BartPE and PE Builder

Bart's PE Builder helps you build a "BartPE" (Bart Preinstalled Environment) bootable Windows CD-Rom or DVD from the original Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 installation/setup CD, very suitable for PC maintenance tasks.

It will give you a complete Win32 environment with network support, a graphical user interface (800x600) and FAT/NTFS/CDFS filesystem support. Very handy for burn-in testing systems with no OS, rescuing files to a network share, virus scan and so on.
This will replace any Dos bootdisk in no time!

Requirements to build:

1. The files from your Windows Installation CD-Rom.
   Supported Windows versions are:
   
   • Windows XP Home Edition (must be slip streamed with Service Pack 1 or higher)
   • Windows XP Professional (must be slip streamed with Service Pack 1 or higher)
   • Windows Server 2003, Web Edition
   • Windows Server 2003, Standard Edition
   • Windows Server 2003, Enterprise Edition
2. PE Builder runs on Windows 2000/XP/2003/BartPE systems.
3. CD/DVD writer if you want to creat a bootable CD/DVD.
