Step 5
Insert the BootCD (9.7 or newer) in the CD Drive and Copy everything from CD to USB Flash Drive.

Step 6
Test Your USB Drive 

Added Notes: We can additionally put any booting ISO files here such as WIN XP, Hiren's boot, or even windows 7 to make it bootable directly via USB ports (USB sticks, external HDDs...)
Change the content of the menu.lst file to as following:
timeout 0
default 0
title Boot Acronis Disk Director Suite ISO - (0xFF)
find --ignore-floppies --set-root /ADDS.ISO
map /ADDS.ISO (0xff) || map --mem /ADDS.ISO (0xff)
map --hook
chainloader (0xff)


Then change the name of the ISO file we want to boot up to ADDS.ISO as we define it earlier in the menu.lst or you may change the ADDS.ISO in the file to whatever you want (three parameters must be changed to the same one indeed).
