Hiren Boot Usb For Mac

Thanks to USB sticks it's now possible to put ISO images onto them and then boot the computer straight from the stick instead of burning them out to CD or DVD. This is a real plus if you don't have an optical drive in your machine. Depending on the speed of your pen stick USB could be much faster than using even the fastest ROM drives. There are several tools available for all kinds of disc images to be written to USB, but each image could use a different loader to boot from which means there isn't one single foolproof way of putting any image onto USB stick.

For example, a useful tool to put Windows 7 onto USB called WiNToBootic might be good for Windows 7, but is of no use for other ISO images. As most of us know, one of the best all round recovery and repair CD's is Hiren's BootCD and has long been one of the most valuable discs you could have in your repair toolkit. But getting Hiren from it's default distribution format of ISO onto USB isn't completely straightforward and you can't just grab any ISO to USB tool and expect it to be successful.

The 'official' method to achieve Hiren to USB direct from the Hiren website is getting a little old now and involves manually formatting the stick, installing the boot loader and then copying the files over from the ISO yourself. Thankfully there are much easier ways to get the job done with little more than a few mouse clicks.

Here's 5 easy ways to install Hiren's BootCD onto USB stick with the minimum of fuss, all you need is a copy of the Hiren's BootCD ISO. The good news is that none of these tools need to be installed on your machine to be able to do it because they're all portable.

Rufus is a great little tool that can write a number of different ISO images onto USB. In addition to Hiren it can also write a number of Linux and Windows based images, and also install a version MS-DOS or FreeDOS which is useful for such tasks as BIOS flashing. There's also the option to run a multiple pass scan to check the USB stick or a memory card for bad block errors.

Using Rufus to write Hiren onto USB could barely get any easier, simply run the program and make sure your correct USB stick is selected (it will format all devices it writes to beforehand). Then click the browse for ISO button (arrowed) and locate the Hiren ISO image file. Click Start to write. You don't need to change any other options unless you know what you're doing. There's also a useful log file button which can give you more detail if there's a failure in the process.

Rufus works with Windows XP and newer operation systems and is proven to be one of the fastest tools around at doing this type of task.

2. SARDU

SARDU is certainly a powerful tool for creating bootable USB sticks including multiple boot options. In this program a lot of the effort is taken out of the process of you finding the ISO images you want to include yourself. Most of the antivirus, utility, Linux and Windows images supported from within the program can be downloaded directly from within the SARDU program itself, or you will be pointed to the relevant website to get the ISO. Simply click the button on the image you're interested in to find out more or download.

Ironically Hiren isn't one of those images that can be downloaded from SARDU so you will already need to have it, but creating a USB Hiren is very easy in spite of the wealth of options and functions available. After you download and extract the SARDU zip you will need to copy the Hiren ISO into the ISO folder so it gets picked up by the program. After that run the sardu.exe or the sardu_64.exe.

Go to the Utility tab and make sure the Hiren's BootCD entry has a tick by it, if not, check you have put the ISO file in the correct folder, it also needs the word 'Hiren' somewhere in the file name. Then click 'Search USB' for your pen stick to get picked up, and finally click the blue 'Make a USB' button underneath.

Download SARDU

3. UNetbootin

This tool also has the ability to directly download a number of Linux, antivirus and utility ISO images from the original developer websites in addition to images you already have. There is also an interesting feature that will install the ISO onto your hard drive partition without destroying your data if you don't have a USB stick. A function best left to experienced users.

Although UNetbootin can create a Hiren distribution on USB stick, there is a problem with the initial Hiren boot menu, but that can be easily rectified. When you run the program, select the Diskimage radio button and then use the button to browse for the Hiren ISO. Make sure Type is set to the default 'USB Drive' and choose your pen stick's drive letter from the Drive drop down. OK starts the process.

If you run the USB stick now the main menu will not function correctly and Mini XP will be missing for one thing. To correct this, open the pen stick in Explorer, go into the hbcd folder and rename the isolinux.cfg file to syslinux.cfg. Then copy it and go back in to the root of the pen stick, and paste the file overwriting the original syslinux.cfg file. This will put the original menu back.

UNetbootin is cross platform with support for Windows 200, XP, Vista, 7, Linux or Mac OS X. The resulting bootable USB's will only be Windows compatible though.

4. Universal USB Installer

Universal USB Installer is another really easy program to use and requires very little effort from the user to get the Hiren ISO onto USB. Like SARDU and UNetbootin it too has the facility to download a vast array of Linux and other distributions by directly sending the link to your browser for download. A tick box will appear in step 1 if a download is available. Hiren's BootCD is not downloadable using this method though.

Start the program and select Hiren's BootCD from the drop down (it's near the bottom), and then click to browse for the ISO on you computer. Step 3 will then become visible where you can select the USB stick's drive letter and choose whether to format the device before writing the data. When you click Create there will be a confirmation dialog of the following actions to be performed.

Download Universal USB Installer

5. YUMI

YUMI (Your Universal Multiboot Installer) is by the same developer as Universal USB Installer above (pendrivelinux.com) and is quite similar, but offers the added ability of making your USB stick multi boot complete with its own boot menu.

Usage is almost the same as Universal USB Installer apart from the interface is laid out in a slightly different order. Select your USB stick and whether you want to format it first, then find and select Hiren's BootCD from the list of distributions. Browse for the ISO you already have and finally click the Create button.

When the process completes a window will pop up asking if you want to add another distribution to the USB stick thus creating a multi boot device. If you choose to do this, it will take you back to the main window above where you can select another ISO image to be written to the stick.

Pretty much 100% working solution is burning damn iso to media and run from it in old fashion way ! No fuss, no problems, no headache simply working almost every time. In compare to creation of USB Bootable media still faster and booting it is assured ! Not so with USB ! Way to much problems in process ! It would be better if developers are posting workable usb sticks images and user simply re-flash their own sticks ! I give up on USB Live Bootable Media ! If this isn't working first time its likely that it would not work second time and further … To much negative experience !

Burning Hiren to CD is the fallback solution but a lot of PCs and laptops these days don't have ROM drives. Writing Hiren to USB and loading it will be much faster IF you use a reasonable speed USB flash drive. And by using one of these methods it works every time, that's why this article exists…!

way better than even hiren's very own instructions.

yumi is my choice as i already have a few distros on it.

That Universal USB Installer tool is an amazing tool with out any doubt. Its best for those people who need tons of tools for Installing different OS on different machines and troublshooting systems using Hiren's boot USB pen drive.

Hi Buddy
Great Job!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for this! I had downloaded hirens on a mac and was not sure if unetbootin would work. Fortunately, I still have a ten year old Windows laptop which I used to edit the .cfg files. I wish I had thought about it before as I would have just downloaded hirens to that pc. One more caveat was that I had to change the sata setting in the bios to ide. That way hirens recognized my drive and I was finally able to get back on my win8 device. Many thanks to raymond.cc!

This kind of compilation software provides a compilation of programs to help resolves most and some uncommon Internet and computer issues like driver failure, intermittent internet connection and other computer malfunctions.

When it comes to having a certain PC streamlined, base lined, or simply reformatted, there are various ways to do so. Many resort to using the traditional clean install, where the primary driver is reformatted, thus leaving the PC clean and new, and the only thing that is very tedious to do afterwards are none other than installing once again the drivers or hardware installed on the computer, which usually take 2 or 3 hours to finish. What more if the computer is having a problem to boot or load the operating system? What if the BIOS (Basic I/O or Input / Output System) becomes corrupt thus not able to access the operating system like Windows or Mac, and not being able to access the files? Well, there is a solution to this, and it's another easy to use software: Hiren's BootCD.

Partition Tools

Partition means to divide a certain part of a hard drive for backup and system files, like separating a part from the whole. In most computers, the primary disk is C:, since it hold the operating system and program files. When a hard drive on the computer is partitioned, there are 2 independent drives, the primary for the OS, and the other for backup files. Since the 2 drives are independent, the drives work isolated and when becomes corrupt, the other is not affected. Partition Tools not only help in creating a new partition while there is still an open operating system, but it also helps manage and control the use of these partitioned drives. As a computer user, the person may opt to modify, resize the total capacity or delete any partitions made within the computer through the compiled list of programs which include Macrium Reflect, Partition Image and Partition Saving as one of the programs included. And that way, the creation of hard drive partitions without the need of installing an OS like Windows, Linux or Mac is lessened, which is the main goal of these computer programs, that is to add, modify or remove computer drive partitions without compromising the reinstallation of an Operating System.

Backup & Recovery

Files maybe sometimes irretrievable due to being accidentally deleted or the file was not recognized by the computer system. Although the search feature in Windows may prove worthy, it sometimes leads to no files being found even though the file is available and still on the said hard drive. Another thing to note is the backup and recovery of the files from a computer. People may never know when disaster strikes and files have already been missing or deleted somehow without the user noticing. BootCD has a list of programs that can be used to backup, recover and retrieve files easily and with no hassle. Aside from backup and retrieve purposes, some files that are backed up can be also corrupted and certain programs can help in recovering and making the file corrupted accessible to use. Now, the main purpose of having programs loike this is to ease the burdens of backing, thoug it may be a good practice. Software like these include GetDataBack, HDD Scan and Recuva, from the makers of the CCleaner software, Piriform.

Antivirus Tools

Most computers require an antivirus program. An antivirus program can be defined as a certain computer program designed to program and maintain the computer secure, meaning free of viruses and corrupt data. It also helps in maintaining computer performance in tip-top shape, so as to maintain the integrity of the hardware and system itself. Hiren's BootCD has a number of free antivirus and can be used immediately. There are also a number of hard drive cleaners if ever there is a chance that the computer is already infected with malware, spyware, Trojan or any other virus. Aside from these purposes, some antivirus does not take much or hog the system resources and work in the background not unless the computer is idle for a time being, that way processes of other programs that take more power and resources can be given priority. Some programs included are Avira AntiVirus, SpyBot: Search & Destroy, and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware.

Testing Tools

Maintaining a certain PC is a craft. It's hard work in the process. The BootCD software has programs that can help in maintaining computer stability. It also has programs to check errors on the hardware installed. Aside from these, a certain program can estimate the life of hard disk or hardware installed. Aside from the fact that can estimate and test a computer for known and unusual hardware activity and hardware life, it also tests a certain computer component for any possible errors it can make which can render the PC unusable or corrupted. It can also monitor faults in RAM (Random Access Memory) or the memory for storing processes. Aside from RAM, it can also monitor possible faults in devices like the hard drive, CD Drive even the USB (Universal Serial Bus) ports. The variety of software that can be used can also monitor the physical aspect of the device or driver installed. It can give a report that a certain computer component has physical damage and the user has to check if it has an error in placement or the device is really defective.

Password Tools

Passwords are an important security feature in most systems. But as time passes by, a certain user may forget such passwords. The BootCD software contains programs like Autologon, WindowsGate, or Windows Key Finder help manage and remember passwords for forgetful PC users. Certain programs also provide password encryption and requirement for hard drive writing or removal of files or simply to secure the net as well.

Mini Windows XP

A simple version of Windows XP is made as an option to be used in cases that require a separate or independent OS, like in a scenario that a certain computer has been filled with viruses. That way, another OS is working on the installed Operating System, and the user can use any available program to clean such viruses without having the need to reformat.
