BartPE

[monkeynuts]

Hi,

Just thought this would be useful to people who are testing their machines while overclocking. As machine boots from cd, will limit corruption etc on your harddrive if o/c'd too much etc. note you need original OS Cd roms to build it.

Bart's PE Builder helps you build a "BartPE" (Bart Preinstalled Environment) bootable Windows CD-Rom or DVD from the original Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 installation/setup CD, very suitable for PC maintenance tasks.

It will give you a complete Win32 environment with network support, a graphical user interface (800x600) and FAT/NTFS/CDFS filesystem support. Very handy for burn-in testing systems with no OS, rescuing files to a network share, virus scan and so on.
This will replace any Dos bootdisk in no time!

You can add apps to this, I am going to add superpi / occt and various other tools to test my system here.

Im sure this is handy, would have saved me some time if i had it a few weeks ago when i was testing my opty144.
