Supports up to 256 operating systems on a
single hard drive.
Allows
a single computer to be used by more than one person. Each person can
have their own operating system, which will not be corrupted by another person.
Now instead of the whole PC needing to be reinstalled when someone installed one
game too many and crashed it, just the operating system used for games needs to
be reinstalled. This can save hundreds of hours of work or valuable data.
Login security enforces privacy because each
person's favorites and internet history are completely separated.
Allows flexibility to run more applications.
One program might run under Windows 98; another under Windows 2000.
With PBM, you can choose as many operating systems as you need. Now
instead of having to have multiple computers, one computer with multiple
operating systems can do it all!
Allows for software and system testing.
Does this program work under Windows ME? How does my webpage look on a
Linux machine? Would Windows XP run slower or faster for my system?
It would take an entire lab of computers to accomplish all the testing one PC
with PBM and multiple operating systems can do. PBM is much superior than
operating system emulators because the actual operating system is running.
Designed to be the best without the faults and limitations of other boot managers.
Changes to partitions can be made within PBM or externally due to its two way
partition maintenance. Disk utilities such as Partition Magic, Drive
Image, and Ghost and 100% compatible. PBM is 100% compatible with all
operating systems and file systems that conforms to the traditional partition table.
PBM is available for a free 30 day trial,

PBM
offers an intelligent setup program that can install, backup, restore,
initialize, uninstall, and handle registration tasks.
If you are installing PBM on a system that already
has an operating system installed, PBM can move your partitions to prepare for
PBM installation if your drive has at least 1 cylinder of free space available.
If uninstalling, PBM allows the user to retain up
to 4 partitions (the maximum that will fit in the traditional partition table). |

Partitions
Menu allows management of the installed operating systems.
New partitions can be created via 2 methods,
partitions can be modified, boot sectors can be analyzed or updated,
partitions can be deleted, and partitions can be securely erased.
A graph bar displays the location and size of the
partitions as you select them along with the current free space on the
drive.
The order the partitions appear in the main menu
can be customized, unless sorted is preferred.
|
You
can easily create a duplicate of an operating system by using the built-in
copy feature.
This is quite a useful tool when testing something
in an operating system, but not desiring to keep the tested operating
system. When the testing is finished, just delete the copied operating
system. |
Partition creation is very precise.
PBM prompts for how large the new partition will be and where exactly on the drive it
should be placed. |

can be utilized when a secure environment is required.

own security profile and startup settings.
If security is not necessary, PBM can be
set to automatically login as the last user to eliminate the login dialog. |
Users
will only be able to access the operating systems they have been granted
access to.Once they are logged in,
only the checked operating systems will appear in their boot menu. |

you can press at the main menu to boot the operating system instantly), boot
type, partition order, partition protection options, unprotected warning option,
CHS type, and any other partitions you want to be visible while in this
particular operating system can be specified.
PBM was designed for the highest level of
operating system compatibility possible when using a boot manager, all of these
options can create any possible environment necessary for proper booting of an
operating system. |
