Bootdisks are not copied, they are created, and yes there is a difference.

See here.. (http://www.computerhope.com/boot.htm#08)

Images of many bootdisks can be downloaded from bootdisk.com

Good luck

BTW is it legal?

Who knows what he wants? He hasn't been back.  ::)

www.bootdisk.com has it all, though and it is legal.

or u can backup entire disk (http://www.acronis.com/homecomputing/products/trueimage/)
, it is more than creating disk.
u keep all ur data save (say, for in case).

well, as far as i undertood abey is fear for his data.
so, why doesn't he backup his HDD?
it's easier to fulfil than creating disk in Windows and his  data will be save 100%
is that clear now?
