What you need to Build:
1. CD Burner and blank CD's Almost every system out there has a CD Burner now, most new computers have been shipping with DVD Burners for at least the past year. 2. Windows XP CD, with at least Service Pack 1 (SP2 is highly recommended) If your CD does not have SP1 or SP2 included on it you can easily "slipstream" a Service Pack using a program called AutoStreamer. Instructions for slipstreaming are on the

"slipstreaming" page of this site. Do not use a source that was "modified" by programs that claim to stream hotfixes or drivers into your XP CD. Only use a true XP CD or one that is slipstreamed properly with only an official Service Pack from Microsoft. TIP- Unsure about what Service Pack your CD has? Look at the root of your XP CD for files ending with a .SP1 or .SP2 extention. Whichever extension you find tells you what Service Pack is installed on your CD. 3. Download UBCD4Win Click the "Downloads" link to the upper left of this page and download the project. The project is now only ONE download. Included in the download are our project files, our "drivers" package, and our OEM PE Builder.

Extracting, setting up, and building UBCD4Win:

1. Run the UBCD4Win EXE file. Follow all the instructions/prompts that come up. Do not install to a folder with spaces in its name. Our HashCheck tool checks for this and warns users, however people continue to ignore that warning and end up with errors when they try to build. Please pay attention to any messages that our Installer or HashCheck may produce. Be aware that your antivirus software may report viruses or trojans when you extract UBCD4Win, please view the FAQ topic on this for more information HERE. PLEASE- make sure you run the EXE, do not use any other extraction tool to extract the project files. 2. Insert your XP CD with SP1/SP2 into a CD Rom drive. It is highly recommended that users copy their XP CD to their hard drive. Simply because it helps reduce read errors from your CD drive and it will speed up the build process. If you choose to do this: a. Create a "XPCD" folder on one of your internal hard drives. b. In Windows Explorer, select from the menu: Tools > Folder Options > View tab. c. Check that the [show hidden files and folders] radio button is selected and the [hide protected operating system files] is unchecked. d. Now copy the folders and files from your CD drive to the "XPCD" folder on your hard drive. 3. Launch UBCD4WinBuilder.exe (located in your C:\ubcd4win folder)

4.If this is the first time you have run UBCD4Win PE Builder you will see this message, please read it:

5. You will then see this message, select NO. The search can take a long time to find your files.

6. This is the main screen. All options are now available from the menus or buttons.

On this main screen you only need to modify a few items, please refer to the image above. The options that really matter to a successful build are in bold below, the others are optional and are designed for more experienced users: "Source" needs to be directed to the folder where you copied your XP CD to or the CD drive where your XP CD is located. "Custom", NO information is necessary for that option when building UBCD4Win. Please do not use this option unless you understand what it does! "Output" is where you would like the files that UBCD4Win PE Builder modifies, extracts, and creates located. This is basically the folder that the builder uses to do all of its work, you can keep it as the default "BartPE." -Make sure the "Create ISO image" box is checked and a filename is entered, if not an ISO file will not be created. The path and file will be created if they do not exist. But please remember that the filename must have an "iso" extension or it will not be created. -"Burn to CD", a good option. If you check this option, UBCD4Win Builder burn the ISO image to a CD after the ISO file is generated. You must have a blank CD in your burner in order for this to complete. You can use this option if you wish, however I personally prefer to use Nero, ImgBurn, or another CD burning application to do this. Burning instructions are on the "Burn ISO" page of the site. 7. "Plugins" button. I strongly suggest you click this button to update or customize your build. You may also need to disable and/or enable plugins according to the OS you are using to build with. Almost all of the plugins included in the project are by default set to be

installed. Updating will also be necessary so you have the latest AntiVirus and AntiSpyware definitions included on your CD. **Version 3.06 driver change. Our "UBCD4Win driver pack" for network devices is still included in the latest version, however mass storage drivers have been removed. In their place we now have BTS mass storage drivers. The BTS driver pack includes drivers for many devices, so you should be able to see any SCSI, SATA, etc., hard drive hooked up to your system. **You can update many AntiVirus and Malware tools before building the project. You will see a <CONFIG- to update> at the end of the program's name on the "plugin" screen. So, simply click on the plugin to highlight it and then click the "config" button. It will then automatically update that program with the latest definition file available. There are other times that you need to modify what is enabled or disabled in your build. 1. Building with XP SP1a instead of SP2- please view this FAQ topic for more information. 2. Building with Win 2k3 SP1 source- please view this FAQ topic for more information. 3. Finally of course is the fact that you may want to customized your build, but of course that is all up to you. Again though, please build the project as is or only with plugins removed before you start ADDING plugins. That way if you have problems we know if it's a problem with UBCD4Win or your plugin. If there are some tools included in the project that you do not want feel free to disable them. **Other customization options are discussed on the NEW Customize page of the site. For more details and information on customizing your UBCD4Win build, please visit the new

page.

8. When you are done customizing, "close" the plugin page. Back on the main page go ahead and click "build." 9. If you have built the project previously, you will see this screen (you will want to click

Yes):

10. If this is the first time building, you will see the Windows EULA message:

11. Now the "build" screen:

12. Finished successfully!! Below is the finished screen. You can now click "close", then "exit", and burn your ISO file to CD. Just make sure you select the correct options in your

CD burning software.

What is the Ultimate Boot CD for Windows?

UBCD4Win is a bootable recovery CD that contains software used for repairing, restoring, or diagnosing almost any computer problem. Our goal is to be the most complete and easy to use free computer diagnostic tool. Almost all software included in UBCD4Win are freeware utilities for Windows. Some of the tools inlcuded are "free for personal use" copies so users need to respect these licenses. A few of the tools included in UBCD4Win are paid for and licensed software owned by UBCD4win. On occasion we work with software companies/authors for permission to include their software in our download or have requested their software better support PE. Users can freely share copies of UBCD4Win with friends but selling UBCD4Win for a profit is not acceptable. We have worked hard for many years helping people for free with this project, others should not make money from our hard work. If you are a dialup user having a hard time downloading UBCD4Win, please visit our ordering page. UBCD4Win is based on Bart's PE. Bart's PE builds a Windows "pre-install" environment CD, basically a simple Windows XP booted from CD. UBCD4Win includes network support and allows you the ability to modify NTFS volumes, recover deleted files, create new NTFS volumes, scan hard drives for viruses, etc. Our download includes almost everything you need to repair your system problems. This project has been put together to be the ultimate recovery cd and not a

replacement OS (Operating System). Please visit the "List of Tools" page for a complete list of what is included in the latest version of UBCD4Win. There are requirements for building this CD which can and may make it difficult for everyone to build the project. Please understand that these requirements and restrictions are due to copyright laws, etc. When starting this project I wanted it to be as easy as possible. I wanted it to be a simple ISO file download just like the original Ultimate Boot CD. I had to weigh the ease of build and functionality very carefully. After much thought and research I decided that Bart's PE was the best way to accomplish this task. That decision required a different type of build and more steps for the end user. Yes more complicated, but I prefer to think of these additional steps in a positive way. We provide detailed instructions and our forum for help. Inexperienced users will feel a sense of accomplishment and gain knowledge when they successfully build the CD. Remember that we are a freeware tool. We still have hosting and other costs to pay every month. If UBCD4Win has helped you and you are able to, please consider donating.

How did this project start?

This project was started because of requests from members of the original Ultimate Boot CD yahoo group. Several members wanted a "Windows" version of the Ultimate Boot CD. After a few days no one had volunteered, so I decided that I had enough time to do this and it was my way to give something back to the computing community. The "true" and "pure" ideal of helping people quickly spread, after 3 1/2 years the project continues to grow. April 2, 2004, I created the UBCDWindows group. The first few weeks consisted mostly of discussions on how to accomplish this. We had to decide what should be included and searched for great stuff. After searching and reading a lot of web pages I finally decided that Bart's PE was the best option. One of the first issues I saw was one of the requirements for Bart's PE, an XP CD with SP1. I personally had upgraded to XP right when XP came out so I did not have SP1 on my XP CD. I found several solutions for this issue but manually slipstreaming required several applications and would add more complexity to the project. I didn't like this added complexity but figured we would be able to do something about that. A better solution was created and is discussed below. April 20, 2004, I launched this site. After a few days of getting everything setup I realizing it was easy to setup a forum. So I announced the imminent closing of the yahoo group and requested that everyone join the forum. The project and forum have grown since its start. Member registrations continue to grow and new teams have been created to help the development and support of the project.

The slipstreaming problem needed addressed so I contacted one of my friends that is a programmer. Anonios (author of AutoPatcher) was glad to help and we started working together on creating a slipstreaming application. We worked pretty hard for several weeks creating the application. Well, he did all the coding work and I just helped with testing, minor details, and the dialogue for the prompts. On July 9, 2004 we released AutoStreamer 1.0!! February 23, 2006 is another great day in the history of this project. Only a week after starting a "donation rally" to purchase an OEM license for Bart PE, we hit our goal!! We now own a license for Bart PE! This has helped simplify the project in many ways. Now when you download the project it is ONE download. There are no extra or complicated extraction steps, no "extract this here....delete....extract here", etc. Having the license has given us the ability to change and simplify many other things also. I thank all the great users who helped us purchase the license in order to make it better and easier for EVERYONE!! February 2007, another donation rally and another OEM license for the project!! Thanks to everyone who donated towards our RamDrive license. That annoying little "popup" asking people to purchase RamDrive or error screen are gone. This is a newer version with few restrictions and is capable of creating up to a 2 Gigabyte RamDrive. Thanks again everyone for helping to make the project better and easier for everyone. April 3, 2007 yet more capabilities are added to UBCD4Win. After over a year of my development team working with BTS driverpacks driver team, BartPE support is added to the BTS driverpacks! I can't congratulate or thank the members of my development team that worked on this enough. Bashrat has a great driverpack that he has been working hard on for years and we greatly appreciate his help and support. Kudos to OverFlow for all of his work and time spent working on this implementation.
