Old PC CD Boot
Someone asked if there was a way to make an old PC boot from a CD even though the BIOS only recognised floppy drive, A: or B: etc., and hard disk bootable drives.
The answer is yes you can. The tool which allows you to boot from a CD, or indeed many other types of device, is Smart Boot Manager. More information and the download is available here:

I was dubious, but I tried Smart Boot Manager and it worked! Now I can start buying up old PCs off ebay and do something more useful with them, fantastic information! Thanks!
