With the latest version of UltraIso you can edit the BartPE.iso file directly instead of using PE Builder to recreate the same thing over & over again plus using CDRW disks are cheaper in the long run. I too have NOT been able to create a bootable USB flash drive w/ BartPE & Lord knows I've tried. That reminds me I need to update the apps that I use on my XpPe disks. Good tip on the UltraISO I remember using that program some years ago. I need to check it out again. If it were for private or limited I'd use CD-RW but the odds of a CD-RW not working in some random persons optical drive is higher than that of a good quality CD-R. I own an on-site computer repair/service company for residential and commercial end-users which means I have to work on all sorts of systems everyday. Some cheap drives won't read a disc that barely has a scuff on it. I've tried a few times to get a bootable flash drive with BartPE but haven't managed to get it to work yet. Most instructions involve the use of a special format utility from the likes of HP or to use Win98 because the way XP formats them doesn't seem to work. Once I get a chance to spend some time with it again I will share what I learned with the list. That is if I manage to get it to work. :) -Tharin O.
