Easy2Boot 1.97A



Easy2Boot

Easy2Boot is a portable app that can turn any bootable USB drive into bootable media including Windows and Linux. Easy2Boot uses a command-line interface that is simple to use and effective. Simply load up your thumb drive, start the application and follow the prompts to create your first bootable thumb drive. Detailed guides are included if you get stuck and the website also has tips, tricks, and guides. Be sure you're formatting the correct drive as it will format whatever drive you specify.

However, all you need to do is select the USB drive you want to format (all partitions will be wiped), select the Easy2Boot menu language and keyboard type and click on the red "Make E2B Drive" button. 

It also supports UEFI booting, and you can update the ISO at any time, so there's no need to repeatedly format or recreate your media every time.

There are two files to choose from. Our mirrors have both in one ZIP that's 62.6 MB. Your choices include whether you want DPMS (Driver Pack Mass Storage drivers) or not. If you're not sure, get the smaller, no DPMS download. The DPMS version includes the Driver Pack Mass Storage drivers which might be needed if you're installing 32-bit Windows XP to SATARAIDSCSI systems. Obviously, this is most likely a small group of people.

If you're looking to boot your operating system from a USB drive directly, you'd be hard-pressed to find a simpler, lightweight app that Easy2Boot to do so. Those not familiar with the command-line might be a bit uncomfortable.

Without DPMS : Does not include Windows XP Mass Storage drivers - can also be used to update DPMS and non-DPMS E2B drives.

With DPMS : Includes Driver Pack Mass Storage drivers for installing 32-bit XP to SATA\RAID\SCSI systems - Update will also copy all DPMS files. Use this version only if you need to install Windows XP to modern SATA\RAID\SCSI systems.

Note : For the latest Beta version and .zip versions which will not trigger false-positive virus alerts - go to one of the Alternate Download sites.
