  2. I use WinPe732 with Ghost or AOMEI in Program Files. The programs start with command in [Launchapps] from winpeshl.ini, which file is in Windows\System32. This is for backing up OS partitions. If I want to use the images from different media, like usb stick or SDflash or in a Raid System, I need to add special drivers. This is where WinToolkit helps me out. By the Way, I discovered that Raid/GPT images only could be used with WinPe832 (so not Win7) - In Win732 Ghost32 wil crash if there is a GPT drive over 2TB. I tell this all because you know that I want to understand more about WinToolkit driver integration. - - Sometimes after integration, I see the same drivers in Fil…

    WIM Splitter is the tool where you can split a large install.wim into smaller *.swm so you can fit your installation disk onto a CD. Step 1: Select the WIM Click the first browse button and select the *.wim file you want to split. Step 2: Choose your 'Size' Type in the maximum size you want each separate files to be. Step 3: Select your 'Output' folder Select the folder you want the new separate files to go. Step 4: Press start Press start and wait for it to finish Option: Rebuild Rebuild options literally rebuilds the image so that it becomes smaller which then in turn makes your ISO smaller. This is only needed if you have made modifications to an image.

    Hi, I tried following the guide that is sticky on the first post of this forum, I want to integrate the update and 2 driver pack into the windows 7 sp1 disk. My DVD is extracted and I open the install.wmi into win toolkit, then i click on the all in one integrator, go to the update tab, insert all the update I have downloaded (210+) this take 2-3 min then I click on start in the top left, i get a prompt for the preset, click on save or accept (both didn't make any difference) and after 2 seconds I end up in the option tab and nothing seem to have been done as I read in these forum that for other it can take up to 24 hour to process all the update and driver they included …

    Note these are the latest "refresh" versions of retail/upgrade ISO's as found on Technet/MSDN and these links are completely LEGAL. Also, they have the same MD5 from technet, so they include KB2534111 which is in Solor's pack. Please do not message me to ask if i have an ISO in your language, i don't have any links for them. If i did then i would of added them in here. You can always integrate your language into these ISO's if you can't find your language. Do not under any circumstances ask for serials, cracks or anything that will break the forum rules. ------------------------------------------------------ Windows 7 with Service Pack 1 x64 download Home …

    Hello, I am new here and also new to Win Toolkit, so please be pationed with me And please excuse me for my english. I have downloaded updates with WHDownloader and integrated them (all Updates from General, Hotfix and Security folders; 460 updates) with All-In-One-Creater to the installation image. After this install.wim is almost 3.7 GB in size. Afterward I have installed this windows image to virtual machine and have checked for available updates. There were 117 important and 49 optional updates evailable. To double check i have installed win7 SP1 without any additional updates and checked for updates; the result was the same 117 and 49.

    What is meant by the different colors of the checkmarks and X next to the AIO Updates Integrator? I get mostly Green ones, some Yellow and a few X marks during a run. WTK: 1.5.3.3 OS: Win7x64 I also have an OEM version with SP1 Integrated. Will it harm my WTK run if I reintegrate the same prior updates as SP1 has? Would you please make an UPDATE List file for Win7x64SP1? Thanks, Don.

    This will let you have you Windows installed unattended. It's not the most complete unattended out there but it's better than nothing. Luckily most of this is self-explanatory, note it is recommended to leave 'Architecture' set to 'AnyCPU' which means it should work for both x64 and x86 installs. Main This is where you select the most important parts of the unattended file, like your name, serial key, time zone, screen resolution, updates, Auto-Logon, etc... Users The 'Users' tab lets your add pre-installed usernames on the computer, with passwords, user group, description, again self-explanatory. Editor (Advanced) It is recommended to leave this alone unless you know wh…

  15. Hi, I try to make mine own unattended ISO file and the basics of it seems to work,but when I use the option into win toolkit v1.4.33.7 to add some extra software and let that software install with silent switches, that doesn't work! The software I want to include is adobe reader, adobe flash player, bullzip pdf printer. I do know from those installers what there silent switches are, and I add those silent switch command also into win toolkit, but when everything is installed, I see those programmes aren't installed! I think I do something wrong, but I can't figure out what I do wrong! The windows installation on his self works perfect...but mine extra wanted softwar…

Before begin, type diskmgmt.msc in StartMenu and add a new NTFS partition with at least 20GB where extract the Windows 7 DVD, WinToolKit and RTSevenLite.

Start RTSevenLite and set temporary directory into new partition, then choice source directory and remove features as is in RT7Lite.txt. Don't forget to setup Un-Attended! For last, start WinToolKit, set temporary directory as before, and remove 'Microsofot Windows PE' from boot.wim using WIM manager, include also Autounat…

Hey guys I figured with as much head bashing as I've done in the past few days I may as well try to document this at the very least for myself and hopefully it will be useful to someone else when they start. I know that as you learn new things it can sometimes be difficult to remember exactly how your mind looked at things before you understood them so I want to get started before I'm too far disconnected from where I started. As always I would appreciate advice. Goals: 1 ) Integrate a ) Windows Updates b ) Drivers c ) Software - Adobe Air, Flash, etc. (McRipSF) d ) Programs/Apps/Games …

  22. To my knowledge dism does not save changes to the datastream. However, I began experimenting with DISM. The original directory size of the mount folder is 10396, and the original wim size is 2.422. I removed some stuff, and added some windows updates. The balance was 10254 directory size and the wim size 2.618 I then exported this wim image and the wim size went to 2.575 My question is, the fok(If I may speak frankly)? I can tell you that the updates took 360 mb, to get to the 10254. Now if dism does not save the datastream, then the size of the wim should be 2.422 + compressed 360MB. Now the dism size being 2.575, it means the updates were compressed to 153MB which ma…

    Many of you may already know this but it was new to me so I figured I would post it for others: If you get this error when installing WIN7 to Virtual Box: "Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To fix the problem: 1. Insert your windows install disk and restart the computer. 2. Choose your language settings, and then click NEXT 3. Click repair the computer. If you do not have the install disk contact your system administrator or computer manufacturer for assistance. Status: 0xc0000225 Info: An unexpected error has occurred." The cause of this problem is the APIC (Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller), on which Windows dep…
