Your product: Rescue CD (7.5 version)

A.  If you are installing AVG for the first time please do the following:

The AVG Rescue CD is distributed in two different variations:

  1. Standalone AVG Rescue CD
    This CD can be obtained from AVG’s online shop, your local AVG distributor or any other way.
  2. Downloadable version of AVG Rescue CD (80-90MB)
    This version can be downloaded as a RAR archive and burned to CD by yourself. In such a case, please visit Rescue CD download address to download the current version and the AVG Rescue CD Creator utility (MakeCD.exe).

B. Please note the following steps for activating your AVG Rescue CD License. You have two options how to proceed:

  1. Create a brand new AVG Rescue CD using the downloaded RAR archive, AVG Rescue CD Creator utility (MakeCD.exe) and your unique License File (avgelc.dat). Run the AVG Rescue CD Creator Utility and follow these simple steps:
    • select the location of the downloaded RAR archive
    • select the location of the License File
    • select the output folder, where the ISO image will be created
    • choose the correct RAM memory specification of the target computer (less than 256MB, more or equal to 256MB)
    Once all options are set, click the „Create ISO“ button. The ISO file with AVG Rescue CD should be created in a short time. Finally, burn a new AVG Rescue CD from the created ISO image file using your favorite CD burning software.
    Note: If you only have the standalone AVG Rescue CD, you can still create a personalized  version. On each AVG Rescue CD there are also distributed the RAR archive and AVG Rescue CD creator utility (located in the subdirectory \PROGRAMS\MAKECD\MakeCD.exe), so you can easily proceed to create an additional AVG Rescue CD.
  2. If you already have the AVG Rescue CD (standalone CD), and you do not want to create a new one, put the avgelc.dat file onto some (removable) device such as a floppy disk, USB flash disk, hard drive etc., restart the computer you are going to repair and boot from the AVG Rescue CD. Once the AVG Rescue CD has started, a notification dialog will be displayed asking for the path to the avgelc.dat license file.
    Note: Make sure, that the drive you put the avgelc.dat file on, will be accessible from the computer on which you are booting with the AVG Rescue CD.
