Hello All,
Thank you for your wonderful product!!!! Just bought it last night and it works great. Anyway, I work for a Pharmaceutical Firm, and I am a systems engineer that supports the rest of the techs on the day to day routine. We were asked to update the bios on every laptop and desktop of the compaq systems used there. the techs would have to carry 15 diskettes in order to update. I used your program to create images with the bios diskettes that compaq offers to make a bootable cd. the desktops have images already made, but the laptops have a config.sys file that points to the a: drive. How do i edit the config.sys to access the image on the bootable cd? The config.sys file looks like this on the SP21036 SERVICE PACK FOR THE M300:
buffers = 20
files = 15
shell = a:\rompaq.exe /!
Any ides fellas? Thanks in advance. Jeff Nelson

You can do it this way:
1) Make a image of the first bootable floppy by EasyBoot "Tools->Make Floppy Image", named seed.img
2) Create a large (15X1.44MB), blank image by "Tools->Create New Floppy Image", named compaq.img, use seed.img as "seed image"
3) Add all files on your 15 floppys to compaq.img by UltraISO or WinImage
4) Put compaq.img to 'c:\easyboot\disk1\ezboot'
Then you can use 'run compaq.img' to update BIOSs. Because drive A: is created automatically, do not worry about it.
