Re: [H] bootable flash and DVDs
Thanks for the reasons. I do basic stuff and leave my BartCDs pretty simple. (Mostly so I never have to update the parts, like AV, etc...) As far as the USB booting. I made a "Vista Recovery" (64bit) bootable USB from my CD*-(more below). It works/boots on a recent Intel branded MB and a HP laptop a couple years old, so I guess I have new enough stuff to look into that type more. (Finally!) * This "Vista Recovery" CD was a D/L and is just like the one that is built-in to Win7. (I Win7 one is part of and easy to burn directly from the OS.) It is the one that "looks like" you are starting an install, (but are not), and fits on a CD-R.

Re: [H] bootable flash and DVDs
The easiest thing for JUST the Acronis Restore is to use their media builder to make its own boot CD. Acronis distributes a plug-in for a BartPE CD (but why bother). As far as your other questions, USB has flaky support some times generally, but especially for use as a bootable device. It may settle down eventually. Remember, the main things you want to accomplish "may" require constant care (and updating). I got tired of the hassle... Rick Glazier One thing I have yet to do is create some kind of windows bootable media that I can boot into when I need to repair a windows installation, or run a Acronis restore, delete a stubborn file when it refuses to delete on a running windows, or a virus scan on a non running windows. Something similar to booting from a dual boot windows PC... only not from my hard drive and able to use it with any PC. Is there an easy way to create such a thing, and how do I go about it?

Something like a LiveCD? Like the one that comes default with the Ubuntu installation CD?
