Data Backupper BootCD only for the computer where it was created?

edited August 2015 in AOMEI Products Support

I created with v3.1 on Win7 64bit a Data Backupper BootCD on computer 1. Later I put this BootCD into DVD drive on computer 2 (with 64bit Win7 as well) and try to boot from it.


Unfortunately I was prompted for keyboard layout and if I want to do a win7 system restore here.

No "usual" Data Backupper program GUI was shown.


Why?


Can I only use a BootCD on the computer on which it was originally created or is such a BootCD computer independent?


Why does the BootCD not show the Backupper GUI?

  • Are you sure that your bootCD is made completely? And if it made completely, you should change boot item to CD/DVD to boot, and then you can boot Backupper from bootCD.

  • I created the BootCD at first as an ISO file on a notebook WITHOUT a hardware DVD drive.

    Later I moved the *.iso file to another computer and burned it onto a real DVD media.


    Can it be that the *.iso BootCD creation procedure needs a real, present hardware DVD drive to be able to create a working BootCD?
