Make your pendrive bootable with MakeBootable

If you are facing some critical windows problems, and the CD-ROM is not functioning ,definitely you will need a bootable pendrive.
 MakeBootable is a free software which lets you convert your pendrive into a bootable media. After making your pendrive bootable with MakeBootable, you can use your pendrive like a windows xp bootable cd.
  MakeBootable is an easy, freeware application.It consists of a single executable file and requires no installation.To use MakeBootable, run the MakeBootable executable file.On the main window,select the USB device you wish to make bootable.One important thing is you need to convert the pendrive into FAT format.(It doesn't support FAT32 and NTFS file systems).Next,you need to change the boot up setting in the system BIOS.With your USB device still plugged, restart your system. Enter the BIOS setup menu and change the boot device setting. Select USB Device as First Boot device in the boot device priority. If the boot-up files are created in the USB drive, select USB-HDD or USB-ZIP (preferred). If the boot-up files are created in the floppy drive of your device, select USB-FDD (for pen drive that supports security mode).

Once done, save and exit the BIOS setup. Now, you should be able to boot up with your USB device.
