To prepare a bootable device for Windows: Therefore, even if the bootloader does not need the flag, it has to be set to start the boot code from BIOS.User's Guide for Windows Password Changer 2.5 Boot Disk Boot Disk Creator helps you prepare a bootable CD/DVD/Blu-ray or USB Flash mass storage device that you can use to start a machine with a damaged hard drive and recover data, recover partitions, wipe or erase data, create a disk image or repair security access issues. Some BIOSes test if the boot flag of at least one partition is set, otherwise they ignore the device in boot-order. There are many disk editors that can modify the boot flag, such as Disk Management in Windows, GPartEd in Linux, and fdisk. Other boot loaders used by third-party boot managers (such as GRUB or XOSL) can be installed to a master boot record and can boot primary or extended partitions, which do not have the boot flag set. DOS and Windows allow only one boot partition to be set with the boot flag. The active partition is the partition where the boot flag is set. In some cases it is used by Windows XP/2000 to assign the active partition the letter "C:". Its primary function is to indicate to a MS-DOS/ MS Windows-type boot loader which partition to boot. A value of 0x00 indicates the partition does not have the boot flag set.

It appears at the beginning of a partition record, as the value 0x80. A boot flag is a 1- byte value in a non-extended partition record, within a master boot record.
