I don't why the Bootable CD that i make which is composed of winxp,me,98,95,311,dos, does work insome computers (pentium 1 - p4) but not in some others even a p4 , i even tried to set the cd drive as the only boot option , but i get the errors that the disk is not bootble (IO error...), i thought maybe the computer does not support it, but it does not have any problem with lets say original winxp pro bootable cd, to boot from it, then i though it is the cd drive, and i changed to anothers one which i worked in another computer , but again i got the same error,
why is it that some computers can not read cd's made by easy boot,
(and i have the latest easyboot version)

please some body help me, if u know the problem,
thanx in advance.

This problem relates to BIOS, which does not support int13/42H properly.

Can you post the error message for detailed check?
