Folder where rescue disk files will be saved before burning the CD
If you are not creating an emergency disk for the first time, this folder will
already contain a set of files made the last time. To use files saved
previously, check the corresponding box.
Note that a previous version of the rescue disk files will contain outdated
threat signatures. To optimally analyze the computer for viruses and to
restore the system, we recommend updating threat signatures and
creating a new version of the rescue disk.

The Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2 installation CD
After entering the paths to the folders required, click
Next
. PE Builder will start up
and the rescue disk creation process will begin. Wait until the process is
complete. This could take several minutes.
17.10.1.2. Creating an .iso file
After PE Builder has completed creating the rescue disk files, a
Create .iso file
window will open.
The .iso file is a CD image of the rescue disk, saved as an archive. The majority
of CD burning programs correctly recognize .iso files (Nero, for example).
If this is not the first time that you have created a rescue disk, you can select the
.iso file from the previous disk. To do so, select
Existing .iso file
.
17.10.1.3. Burning the disk
This Wizard window will ask you to choose whether to burn the rescue disk files
to CD now or later.
If you chose to burn the disk right away, specify whether you want to format the
CD before burning. To do so, check the corresponding box. You only have this
option if you are using a CD-RW.
The CD will start burning when you click the
Next
button. Wait until the process
is complete. This could take several minutes.
17.10.1.4. Finishing creating a rescue disk
This Wizard window informs you that you have successfully created a rescue
disk.
