Create a cd rom on a flash drive. Creating a CD-ROM partition to flash (for Alcor AU6983, AU6984, AU6986 controllers)

I needed to install a system on an old computer.
There was no CD-ROM in the computer, and it was not interesting to install my own, and for a long time I was interested in how to divide my 8 Gb flash drive into several sections. It was not possible to do this by conventional means, because After creating partitions, Windows refused to see the second partition. I found a description about various methods for installing additional drivers for the second partition, but this did not suit me, because. this needs to be installed on every PC you connect to for the first time.
Therefore, I decided to devote Saturday to an interesting case of studying how flash drives are arranged.
I learned a lot about what chipsets are, what to do with a flash drive if it is not detected by the system, where to look for software recovery utilities, and how to put a flash drive into test mode by shorting the legs on the chip. But we will not delve into everything.


1) You need to find out the chipset manufacturer and values VID And PID.
This can be done by downloading and running the ChipGenius v3.0 utility
(be sure to write down or save the data that it will show, because in case of bad firmware, this will help you find the program you need)
2) Then go to the iFlash database page and enter VID or PID into the search bar.
We find which programs are designed to work with your flash drive. (my flash drive was with an SK6211 chip, and the SK6211_20090227_BA program came up to it)
3) If you have a different chip, not from skymedia, then you can not read further.

So:
A). Connect the flash drive to the USB port of the PC.
b). We launch SK6211_20090227_BA.exe
V). In the utility press --> Advanced-->in the window Password enter numbers 123456 and click on the Check button.
The windows will become active.
G). On the menu Code Bank ver. select the latest database. For some, the flash drive was defined in the program (it turned green, Ready) only after that.
e). Next - press Multi-Partition.
In this window: Upper left corner - tick Enable CD-ROM, if you need to split the rest of the CD-ROM, and split the part into 2 more sections (ie, make CD + flash + Flash), then move the slider - set the partition sizes.
Upper right corner - tick Enable CD-Rom Booting(make the CD-ROM bootable) and set the path to the ISO image. The size of the CD-part is set automatically depending on the size of the image. I tried a 2.5 GB image, everything is fine.
e). Be sure to enter the parameter autorun counter- he is responsible for all the glitches associated with the disappearance of the flash CD after several downloads:
turns out autorun counter this is the number of times the flash CD will appear in the system.
If we write 10 (as stated in the instructions), then the flash CD will appear and work exactly 10 flash drive connections.
In order for the image to work indefinitely, you need to write 255 (==unlimited) in this field
source: http://www.mydigit.net/read.php?tid=58732&uid=35139
and). Lun0 and Lun1 are partitions that actually will be seen as a flash drive. If the engine (see above) was not touched, there will be a CD + 1 flash partition, otherwise - a CD and 2 flash drives (the volume of each depends on the position of the engine in the upper left corner).
Here we install:
format - ( Fat or Fat32)
section title - ( format label l).
The first Flash partition can be done - ( Fixed) (i.e. it will be defined not as a flash, but as an HDD),
and also block the partition from being overwritten - ( write protection), immediately writing the necessary files to it, writing the path to the folder with them (but I did not do this, because overwriting protection was not part of my needs).
Click OK and agree to the changes.
h). Further (in the previous window that appears after this, you can set VID And PID(if you want to change the name of the controller manufacturer and its type displayed in CHIP GENIUS - to determine the flash drive by the flashing utility in case of subsequent flashing it won't affect), Serial number flash drives (you can use any) and LED parameters ( LED) - flashing frequency and light intensity, parameter Curr leave equal 100 mA(It is better not to set more, as far as is known, this is the maximum current strength consumed by the USB flash drive).
It is better not to change all other parameters - I don’t know what they are responsible for.
And). Write down your profile name and click " Save" (save the profile), agree to the changes and close this window.
To). Firmware is only possible if the flash drive is in the database (see above).
In this case, it lights up green and it will be written " READY".
Select the profile we saved and click AUTO LLF(AUTO LowLevel Format).
flash drive flashes yellow BUSY"The overwriting process is in progress.
Its successful completion is indicated by the green color and " PASS". Congratulations!

Important Tips!!!
- If the color before starting the firmware (after selecting the last database of supported flash drives) is blue (NO Match) - then you are out of luck (the flash drive is not in the database), wait for the firmware update or look for it yourself, I found the right one the third time.
- If you need to overwrite a new image, be sure to first use the Recovery Disk utility (or the main utility to rewrite the controller firmware without creating a CD partition - clear the Enable CD-ROM and Enable CD-Rom Booting checkboxes, leave only the LUN0 (removeble) partition, and only then change it again, as you need, otherwise there may be an error when flashing)

Thanks for all the tips and tricks.

This method can be useful for computer repairmen, for those who like to “experiment” with software and hardware, as well as for a simple layman who finds himself in a difficult situation.

Creating a bootable CD-ROM area on a USB flash drive

By modern standards, the disk is outdated, and the presence of a disk drive in a computer basically means only its outdated filling. But what if there is no DVD ROM, and the computer does not support installing Windows from a USB flash drive? Unfortunately, we have to deal with reinstalling the OS from time to time, and installing the OS from a disk is still relevant and in demand today. What to do, how to permanently refuse disks? Use USB sticks! Despite the fact that for some, installing from USB causes more problems than from a disk, USB still has many advantages.

  1. PC recovery. Having a USB with a set of emulated disks is more likely to fix an old computer. And it's better than carrying a set of disks with you.
  2. The disks are outdated, they wear out quickly, and when transferred, they quickly become unusable.
  3. The most capacious, even advanced drives, are not able to accommodate such volumes of data as USB drives offer. Plus the reading speed is faster.
  4. The drive is no longer an important part of the PC, and throwing money away just because of the need to load the OS is a waste of money.

And so the general meaning of the operation is that our flash drive would be defined by the computer as a CD rom, that is, the flash drive will have a CD - the area into which the image will be mounted, and the computer will define the flash drive as a CD rom.

Let's walk through the general process of turning a USB flash drive into a DVD-R drive with a disk image mounted on it. Or rather, simply, let's create a USB flash drive with an OS for installation on a computer. This manipulation will save you from the need to use disks when installing the OS and at the same time set boot from a USB flash drive in the BIOS to Boot, plus, if you have an old BIOS computer, it may not have such a function at all. Such emulation of the image and the creation of the visibility of the drive is in one of the flash drive modes, thanks to the efforts of manufacturers. But, unfortunately, the firmware of the chip itself is not disclosed and programs with drivers, manuals and instructions are not officially distributed. You have to look for them all over the internet.

Here I will try to make out point by point what approximately needs to be done to flash a flash drive and mount the image on it. And also below I will give a specific example on the example of Kingston flash drives.

  1. We need to determine the values PID And VID, as well as the chipset manufacturer.

This can be done using the program ChipGenius. The data you receive is best kept. They may be needed in case of unsuccessful firmware. Can they also be recognized using the standard features of Windows itself? That is, through the "Task Manager".

  1. PID or VID is entered into the database on the page http://flashboot.ru/iflash/. There we will find out which programs are designed to work with our flash drive.
  2. And then the theory follows, because in most cases each program differs in interface and algorithm. But in general terms, I will try to theoretically universally explain the subsequent process.
  3. Connecting a USB drive to a PC.
  4. Launching the program, the name of which was determined in paragraph 2.
  5. In the utility, you need to get information about the flash drive and deal with the main interface.
  6. In the settings, enter the data for creating the CD area. Data that you can duplicate from the source from the program's instruction page.
  7. After all that has been done, you will be able to use the flash drive, exactly as a DVD-Rom drive, and the PC will see the image disk written to the USB flash drive as a disk inserted into a CD rom.

For example, you have a Kingston 8Gb DataTraveler 101 flash drive with a Skymedi chip to work with flash drive chipsets, the SK6211_20090227_BA.exe program is running. We connect the USB flash drive, run the program. Click --> Advanced --> in the Password box, enter 123456 and click Check.

In the menu Code Bank ver. select the latest database. Click Multi-Partition.

In the window in the upper left corner, check the Enable CD-ROM checkbox if you need to split it into CD-ROM, and part into flash + Flash sections. Don't forget to set the partition size.

At the top right, the Enable CD-Rom Booting checkbox, that is, make the D-ROM bootable, after that you need to write the path to the OS image.

We prescribe the autorun counter parameter, this parameter is responsible for the number of times downloads from a flash drive, so that the process is infinite, we prescribe the value 255 (==unlimited)

Hello, dear visitors of the Start-Luck blog. Some readers remember those times when we shared our videotapes, CDs, books and then lost them in obscurity, forgetting which bad friend took "our charm".

For modern people, this is already such a rarity. Digital options include recording and re-recording. Even if you want to give something to someone, you can always make a copy with peace of mind and not worry about whether the information will be returned to you or not. It will remain at hand. This is what we will talk about today.

In this article, I will tell you how to transfer from disk to a USB flash drive in a simple way and using an ISO image. I will work on Windows 7, although in fact it is not so important. The steps won't be much different no matter which version you're using.

And, of course, we will not do without video instructions, which will resolve any misunderstanding between me and those who are thirsty for information.

I think we can start now.

Easy way without software

So, first of all, open the "My Computer" section. Then you need to insert your CD or DVD into the drive.

Some laptops do not have a dedicated disk drive. What to do in this case? I think that you already know the answer to this question and have used ISO boot disks more than once. It should be yours now.

If this is the first time you have encountered this problem, then I will explain. I already told you how to do this in one of my previous publications. Thanks to programs such as Daemon Tools, we can easily solve this problem.

You won't have a physical disc, but the computer will start to "think" the CD is in the right drive. Stop for a second, now you need to take a little break from the main task and solve an adjacent one. My article will help you with this. After reading and "inserting" the image into the "drive", return here.

As soon as you have solved the most important task and inserted a physical disk or its image, you will have an autorun window. Click on "View Files".

If the required window is not displayed, then you can right-click on the image or disk so that a dialog menu appears, select the "Open" function, or the same "Autorun" in it.

Now insert the flash drive into the USB port. This goodness is enough on any laptop or computer. Select "Open folder to view files" again. Again, if this does not happen, the right mouse button and the "Open" or "Autorun" function will help you.

As a result, you should have two windows with the "insides" of each of the disks. If this does not happen, just open the CD / DVD, then in a new window go to the "My Computer" section and open the USB flash drive.

Copy files from disk. Click on the desired ones, then the right mouse button and the "Copy" function.

Of course, you can open the disk first and copy files from it, and then "open" the USB and insert everything you need there, but I would not want you to get confused.

Open a second window in which you have files from a USB flash drive, upload them there. Right mouse button and then the "Paste" option.

That's basically it. Problem solved.

Video instruction

In this tutorial video, you can see how to download music to a USB flash drive from a disk - where the buttons are located, in what order to press them, and so on. Everything is very detailed.

If you are confused in my text, then everything will become clear in just 3 minutes.

Some licensed discs with audio files have copy protection. What to do with it? The easiest way is to use special programs that help to remove it.

This method should be treated with great care, since there are no licensed utilities that help to perform this task. The activity is illegal! Therefore, you may have to download files that may contain viruses. Personally, I am afraid of such things. There are too many "values" lurking on my PC.

Considering how active hackers are now, this is a really serious issue. You can read articles such as "" or "" in my style.

Based on the previous words, I do not give you any specific link to the program, and I offer a training video, in the description of which you can find the download URL, I offer only for reference. Know that there is such a way.

Creating an image and then overwriting it

We're moving on to disk images. What is it, I think you already understood. The same disk, only in digital format, intended for sharing with friends, deceiving a computer, they say, something is already inserted into it, and so on.

In general, any image can simply be transferred from a computer to a USB flash drive without problems according to the same principle that I have already described. However, there is an alternative method.

This blog has a detailed article on . In it, I described in detail how to create an image and throw it off, so you can familiarize yourself with it by clicking on the link.

To make this post of mine more useful, I will leave you only a video on this topic, which will allow those who are in a hurry to complete this task faster. I advise others, of course, to read the publication. It details everything that can be useful.

I recommend that you also download the licensed version of this program UltraISO from websiteAll soft . There is too much important information stored on any PC that hackers can use to use pirated utilities with peace of mind. I would not want your personal data to be hacked. The risks are too great.


Don't forget about antiviruses too. Of course, they are unlikely to help from well-known scammers who work on a serious scale, but there are only a few of them, and interest in other people's PCs is now huge. This is very easy money. The phrase “It will never touch me” no longer works. Everyone is interested in you.

You can download a good antivirus from the same Allsoft website. For example, I like NOD32 .


That's all. Don't forget to subscribe to my Vkontakte group . See you again and good luck.

Yes, yes, it is the CD-ROM section, you understood everything absolutely correctly, and now I will teach you everything, but before continuing, let me write one small formality: The author is not responsible to users and (or) other organizations and third parties for any malfunctions, delays, incorrect operation, deletion or loss of any user information, as well as any damage associated with the use of the software posted in this topic.

So first, let's figure out what is a CD-ROM?
The abbreviation CD-ROM stands for Compact Disc Read-Only Memory. In our Russian, this means a CD, the memory of which is read-only.
The urgency of creating such a partition on a USB drive is certainly growing, and there are a variety of reasons for this, most often it is associated with installing an OS or creating a bootable LiveCD. In my case, it is. Due to the hackneyed question of how to make an installation USB flash drive with Windows XP, I repeatedly suggested a similar thought, but since there was no time to deal with this, I was content with the grub4dos bootloader, but in the end I decided to give it up.

So what are the benefits of creating such a CD-ROM partition?
1. The ability to burn any disk image, any size (the only limitation is the volume of the flash drive itself)
2. This CD-ROM partition will be recognized by the system as a CD-ROM drive.
3. The functions of the flash drive will also be retained. The CD-ROM partition will be exactly as large as the weight of the disc image you burn. Let's say if we have a flash drive with a capacity of 16GB and we write a disk image equal to 1GB there, then we will have a CD-ROM partition equal to 1GB, and the remaining 15GB will be like the memory of a regular flash drive.
4. This CD-ROM partition will be recognized by the computer as a physical one, which will allow you to boot from it by setting the BIOS to boot from a USB-CDROM, it will also be possible to boot from the USB flash drive itself.
All this was personally verified by me as follows:
On my 16GB flash drive, I created a CD-ROM partition with the Windows XP installation distribution, which weighs 593MB. The image is original and was recorded "as is". The remaining volume was recorded with the installation distribution of Windows 7. The computer was successfully able to recognize and download what I needed, and there were no conflicts between the bootloaders, because they are located independently of each other.

We will start the creation process a little later. While writing comments, naturally following the rules of the forum.

Now we will look at the process of creating a USB CD-ROM partition on a flash drive controlled by a USBest controller. You can find out under the control of which controller your flash drive is in two ways:
1. Remove the cover of the flash drive and look at the marking of the chip.
2. Use a great program.... MPInfoCheck

So, we run the program and see:
....
A flash drive on the USBest UT165 controller, in my opinion, this one, by the way, is one of the best controllers, since it is defined almost everywhere.

After we know the controller marking, we take the service utility.... UFDUtility (works with controllers (UT162; UT163; UT165; UT190; IT1167; IT1168; IT1169). and run Autorun Manager as shown in the screenshot:
....

All CD-ROM partition created!

So it should be, in the second screenshot you had to select the ports to which your flash drives are connected.

A message from amen51:

The UFDUtility_v3.4.8.0 program "pleased" me with the fact that "the device is not removable":

[hide]

In fact, the program wrote that the device is not connected, and this is not surprising, since this program works with flash drives on the USBest controller, and you have a JetFlash flash drive, which is most likely on the Alcor Micro controller, but I can’t tell which series, I’m not a telepath

A message from amen51:

And what to do with this disaster?
I have Win7 x32 installed. Flash drives: JetFlash TS4GJFV10 (4 GB) and General USB Flash Disk (16 GB).
I made a 4 GB flash drive multiboot - it works fine. I tried to do the same with a 16 GB flash drive. It works only in test mode, and loading from it does not occur.

I can’t say anything about 16GB, because it’s not at all clear what manufacturer you have this flash drive, but about JetFlash I can advise a program that works with flash drives on an Alcor Micro controller (again, if I’m not mistaken, this flash drive works on this controller , this is just my guess).

Create a bootable USB flash drive with Windows XP or txtsetup.sif is corrupted

In the last article on how to create a bootable USB flash drive (Part 1), we looked at how to use the UltraISO program to write the image of the desired distribution to a USB flash drive. But there is some disadvantage in this method.
After writing a Windows XP image to a USB flash drive, when trying to boot from a USB flash drive, an error occurs: txtsetup.sif is corrupted or missing, position 18
This problem is solved as follows:
You must use another way to create a bootable USB flash drive, which is described below.
So, let's begin.
First we need to format our flash drive. Let's do it by standard means.
Go to My Computer, right-click on the flash drive and click "Format"
....

Now open the program WinSetupFromUsb
you can download here WinSetupFromUsb.rar
The program does not require installation.
Choosing Bootice
....
In the window that opens, click Perform Format
....
Select USB-HDD mode (Single Partition) and click Next Step. We agree with everything, and wait until the process is over.
....
....
After we exit all secondary windows, we leave only the main WinSetupFromUsb.
We put a tick in front of Windows 2000/XP/2003 Setup and select our folder with Windows XP, which we previously prepared by unpacking it from the ISO image (you can unpack using WinRAR, for example, or another program).
....
And press GO
....
If everything is successful, then at the end we will see the Job done message.
Congratulations, our bootable USB flash drive with Windows XP is ready.
When the computer boots, we see a boot window with 2 items: Start PLoP boot manager
Windows XP/2000/2003 Setup
We select item 2, in it the item starting with the words First Part ... and start installing Windows XP from a USB flash drive.
By the way, here are described possible problems that may arise when installing this Windows XP from a USB flash drive, and their solution.

[hide]

How to burn a flash drive to avoid this error, for this you need the WinSetupFromUsb program, there were no problems with the old version of this program, but the new version of this program lacks some items, without which it is not possible to correctly burn the Win XP image to a USB flash drive. Does anyone know of an easier way to write XP to a flash drive so that this error does not occur?
I want to use the latest version of WinSetupFromUsb, maybe someone knows how to use it correctly to write the XP image to a USB flash drive?

On one forum I also read "copy txtsetup.sif from I386 to the root of the memory card and rename I386 to $WIN_NT$.~BT", but this did not help me, the error does not occur, the netbook just automatically restarts.

A message from BEOWULF1986:

When trying to install Win XP on a netbook from a USB flash drive recorded via Ultra ISO, an error message "txtsetup.sif is corrupted" appears

It is easier to reprogram the flash drive so that it is physically defined as a CD-ROM device. The process is completely reversible. I can help with this.

Thanks, I didn't think about that, I'll try it now.

A message from BEOWULF1986:

Please write how to make a CD-ROM from a flash drive? I did not find a way for my USB flash drive (Silicon Power LuxMini 720 8GB) on the PS2250 controller. Is it possible to make a CD-ROM from a flash drive without a controller (SD memory card)?

As for memory cards, I immediately say that it will not work, we will try with a flash drive. First, check if your flash drive is recognized by the program in the attachment?

All the same, I made a CD-ROM partition on a Silicon Power LuxMini 720 8GB flash drive. More accurately identified its controller, it turned out to be PHISON PS2 ****** 0-F. Burned a Windows XP SP3 image to this CD-ROM partition. Windows and BIOS can see 2 partitions of the flash drive (regular and CD-ROM) without any problems, I choose a bootable USB CD-ROM, the installation of Windows XP starts, the error "txtsetup.sif is corrupted" no longer occurs. A convenient thing is this CD-ROM partition, you can burn any Live CD on it and pull out the necessary files from the C drive of the killed Windows before reinstalling, or try to restore Windows without reinstalling. To create a partition, I used Phison MPALL v3.29.0B.

strange last time he did it, but everything happened quickly and there was no drive. Everything worked out, but immediately when you start installing Windows, when checking devices, there is a blue screen)))

In general, right now I deleted the drive and I'll try it .... - the program has already been updated +1 ****** 0 times, maybe it will come out if not, then you'll have to torment the flash drive with the drive again.

Allows you to create a CD-ROM partition on a flash drive at a low level, which will be perceived by the BIOS of the motherboard and the operating system as a regular CD-ROM. At the same time, Generic Autorun Disk appears in the list of motherboard BIOS devices, in the CD Drive section, from which you can boot. The size of such a CD-ROM depends only on the size of the boot disk image deployed on it. Since this partition is perceived as CDFS, it becomes possible to use multiboot using BCDW. Before running AlcorMP, you need to create a boot disk image.

On a Transcend JetFlash V33 4GB, I have created a bootable CD-ROM with a capacity of about 1.2 GB on which, using BCDW, it is possible to choose to boot three different BartXPE RAM-BOOT images. Ramboot image loading speed into memory when using CD-ROM on motherboards with BIOS AMI (ASUS P5Q, P5KPL and others) is very high. Boot.img with a volume of 480MB is downloaded in 40 seconds. Under the same conditions, it takes more than 2 minutes to load an image from a regular USB-Flash partition. Probably, AMI BIOS for CD-ROM immediately enables High Speed ​​USB2.0 mode. Unfortunately, several boards with BIOS AWARD 6.0 showed disastrous results, both with a CD-ROM and with a regular USB-Flash partition. Loading Boot.img with a volume of 480MB into memory is more than 10-15 minutes. On some CD-ROM cards, the BIOS is not recognized and therefore fails to boot. At the moment, Generic Autorun Disk fails to load a regular (non-RAMBOOT) assembly of BartXPE - the boot device is lost.

Do not connect the flash drive on which the CD-ROM was created while the AlcorMP program is running just idle (for example, to see the serial number), this CD-ROM is no longer recognized in the BIOS, although there are no changes in the Windows environment. If you did, you will have to re-create the autorun CD-ROM.

So, to create a CD-ROM, you need to perform the settings as described in the article "Software repair of a USB Flash Drive using the AlcorMP utility", except for the following tab.

Figure 2.1.

In the Mode tab, select the AutoRun item, and the ISO Set pop-up window should appear. Select ISO Mode and specify the path to the pre-prepared boot image. If nothing pops up when you select AutoRun, then you have a corrupted AlcorMP.ini or the utility itself (download the working program AlcorMP (081208)). The section that is responsible for the location of the image looks like this:

AlcorMP.ini file


ReserveUserSize=0
GPI=0
LoaderPath=C:9384.iso
ReservePath=C:Reserve.img
Win98=0
IMGorISO=1
ISOPath=C:pebuilder.iso

When using the settings for Pure Disk (normal flash drive), there are no lines:

IMGorISO=1
ISOPath=C:pebuilder.iso

The final settings window for creating a CD-ROM looks like this.

Figure 2.2.

Next, we act as described in "Software repair of a USB Flash Drive using the AlcorMP utility", after the program is completed (and the window is closed) and the USB Flash Drive is distorted, we get the following picture.
The XPE disk (G:) 1.2 GB is the CD-ROM, the TRANSCEND disk (H:) is a partition of a regular Flash Drive, FAT32 2.7GB (see Figure 2.3).

List of controllers on which CD-ROM is successfully created - AU6983, AU6984, AU6986.
Failed to create CD-ROM partition on AU6982 controller. If you managed to create a CD-ROM using AU6980, AU6981, AU6982, AU9380, please report it in the forum, mentioning the flash drive name, controller type, PID&VID, Alcor utility version and other features (if any).

Figure 2.3.

Questions about creating a CD-ROM partition on Alcor controllers are discussed in this forum thread.
