  1. I have tried WinToolkit141-15_Test15.7z and everything went just well for me.

     

    I'll try this night with x64 source and i'll report it.

     

    Hi,

    i finished the test and everything went just ok.

     

    source: win7 sp1 x64 enu

    *.msu: 108, all of them GDR, already downloaded

    *.wim: integration of *.msu's into hb, hp, prof and ultimate

    iso creation.

     

    RAMDRIVE(/DISK): 2840MB from 4096 installed on laptop,

    containing the *.msu's folder, WinToolkit s\w folder, WinToolkit_Mount folder, WinToolkit_Temp folder, WinToolkit_Files folder

    source on laptop's hdd.

     

    Happy integration!

  2. Glad it's all fixed :) Any other issues with the test version?

    No idea to be honest, I never check the Event Viewer (NEVER) as it's mostly pointless.

     

     

    First off, I noticed that not even Microsoft has a clue. Just codswallop in TechNet and elsewhere...

    I'm also encountering this warning (VM only, not on a "real" system). I tried the following:

     

    Launching the service Microsoft .NET Framework NGEN v2.0.50277_X86 (state: manual, not started), then rebooting Windows 7.

    It'll be inactive again and no new warning should have been generated.

    I have already done this one, you are right!

     

    Thank you both, Legolash2o and foobuzz !

     

    I am a little late because i had a test with rt_7_lite_win7_ _ _sp1 and even with this one i get the same warnings.

     

    So, it is NOT related to the s\w Win Toolkit, that's a good one!!!!!!!!!!!

    Now i am relaxed....

     

    And asap i'll give a try with a real h\w.

     

    Have a nice day!

  4. Hi,

     

    After 10 days of making tests(about 40), i CANNOT solve it by myself and here i am to ask for your help! Thank you!

     

    This error/ .net runtime optimization service event id 1130, it shows up after i finish to install the windows 7 sp1 integrated with the post sp1 updates. Of course, i install the o.s. into a virtual machine, vmware player.

     

    Here is a screen and an export of the event from the event viewer, evtx file.

     

    net runtime optimization service eventid 1130.7z

     

    net_runtime_optimization_service_eventid

     

    This is what i have done till now:

    - using all versions of Win Toolkit v1.4.1.14 to the last betas

    - using wim ultimate x86/x64, prof x86/x64, home

    - integrate of the msu's, about 105 for these days

    - integrate without the msu's related to .Net Framework

    - integrate without the msu's related to windows media center(because i supposed can be a solution), most of them saying "Version or flavor did not match with repository: Microsoft.MediaCenter" bla.bla.bla

    - and many more( forum search, google search, etc, etc...)

     

    Please just try to help me and i'll be very grateful! Thanks for your time and any idea that you can offer to me!

  5. Interesting, but with only one (big) disadvantage of this program: the are no update-list in other languages, only english.

     

    Thiersee

    I suppose you can find a list with the language you are looking for, or you can build it by yourself. For the first time, maybe, it will be time consuming...but...

    Yes, i use only ENU MS products.

    For those odd cases i do a manual updating with manual/automatic update.

     

    For now, i don't know if i am right or wrong, but in Win Toolkit all my updates(.msu kind) are shown "LANGUAGE: ALL", and the name of files are like "Windows6.1-KB1234567-x86.msu".... I don't see any of ENU, how it was for the xp o.s.

    l.e.:

    The md5 for  Windows6.1-KB2479943-x86.msu english or changing the language before downloading to german,zum beispiel, it is the same.

    So, you can go for english wud list, download all you need, control the md5 with a software like Hashmyfiles

    an make a test.

     

    Let my know if i can help you more...

    l.e. updating info

  6. Hi,

     

    @cmos,

     

    That is very impressive improvements for a seemingly simple change...

    Yes, it is, and i have re-done the testings to see if it is true, and it is.

     

     ...Overall system specs...

    It's a pc with Sempron 2800+ (1.6GHz), HDD1 sata1 , HDD2 sata2, RAM 2GB.

     

     ...the sizes of RAM disks that you have found appropriate...

    In my case, just because of the RAM=2GB, i decided that 768MB is enough and it was.

     

    ...the tools and methods you used to "properly" align your HDD...

     

    HDD1 working o.s.(winxp).
    Always i use GParted to get my partition before to install any kind of operating system.
    Just use it and you'll never be disappointed.(how to use it, you can find a proper tutorial on the web).
    And GParted uses align to sectors, first sector 2048.


    If you make the partition during the install of win xp, you'll get aling to cylinder first sector=63, see the foto1.

    untitled1.jpg
    Using gParted, see the foto2, you get align to sectors first sector=2048.

    untitled2.jpg
    (some fotos for gParted: foto3, 4 and 5).

    untitled3.jpguntitled4.jpguntitled5.jpg


    Install the win XP and configure it to get the most of it, i'am not the right person to guide you over this process.
    (anyway get rid of useless services and process, turn off pagefile, etc. DURING the time of using Win Toolkit).


    HDD2 formatted NTFS "align to cylinder" first sector=63
    Using the win xp wizard for making the partition, you get a partition align to cylinder first sector=63 see foto6 and 7.

    untitled6.jpguntitled7.jpg


    HDD2 formatted NTFS "align to sectors" first sector=2048
    Using Bootice you can choose align to sectors first sector=2048.
    See foto8 and 9.

    untitled8.jpguntitled9.jpg

    I don't remember the home page of Bootice, but you can downloaded this Win Setup_1_0_beta8.7z

    and find it inside the folder "win setup\files\tools\"

     

    ...the list of what exactly you are having Win Toolkit to do, how many McRip or KUC updates and how many addons etc (maybe even the log)...

    The logs are deleted now, if i have time i'll do the testings again and i'll post the logs, fotos and settings for Win Toolkit.
    Win Toolkit has to integrate only the post sp1 updates, .msu kind not converted to .cab,i don't use at all any kind of McRip and KUC, i have my own downloaded updates using WUD and manual downloading from the MS servers.
    They are about 110 for these days.
    Addons=0, etc=0.

     

    Imortant: Before you start the Win Toolkit better if you defragg the HDD's. Also, each time i make once again the test i prefer to re-formatt the partition of the HDD2.

     

    If i missed something, just let me know...

     

    Anyway, now with the new version of Win Toolkit(beta, sorry i don't know if it is ok to use it, i didn't asked for permission),

    i use an other technique just for the ramdisks, i think it's better.

    Time having, i'll will post it.

     

    Regards, cmos.

     

    l.e.spelling, sorry for my @$&_english :-(

  7. Hello,

    This is my first post, so at the beginning i must say THANK you Legolash2o for your great work, and all of you for useful information posted in the forum!!!

     

    These last days i had my first approach with WinToolkit and during the testings i have seen that:

    if the HDD where is the Win Toolkit Mount Folder located(drive:\WinToolkit_Temp\Mount) is formated NTFS with "align to sectors" the working speed is about 33% faster.

    My first test was:

    HDD1 working o.s.(winxp).

    HDD2 formatted NTFS "align to cylinder" first sector=63, containing the Win Toolkit Mount Folder (x:\WinToolkit_Temp\Mount), the dvd folder, the folder with post sp1 updates and the folder with the WinToolkit141-14.exe.

    HDD3 a ramdisk NTFS for the Win Toolkit Temp Folder.

    time to finish integrating the updates,mounting/saving to 1 wim was 90min (sorry my pc is quite old).

     

    Second test, i have changed only the kind of alignement for the HDD2.

    HDD1 working o.s.(winxp).

    HDD2 formatted NTFS "align to sectors" first sector=2048, containing like above.

    HDD3 a ramdisk NTFS for the Win Toolkit Temp Folder.

    time to finish the same amount of post sp1 updates in the same wim was 60min.

     

    Conclusion: if you want to speed up the process it is better to check out how your HDD is formatted.

     

    I hope that kind of information could be useful for all of you, and maybe for Legolash2o for the future developing of the application.

     

    Best regards,cmos!

     

    ps: sorry for my english, it's a bit "rusty".

    if you need some extra infos just let me know!
