New Software Tool Makes Creating a Bootable USB As Easy As Burning a CD

IRVINE, Calif., Nov. 5 /PRNewswire/ -- Finally, computer users have a software tool that makes a bootable backup USB. USB Boot Maker, developed by BluestSoft, Inc., (http://www.bluestsoft.com/en/products/usbbm.html), gives users a myriad of options when it comes to extending the heft of their hard drive. Priced at $89.99, USB Boot Maker delivers a burnt USB that can boot to run your favorite application, instead of having to run from FD/CD/DVD.

"USB Boot Maker is a breakthrough product because it fills an important niche," said BluestSoft founder Mike Inamine. "While there are many CD-burning software products on the market, this is the first USB-burning software to be available at a value price point."

Designed by Inamine and his chief software engineer, who have more than 40 years of industry experience between them, USB Boot Maker is user-friendly and offers endless options. "It's as simple as burning a CD," said Inamine. "But USB has so much more to offer."

Supporting Windows 7, Vista and XP operating systems, USB Boot Maker allows users to run their favorite application without the need for a CD/DVD burner - a real plus for Netbook users.

It can also:

-- Create a bootable USB from a selected media or file - This allows users to create a backup USB from FD/CD/DVD or an image file (ISO or IMG) that they can specify.

-- Create a generic bootable USB - This will burn a generic OS image of Windows PE, Linux, or FreeDOS into USB. After booting from the generic bootable USB, you are able to run your favorite applications.

"USB Boot Maker complements our current product base by adding a USB bootability, which enables the product to run faster, run an OS independently, and save any data on the USB," noted Inamine, who founded the company in 2005. "Another advantage is that USB has a larger capacity and faster loading and reading speed than a CD/DVD. So whether you're copying a graphics-rich game, images or digital video, USB Boot Maker saves you time and money."

The benefits of this breakthrough application include:

-- Creates Windows 7/Vista Installation USB by copying Windows 7/Vista Installation CD/DVD to USB memory - allowing users to use the USB for installing the programs into their PC.

-- With built-in Windows PE2.0, Linux (KNOPPIX), and FreeDOS, users can create an OS bootable USB and run each OS from it. This allows users to run emergency system recovery or data backup.

-- Allows users to create a back-up USB from CD image or CD-ROM and use the USB for installing the application into their PC.

-- Option to copy necessary boot CDs/DVDs into a USB and play games by booting to run from it.

-- Create a back-up USB from a music/movie CD/DVD and play them from the USB.

"The one thing our product doesn't do is support the back-up of copyright-protected CD/DVD," said Inamine. "It is the user's responsibility to obtain any necessary permissions."
