This is the perfect fix for older computers. When you boot up from the CD, a text-based menu will be displayed, and you will be able to select the tool you want to run. The selected tool actually boots off a virtual floppy disk created in memory.

You need the Ultimate Boot CD if you want to:

  • Run floppy-based diagnostic tools from CDROM drives.
  • Free yourself from the slow loading speed of the floppy drive.
  • Consolidate as many diagnostic tools as possible into one bootable CD.

For newer computers, you would also be interested in the Ultimate Windows Boot CD. [via]
