How to Make a Bootdisk for Your PC
A Windows boot disk lets you start your computer even if its critical boot files are damaged or corrupted. A Windows repair disc contains the boot files needed to boot Windows, so you can use the Windows wizard to create a boot disc. In addition to the system repair disc, the Windows installation DVD or CD provides you with a boot disc in case of an emergency.
