Drive Medic - Create Bootable CD

On the last screen of the wizard, the bootable disk is created. When completed, a Finished message displays to indicate the successful creation of the disk.

Tip: If you will be using the Drive Medic bootable disk later, clearly label it and store it in a safe place.

** Note: If your computer starts as it normally does (meaning, you see the operating system booting) and you do not see Drive Medic loading, change your computer's BIOS so that the CD/DVD drive with the bootable disk is first in the boot sequence.

Change Boot Order:

If Drive Medic does not automatically open when you start your computer, change the boot order so that the CD drive with the bootable disk boots first. Drive Medic needs to boot before your computer's operating system does.

To change the boot order, edit the boot settings in your computer's BIOS (a software program that your computer uses to boot and control other functions). Generally, when the computer is starting, you will see a message to press a certain key or key sequence to "Enter setup"; this should open the BIOS. Once opened, look for a feature called "Boot" or "Startup" and then change the boot order/sequence. No other changes need to be made in the BIOS.

Tip: The exact procedure to access the BIOS differs by computer manufacturer, so refer to your computer's manual for specific information. You may also be able to locate vendor-specific information through a Web search.
