A graphical Windows boot disc containing many useful applications to repair, recover or clean a PC.

Can also be combined with UBCD for DOS on the one disk.

It is based on Bart’s PE Builder boot disc, and supports the Bart plugins such as Novell Client and other utilities. UBCD also has the benefit of a better menu structure of all the applications, making it easier to find the program you want.
