I’m not going to lie.  My last job was spent making house calls and fixing everyones computers.  90% of the time it was because they didn’t have any antivirus or the AV they were using was the trial that came with the Laptop when they got it from Best Buy.

Having Antivirus isn’t a fool-proof system but then again there never will be.  But hey, it’s the best place to start.  Don’t browse naked!

Have you ever been in a bind where your pc crashed and you need it to get in to get a file, or a virus got into a friends computer and it was so bad that you couldn’t get into to it to run a virus scanner.(shouldn’t be surfing that N0Rp, lol) Well today my friend I’m going to show you how to build a bootable usb tool kit and be able to boot into any pc and be able to extract files as well as to  run a virus scanner and an antispyware scanner from a miniature version of Windows XP, and run many other tools. Our baseline for our toolkit will be Hiren’s Boot CD. Lets go ahead and get our hands dirty. (no not like that, god get your head out of the gutter, lol)

What You Need

You will need a USB flash drive, 2Gb should be more than enough
A copy of USBFormat (available here)
A copy of grub4dos (available here)
A copy of AnytoISO to extract ISO’s (available here)
and finally a copy of Hiren’s Boot CD (available here)

Formatting the USB Flash Drive

ok lets start off by preparing our USB flash drive.

• Open up USBFormat.exe
• Make sure under device your flash drive is selected.
• for the file system select FAT32
• go ahead and give it a volume name if you wish (I named mine USBTLKIT)
• click on start to go ahead and format the USB flash drive (Warning: this will erase everything on your flash drive, please back up any important information that you may have on it)

(Reference to the picture below for guidance)

Setting up grub4dos on your flash drive

Sweet, now that we have our flash drive formatted we can continue on to installing grub4dos on our flash drive.

• Open up grub4dos.exe
• click on the radio button for disk, select your flash drive from the drop down menu
• once you have selected your flash drive, click on the refresh button located under the Part List section
• once refreshed select Whole Disk (MBR) under the part list drop down menu
• Click on install and you are set, woot, woot!

(Reference to the picture below for guidance)

grub4dos will go ahead and edit the grldr file and the menu.lst file located in the directory of grub4dos

• go ahead and copy these files over to your flash drives root directory

Extracting Hiren’s ISO with AnytoISO

Now that we have configured grub4dos to be compatible for our flash drive, we are now going to extract our toolkit on to the flash drive to make it work.

• Install AnytoISO on your system and follow the steps that it has to install
• once AnytoISO is installed, go ahead and open AnytoISO.exe
• click on Open Image (browse to the directory where you have Hiren’s boot CD downloaded)
• Select the Hiren’s ISO and click open
• Click on select folder and browse over to the root of your flash drive and click ok
• Click on Extract (at this point, the files on the ISO will be extracted to the flash drive)
• Exit out of the AnytoISO application.

We are done!!!!!

Wow, we have finished our creation, you know have a bootable USB Flash Drive loaded with tools to do some serious work. Go ahead and test out your creation. Start up a computer and make sure you your Bios is set up to boot from USB devices. (refer to your computers documentation on how to set this up) With this USB toolkit you will be able to change passwords, clone hard drives, boot into a miniature version of Windows XP to extract files run virus scans on a system and many, many other things, the tasks are limitless.

Enjoy your creation and let me know what you think of it in the comments.
