Rufus to create bootable USB drives

[Guest10]

http://rufus.akeo.ie/

has anyone on this forum used this tool to create boot-able USB drives? does it really work? any issues if this is used instead of a boot-able CD?

I tried a bunch of different programs, and Rufus was my favorite. The USB drive will boot fine if your motherboard supports it. Of course you will have to configure your Bios to boot from USB.

Rufus is simple and great!

- YUMI
