Thanks for this! I had downloaded hirens on a mac and was not sure if unetbootin would work. Fortunately, I still have a ten year old Windows laptop which I used to edit the .cfg files. I wish I had thought about it before as I would have just downloaded hirens to that pc. One more caveat was that I had to change the sata setting in the bios to ide. That way hirens recognized my drive and I was finally able to get back on my win8 device. Many thanks to raymond.cc!
Hiren Boot Usb 10.4 Download
Hi guys. I downloaded the zip file (Hirens.BootCD.15.2.) I unzipped the file using winRAR. I burned the ISo image file onto a CD & flash drive. Then I switched off my PC (windows 7 Professional 64 bit), put my flash drive on, switched on the PC. After boot set up, I selected flash drive option & then the PC started reading the flash & selected Offline NT/2000/XP/Vista/7 Password Changer option. Then there comes a prompt screen with this 'boot: _'. Next I pressed enter. Normaly a screen telling me I need to select the partition where Windows is located should appear but in my case this didn't happen; a screen with numbers & information appears instead, it just stuck there, I pressed enter several times but doesn't accept the command. The same thing happens when I used the CD. Could you please explain why this is happened? Do you guys know any other similar bootable rescue disc solutions?
Thank you for that, Alex!With a view to assisting a friend, I've downloaded the Zip file and opened same.I now have an ISO Disk Image file which I'm fairly sure I can burn to a CD.If I do this, and my friend places same in his computer with a view to booting from the disk, will it simply 'work' and give him access to the tools?I have a vague notion that another step is required! Advice on this matter will be much appreciated.
If a boot disk .iso is not 'properly' burned, you will end up with an .iso file-containing data disk instead of a bootable CDSo, the necessary ingredients are a proper .iso, which in the case of Hiren's would optimally be obtained from one of the reliable Hiren's sources. There are many sources of Hiren's some of which are 'evil', since Hiren's has a rep for containing a 'mixture' of freeware and copyrighted ware, it has been considered 'fair game' for nefarious sorts, just like other pirated ware.Hiren's today is mostly freeware, much less copyright ware than earlier versions.I don't know which Hiren's sources are just healthy 'alternates' and which Hiren's sources are evil -- but I do know that I consider a reliable way to download Hiren's and I consider Hiren's info source a reliable source of info about Hiren's might compare the md5 for the files you have against thos at the .org siteFilename: Hirens.BootCD.14.0.zipFilesize: 495.14 MB (519189647 bytes)ISO MD5: 69F36D88FD971CF6A7EDA9286D5E19F0ZIP MD5: 38CF0B054E5846489D2B8AC60B6783CF... but the .info site doesn't have any info about where to dl from. The .info site just has other freeware tools not Hiren's.
You might diagnose a wrpmg burn condition if you look at the disk with your Win and just see one big .iso file on it.I don't have a Hiren's 14; but my bootable Hiren's 10.4 directory shows an autorun.inf, BootCD.txt, Windows Menu.cmd, and a HBCD folder-- Mike Easter

Hi Guys!I started over using my XP desktop from scratch - including the download .Long story short - I've now got a bootable Hirens CD - tested on Mrs BD's laptop too!I appreciate your help everyone. Many thanks. :-)Dave
First, download a copy of Rufus, a simple and free tool for creating bootable USB drives. Insert your USB device and run the app -- it's portable so you don't have to install anything. Select its name from the Device drop-down box. Make sure to choose the correct one so you don't accidentally delete another.
In order to use Hirens Boot CD PE, you need to download the ISO file, once the disk file is burned to the disk, it can be used to start the computer. After booting from the disk, you can use the built-in utility to clone the disk. Next, I will show you the specific steps:
Step 1. You can download the Hirens Boot CD from its official website. After downloading the ISO file, you can use Windows' built-in Windows Disc Image Burner to copy the information from the ISO to a CD/DVD/USB drive. (Since many computers have no CD/DVD drive, here is an example of burning to USB)Step 2. To burn an ISO to USB, you should download Rufus, a simple and free tool for creating a bootable USB drive. After that, insert the USB device and run Rufus. This operation will erase all data on the USB, please back it up in advance.Step 3. After running the app, select FAT32(default) for the file system. Step 4. Navigate to Format Options, then change the option next to Create a bootable disk using ISO Image.Step 5. Select the little CD icon next to this box and browse to the location of the ISO file in the HBCD folder.
Intel pentium M 740, speedstep working out of the box with 10.4.3, need for ACPICPUthrottle for other versions,ATI Radeon x300 working with koverg's patch for QE and CI, omni's driver for resolution 1280x800, removed mouse tearing using mouse locator, and beam synchro off with the quartz simle program.Intel wireless pro 2200 bg doesn't work so i bought a new mini pci broadcom one...Using Insomniax, so it won't go to sleep.Using new keyboard layout. DVD burner pioneer working flawlessly.USB working well. Dual booting with acronis and also acronis enables usb booting which was not possible with my notebook.What doesn't work: not showing battery status event using modified powermanagment.bundle (no battery detected), PCMCIA, and battery works for about 2 hours and 4 in windows, due to lack of video power savings.When upgrading to 10.4.7, it's going mutch slower.But it's working 2times faster than my xp... . . . .
Specs:Athlon 64 3000+, 512 MB, 80 GB, ATI Mobility Radeon 9700Using JaS' 10.4.6 Install DVD.Everything works out of the box except: Sound and Battery Meter. Still haven't figured out a fix to the sound (not detected). Battery Meter can be added by following the 10.4.6 install guide.On first run, wifi is already enabled and detects networks. After restarting it vanishes. Do this to fix it:-Open Terminal-Type sudo nano /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist-Change the line en0 to en1. -Change the line 0 to 1.-Press Ctrl+o, then Enter to save. Ctrl+x to exit.-Reboot-Open Network Preferences. It should detect a new Airport Interface, click Okay.-Click Show > AirPort-Click "Apply Now"Voila.
Running MacOSX 10.4.6 upgraded from 10.4.5. Installing MacOSX presents no problems. After installation some hardware doesn't work correctly. Needed patches are: ACPIThrottle 1.0 for ACPI power management, edit boot config file for 1280x1024 VESA resolution (no QE/CI possible yet), custom AC97 sound driver, custom PowerManagement bundle to show battery status. AMR Modem and Intel WLAN NOT working, no patches available. Otherwise full functionality.

AMD Sempron processorInstallation with 10.4.6 iso was fine. Wireless works if you download the os x drivers from RAlink's website and install them. You might have to install the drivers by making the Installer program run via rosetta. Did not think it would be that simple. Sound works after changing settings in Audio MIDI setup (left speaker only). Volume controls do work. Use the pinxue rhine driver to get wired ethernet working. To get USB fully working, download IOUSBFamily-256.4.2(Intel)-log.dmg from the apple developer website. Make sure to get the correct matched version. Everything looking pretty good except for the video currently.

Sleep Mode: Goes to sleep fine. Waking up is a problem. Sometimes it displays the second monitor on the main screen so I can't see anything. Sometimes it wakes up but the track pad is unusable, makes the cursor move very fast and jerky. All up a very usable system. Thanks to Sarah for letting me commandeer her laptop. :) 2ff7e9595c
