Thanx for the info. i will release a new version soon.
I'm working on another program now. (creating a bootable windows xp cd with the service pack 2 if you have the original windows xp cd (with service pack 1 or without it) and the service pack 2 patch)
Hey exo, don't make to much work, there is already such a prog, it's called nLite.
But you could do a thing were you can (as well) insert other (windows related) things, like DirectX Updates, runtime libraries and such things... that would be great....
But back to business: all the new created images have (if you mount them) a new name: autoboot. Is there any way to change that? A insert name for (mounted) image name... okay, I can rename the image but not the real name... you understand what I mean?

....wtf..you are right friend.. i will fix it now. I will make the program to give the same name for the real cd name and the image file name (The name you give in the game name box)

Some new fixes:
- Some fixes in the code made the program faster.
- Other smaller bug fixed
- Added option to not remove any dummy file.
- Log windows shows now in the end the total duration.
- Fixed a bug when opening ExoBoot without a cd-rom in the first drive.
- Fixed a bug when an important file was missing from the ExoBoot\Settings folder.

ok. download the file that i have upload in a previous post and tell me if it works. don't worry about the error with the unavaliable devices. This is happening because you haven't a cd-rom on your cd-rom drive. you can still use the program without problem

no still the same says run time error 713 class not registered also says that file you gave above needs to be installed? All the other versions you have worked the only reason I want to use this version is that in this latest version you have the option of removing dummy files that's all I want to use. Could just use the 1.26 version or the 1.21 and just add the dummy remover? I hope by adding that file to the that it won't mess up my pc. It did say that users should not go in that file.

try to update visualbasic .dll from microsoft site...

I checked the site out theres like 7 visulbasic downloads from there maybe you can give me a clue to which one to get?

Hey exo what would happen if I do a cd to cd selfbootable if the cd is already seldbootable? If it would be okay it would get rid of those dummy files I wanted to get rid of? But 1.21/1.26 would the program let me do it though?

Hey Exo my friend, hope to see a new release soon...
The changes seems all great...
Hope it will work on the service pack 2 of winxp, because that seems the prog of Davv13... a friend of mine have the same prob and he has the same problem!
Davv13 do you have the SP2 installed?

No sp2. You need to dl vis-basic 6 from mircosoft website the link is above because exo is using tools from that program. Let us know if that fixes the problem.

OK, this is my situation. I own a Dreamcast console and some games, and sometime ago I had the idea to search for a Dreamcast emulator for my PC so that I didn't have to switch on all those cables every time I wanted to play Dreamcast games. I discovered Chankast, but I still haven't found a way to play those games I have bought in my PC through this emulator. I heard that in order to play these games I had to make my original games self-bootable. So, what I'm asking for is that someone tells me what steps should I take in order to manage to play these games on my PC, because I think I've already tried everything. Thank you for your attention.
