"About & Usage
This ISO is designed to recover your Windows 7 from an unbootable state caused by the installation of a loader. Maybe you face the blue screen of death or you get caught in a reboot loop, this is the all in one solution for you to fix that and find an activation mode that works for your system without ever installing a loader.
Basically to test activation modes you insert the CD and try each mode -- default, alternative and older. You then have to install the ASUS serial and certificate, just check the "Hello world" text file within the ISO for information on how to do that. If the system reports activated then thats the mode that works for you. Next just remove the CD, reboot the system and then install my loader application with the same mode you used via the CD
How to recover
To restore your Windows 7 to it's original boot state just select the Windows 7 recovery option for your system, either 32 bit or 64. Next select command prompt and issue the command "fixme" (without quotes).
Note
Activation is designed for Windows 7 Ultimate only unless you use an OEM SLP serial found here at MDL."

"To clear some things up this is 311MB which contains the live loader and 2 full recovery images, one for 32bit and one for 64bit. I picked early on to use the complete recovery suite so that the ISO will always be able to recover you in extreme situations even if you no longer have your Windows 7 disk.
To install to USB I'm not sure if the standard approach would work, with that said though I think you can copy all the contents of the ISO to USB and then use grubinst to set the USB as bootable much like woebetide suggested.
The ISO was designed for standard setups, PC's that may only have Windows 7 installed. Obviously from an ISO I'm limited as to what I can do where as with the standalone loader that installs to your system it's allot more flexible on the more advanced setups.
Another thing I should mention is that this doesn't install the loader, nor does it carry a loader version with it. You simply find a mode that works for your system and then install the loader under that same mode by downloading the latest version from here at MDL. Of course you can use your standard Windows 7 disk to recover you if you know how but I created this ISO to save headaches and back and forth testing of the different loader modes.
Why run this at all? Well if your shall we say a beginner or maybe you just want to quickly test activation modes or maybe you have a bunch of PC's that you want to test if a loader can emulate SLIC 2.1 on then this speeds up the whole process without actually changing the BIOS or anything on the system."
