There is also an added bonus here in that most of these tools can be used on an ordinary Windows system by simply inserting the CD/USB stick. A few of the programs can only run from a normal system such as Malwarebytes Antimalware.

Dos Programs – Although not quite as used as it once was, the Dos programs section has a number of Dos based versions of tools similar to those in the Mini XP. A number of OEM hard drive diagnostic tools and other hardware diagnostics, partitioning and backup tools, BIOS, Master Boot Record (MBR) and filesystem tools are available and can be very useful. Simply navigate through the menus using the keyboard and the number keys.

Linux based rescue environment – This will boot a highly popular Linux disc partitioning and data recovery environment called Parted Magic. The main tool is GParted which is a very well regarded hard drive partitioning and wiping tool which is also recommended by a number manufacturers for erasing SSD drives. Linux is often a valuable alternative to Windows when accessing damaged or corrupted partitions because it doesn’t have so many restrictions when reading the filesystem. There is a host of other partition tools in addition to a number of filesystem recovery and repair utilities.

Memtest86+ – This is the very first tool you should run if you suspect or have been advised that your system may have memory (RAM) issues. Memtest86+ is widely regarded as one of the very best tools for detecting memory errors.

Offline NT/2000/XP/Vista/7 Password Changer – A very useful Dos based tool that can clear or edit the passwords on your Windows install.

Kon-Boot – A little gem of a tool that can bypass a Windows password during logon by simply typing anything into the password box. This allows you to boot into Windows even if you don’t know or forgot the users password and don’t necessarily want to reset or change it.

Seagate DiscWizard – An old version of Acronis TrueImage which still functions perfectly well and does a good job of making a backup image of your system. Originally meant only for Seagate devices, but pressing a few keys while starting the program makes it available for all hard drives. You can use DiscWizard to make a backup image, restore an image back to the drive or partition and also prepare a newly installed hard drive.

Fix “NTLDR is missing” – If you receive the NTLDR missing error while trying to boot Windows XP, using this fix will place a new or overwrite a corrupt NTLDR file making the system bootable again. If you have other NTLDR or BOOTMGR related problems or boot errors, the system can be booted using these files straight off the CD using 2 options further down the menu.

For a complete list of the contents of Hiren’s Boot CD have a look on the website and click on “See CD Contents »” half way down the page. There are literally hundreds of tools included and even without the commercial software which was actually quite useful in itself, this disc is still the best around. If you only ever download 1 bootable repair CD, make sure it’s this one….

I have used Hirens in the past when I couldn’t get my PC to boot into Windows. Using Mini Windows XP I was able to access my files. From there I copied what I didn’t want to lose onto a USB drive. I normally have a Macrium image backup. But sometimes I forget to update it. I am talking about maybe only a couple of weeks after last image made. Documents mostly needing saving. Restore the image and add the docs back.

The last time Hiren updated his boot CD was back in 2012. The guy has completely disappeared, and his boot CD is severely outdated. Yet he continues to renew his domain, so we know he’s still alive. Someone else needs to continue where he left off, and update all the utilities.

Nobody seems to know why it has never been updated. I suspect Hiren realized the whole thing probably needed an overhaul, Parted Magic became payware and MiniXP was getting long in the tooth and wasn’t working so well with newer systems and UEFI etc.

There have been restored and enhanced edition offshoots but they have all been basically editions by warez groups full of illegal software.

I did think about updating all the free tools in Hiren 15.2 a while back but Parted Magic/MiniXP would probably need updating or replacing too, or at least the MiniXP drivers would need updating. That requires more work and time than we can realistically put into it.

My daughter decided she was going to give her daughter her old lap top. It’s a Toshiba Satellite A305D-S6848. Her goal was bring the laptop to factory condition so she used the Recovery and Applications/Drivers disc’s that were provided with the laptop. Following all the prompts on both disc’s, at the end of disc 2 the computer screen went black and in the upper left corner a message that reads BOOTMGR IS MISSING, Press CTRL+ALT+DELto restart. Did that and nothing happens What must be done to bring computer back into operating condition ?

Step1: Creating Rescue USB Drive

First, we need create a rescue USB drive which can boot thecomputer. Please follow the steps,

  1. Run PowerISO rescue media utility. You can download it here. On Windows Vista or above operating system, you may need confirm the UAC dialog to continue.

  2. Insert the USB drive you intend to boot from.

  3. The utility will allow you choose Windows PE architecture and version. It is suggested to select 32-bit architecture and Windows PE 3.11. Click 'Next' to continue.

  4. Select USB drive for output device, and select the correct drive from the list. Click 'Next' to continue.

  5. The utility will start creating rescue USB drive. It will check necessary component and automatically download missing component from the server.
    Please notice that all existing data on the USB drive will be destroyed during this step. The program will alert you before writing the USB drive. Click 'OK' to continue.

  6. When it's done, copy the Windows XP setup files to the USB drive. Please note that you'll only need the i386 folder.

If no errors occurred in the above process, you should now be all set to setup Windows XP from USB drive!

Step 2: Configuring the BIOS

You should now reboot and go into the BIOS configuration to boot from USB. Instructions for doing so vary wildly from system to system, but generally entail the following:

  1. Reboot the system.

  2. While booting (before Windows starts loading), get into the BIOS configuration screen by hitting something like F1, F2, Delete or Escape. Hotkey instructions are generally provided on the screen.

  3. Go to the section that contains your boot devices.

  4. With your USB drive plugged in, the USB drive should be listed. If it isn’t, your system might not support booting from USB. Assuming that it is supported (as is the case with virtually all modern hardware), promote your USB drive to the primary boot device.

  5. Exit from the BIOS configuration, saving all changes.

Please notice that you can seriously screw up your system by providing incorrectBIOS settings!

Step 3: Booting from rescue USB drive

Assuming that you properly configured your BIOS and your USBdrive supports booting, your computer should now boot from the the rescueUSB drive. Depending on the speed ofyour USB drive, this may take a while.

If it isn’t working, then double-check the following beforemaking a scene:

  • Is your BIOS properly configured for booting from the USB device? (Is the USB device listed and does it have top priority?)

  • Have you correctly prepared the USB drive in step one? (Restart the procedure.)

  • Does your USB drive properly support being booted from? (Try another one!)

Step 4: Prepping the Hard Disk

You need to make sure that your hard drive is partitioned andformatted properly. Especially if you've had Linux or some other operatingsystem on it, you'll need to repartition and format it. The rescue drive containfile manager and command line utility. You can launch DiskPart for diskpartitioning and formatting from the command utility.

If you are sure that your hard drive is set up properly (i.e. ithas only run Windows, it contains a valid FAT or NTFS partition) then you cansafe yourself the hassle and skip this step.

Window XP doesn't support GPT partition. If your hard drive ispartitioned in GPT mode, you also need repartition and format the disc.

To repartition and format (This procedure will destroy any data on the harddrive):

  1. Click the icon on task bar to launch a command line Window.

  2. Enter DiskPart to run the built-in disk management utility.

  3. Enter the commands needed to repartition and format your drive. For example, try the following:

select disk 0 (select the first disk. On your computer, disk 0 may not be the correct disk, you can use 'list disk' to find the correct disk.)

clean (purges the entire drive, essentially resetting it)

create partition primary (creates a single partition from the entire disk)

select partition1 (select the partition created)

format fs=ntfs quick (format the partition to NTFS system, and do a quickly format)

assign (assign the partition a drive letter)

exit (quits DiskPart).

Step 5: Launching Windows XP Setup from USB drive

With your drive all ready, you can now launch the Windows XPsetup with a few custom parameters. Let's assume that the files are available atE:i386.

Plugging in a device now won’t work. Remember that all USBdevices will need to be plugged in right from the start while using the rescuedrive.

Run the following command:

  1. Run E:i386winnt32.exe /syspart:C: /tempdrive:C: /makelocalsource. Replace C: with the drive you want to install Windows to.

  2. Proceed with the installation. If asked to convert the installation volume to NTFS, answer No. The setup program incorrectly believes that your USB drive (if is formatted as FAT) needs conversion.

The setup program will then silently close, which might make youthink that something went wrong. Don't worry though.

Step 6: Continue Windows XP Setup from Hard disk

  1. Reboot your system.

  2. Unplug USB drive during post stage.

  3. Change your BIOS settings back to boot from hard disk again as needed.

  4. You can now continue to finish setting up Windows XP.
