1, What's new
+) New 'bootpart' command to access boot partition(deep hidden) running within DOS environment
*) Elevate to administrator's right for 'Write USB disk' operation when UAC is turned on (Windows Vista/7/8)
*) Includes boot partition(deep hidden) device driver for Windows PE environment
*) Some minor improvements and bug fixes
2, Download site
http://www.ezbsystems.com/easyboot/download.htm
File information:
QUOTE Latest version: 6.5.3.729
File size: 3,183,744 bytes
MD5: be1107193761b937e4b065502f857fa4 Â
3, Additional information for USB disk with EasyBoot boot menu
QUOTE Update notice:
To support booting from a USB device, some 'run' command in old .ezb menu file (for CD-ROM device) should be changed.
1) 'run' bootable ISO images or floppy images, same commands for CD-ROM and USB disk device.
  Example:  'run winpe.iso'
       'run dos98.img'
2) 'run' boot image files (.bif/.bin) should be treated case by case
  Case #1: boot loaders who supports FAT/FAT32 file system, such as bootmgr/setupldr.bin/grldr, same commands for CD-ROM and USB disk device.
  Example:  'run bootmgr'
       'run setupldr.bin'
       'run grldr'
  Case #2: pure boot sector for CD-ROM (mostly is 2KB in size), such as w2ksect.bin, vistaldr.bin,winpe.bif,msldr.bin, etc, should be replaced with:
    a) run a boot sector file (.bsf) of USB disk, you may create one by UltraISO for DOS/Windows XP/PE/Vista/7/syslinux
     Caution: COMMANDS for CD-ROM and USB DISK is NOT SAME for THIS SOLUTION
    b) directly run setup programs instead of boot image file
  Example:  'run bootmgr' instead of 'run vistaldr.bin'
       'run setupldr.bin' instead of 'run winpe.bif'
    c) run boottable ISO in whole
  Example:  'run winpe.iso' instead of 'run winpe.bif'
       Â
3) As 'bcdw' does not support FAT/FAT32 system, 'bcdw' command should be changed to 'run', 'bcdw :poweroff' should be changed to 'shutdown'
4, How to create a bootable USB drive from bootable ISO
 QUOTE       Â
Â
 Click on 'Burn' button, choose 'Write USB disk' to create a bootable USB device. See attachment for screen shots.
Â
 Tips:
 1) 'USB-HDD+ v2' is recommended for most computers, you may select 'USB-ZIP2+ v2' for old computers
 2) To avoid boot file damage by virus or spam programs, please enable 'create boot partition', which is invisible on Windows   Â
 3) To get more security to avoid boot partition damage, please enable 'Deep hidden', boot partition will be invisible for partition tools
Â
5, Other new commands
 'remount' for changing boot media when booted
 'swap' for remap bootable USB disk with first hard disk
 'vfloppy' emulates a floppy disk in memory, usage: 'vfloppy xxx.img'

@xoben
@Anyone that are interested to launch EasyBoot from USB drive 
Done some test to EasyBoot_v6.5...
There are two different ways in EasyBoot to "write" your EasyBoot build to USB drive.
Method-1: In EasyBoot chose Burn==>Write USB Disk...==>And then chose button "Write"
(you also have option to check "Create Boot Partition" and also choose between different "Write-Methods" typically "USB-HDD" or "USB-HDD+" etcetera).
Method-2: In EasyBoot chose Burn==>Write USB Disk...==>And then chose button "Xpress Boot"==> and chose Xpress Write
If using method-1 contents of EasyBoot build is "written" to USB drive in a way that prohibit "grub-kicker-images" to launch correctly.
You are recommended TO NOT use method-1
If you instead use method-2 (picture below) contents of EasyBoot build is "written" to USB drive in a way so "grub-kicker-images" can be launched correctly
Basically the problem seems to be related to how UltraIso write files to USB drive.
Use method-2 "Xpress Boot" to "write" your EasyBoot build to USB drive.
Yes I know, it takes up to twice the time but is a safer way to perform writing to USB drive!
However we still cannot launch grldr (grub) from EasyBoot menu, even if using "Xpress Boot"!
Hopefully @xoben can sort this out in next version of EasyBoot
I still want to point to that EasyBoot is now fully functional as it is possible to launch WinPE-ISO based on NT5-systems - typically ERD BartPE or similar WinPE.
But you still must use my script "easyboot-iso.script" to integrate WinPE.ISO based on NT5-system (you must check: "Run ISO from RAM" in script when integrating WinPE based on NT5-system.
EasyBoot is now showing its full potential 
Finally - please do a new download of script-collection, as I found a minor bug in script (script halted)
regards

@xoben
Quote: "Hi balder, Â there is no problem to run grldr for both 'Write' and 'XPress Write' method"
Yes you are correct @xoben (as usual)
I made a new download (reinstalled everything) and now it works 
Don't know what went wrong
Thanks for clarifying what I mixed up 
Anyway I'm curios about this:
1. If I use "Xpress Write" it takes close to 3 minutes to finish writing to USB drive.
2. If I chose "Write"-button it takes less than half the time to finish writing to USB drive
Hmmm - what's the difference
And again congratulations to improvements to EasyBoot - impressing is the word!

[B]I keep getting an error message after hitting the "write USB Disk"
"Wrong Parameter: " WriteUSB"
and ideas why?Maybe I'm stupid or something but I have tried this on several machines Winxp, and Win7 and get the same error message(above) or "Error" when I hit the burn tab?
What can I be doing wrong, this latest try was on a dell winxpsp3 machine.
