introduced into the compilation so you do not need to look for it later.
5.7.4.4 Internet protocol
This section allows you to configure basic network information and set up predefined connections after running ESET
SysRescue.
Select Automatic private IP address to obtain the IP address automatically from DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol) server.
Alternatively, this network connection can use a manually specified IP address (also known as a static IP address).
Select Custom to configure the appropriate IP settings. If you select this option, you must specify an IP address and,
for LAN and high-speed Internet connections, a Subnet mask. In Preferred DNS server and Alternate DNS server,
type the primary and secondary DNS server addresses.
5.7.4.5 Bootable USB device
If you have selected a USB device as your target medium, you can select one of the available USB devices on the
Bootable USB device tab (in case there are more USB devices).
Select the appropriate target Device to which ESET SysRescue will be installed.
Warning: The selected USB device will be formatted during the creation of ESET SysRescue. All data on the device will be
deleted.
If you select Quick format, formatting removes all the files from the partition, but does not scan the disk for bad
sectors. Use this option if your USB device has been formatted previously and you are sure that it is not damaged.
5.7.4.6 Burn
If you have selected CD/DVD as your target medium, you can specify additional burning parameters in the Burn tab.
Delete ISO file – Select to delete the temporary ISO file after the ESET SysRescue CD is created.
Deletion enabled – Enables you to select fast erasing and complete erasing.
Burning device – Select the drive to be used for burning.
Warning: This is the default option. If a rewritable CD/DVD is used, all the data on the CD/DVD will be erased.
The Medium section contains information about the medium in your CD/DVD device.
Burning speed – Select the desired speed from the drop-down menu. The capabilities of your burning device and the
type of CD/DVD used should be considered when selecting the burning speed.
5.7.5 Working with ESET SysRescue
For the rescue CD/DVD/USB to work effectively, you must start your computer from the ESET SysRescue boot media.
Boot priority can be modified in the BIOS. Alternatively, you can use the boot menu during computer startup – usually
using one of the F9 - F12 keys depending on the version of your motherboard/BIOS.
After booting up from the boot media, ESET Security solution will start. Since ESET SysRescue is used only in specific
situations, some protection modules and program features present in the standard version of ESET Security solution
are not needed; their list is narrowed down to Computer scan, Update, and some sections in Setup. The ability to
update the virus signature database is the most important feature of ESET SysRescue, we recommend that you update
the program prior starting a Computer scan.
