    .iso to bootable flash drive

    I have an .iso of Emergency Multi-boot CD which I would like to be able to boot from a flash drive (I have a PC I'm working on which has no working CD drives). I have Googled and tried and tried to make this work to no avail. Any ideas?

    For one you have probably have to have the files on the drive and not the iso. For another thing your BIOS must have support for booting from a usb device. Check your bios settings.

    My BIOS does support booting from a flash drive. I have tried formatting the drive as bootable and copying the ISO to the drive with no avail.

    No you don't put the iso on there but you put the files that are in the iso on there. You can use winrar to extract the files from the iso.

    Have you tried using UNetbootin - Homepage and Downloads ?
