Hi, Does anyone know why MDT 2012 Windowhide.exe doesn't show the BGInfo wallpaper during setup phase. We are using SCCM 2012 SP1 and MDT 2012 script parts. The commands (WindowHide.exe firstuxwnd) seems to execute fine but still the default black screen with the windowslogo is shown. It works fine in the PE phase of the setup. Regards B

I forgot to tell you that my bootimage is X64 so Putty won´t work. Any other ideas?

Hi, does anyone know how to get Telnet working in WinPE 3.0? Which files that are needed and so on... Regards B

Thank you! Works perfect! Best Regards B

Hi, Do you know if the wpchange is available in X64 version? Regards

Hi, Does anyone know how the refresh the desktop wallpaper in WINPE x64 after winpe have started? I would like to change desktop wallpaper when my script comes to certain steps. I have found several exe files that makes it possible in winpe X86 but not in X64 since syswow subsystem is not available. RUNDLL32.EXE user32.dll,UpdatePerUserSystemParameters does not work either. Anyone with programming skills can easily do this, code is found on MS website. Remember that it must be X64... Plz help! Regards B

I understand what you mean, but when you create the bootimage in SCCM you can´t edit winpeshl.ini bacause it will be overwritten by SCCM and you can´t use startnet.cmd because it is not used. I have tried to add a modified winpeshl.ini via extra files to Winpe but SCCM still overwrite the file. I think it will behave the same way if you create the bootimage "outside" SCCM and import it. Regards B

Hi, Yes, I have tried the same thing too and it seems to work. The only problem with this that winpeshl.ini will be overwritten if you do "update dp:s" so you have to keep this in mind everytime you should create a new iso. Regards

Hi, I´m having problems to use a dll in my winpe bootimage. I´m adding the dll to winpe by using the extra directory option in SCCM. I´m registering the dll with a script in TSconfig.ini and this script then starts another vbs that should use the dll. But nothing happens at all when the script is started. No error message, no nothing... The script works and the dll too if I do the same thing with PE outside SCCM. It also works great on my XP client. Any ideas? Regards B

Hi, Not yet. I´m still trying to get HP to look at the case. Please let me know if you run into a soloution. Regards

Hi, In my case it is not an option. We don´t have DHCP on all subnets so I really need to get this working. I will contact HP and see if they can assist. Regards

Hi, I run into problems 9 of 10 times when booting a HP server via ILO (iso boot). The iso is a Windows PE image created using sccm 2007 SP2. I get the message: Unable to read task sequence configuration disk. When looking into smsts.log it seems like it won´t search the virtual CD for the files needed and just crasches. When pressing F8 and going into the command prompt there is no problems to access the virtual CD drive. It also works if I manually start %SYSTEMDRIVE%\sms\bin\x64\TsBootShell.exe It seems like it is some kind of timing issue. Maybe it loads the virtual CD driver to late/slow. Any ideas?

Hi, I have tried now and it did´nt work. I added the variable (Servernamevariable) to the propertiesline. Is this line correct? Should I use %variable% syntax? Program = http://%Servernamevariable%/Getprograms.asmx

Hi all, I have a vbscript that I execute in my task sequence to set some variables during OSD. One of these variables needs to be used in customsettings.ini to connect to a server to retrieve a list of applications to install during my OSD Task sequence. The vbscript uses oTSEnv = CreateObject("Microsoft.SMS.TSEnvironment") to set the variables. I can see that the variable I need is set correctly when I output all the variables during OSD. My customsettings.ini looks like this: [settings] Priority=Default, getprograms Properties=MyCustomProperty [Default] OSInstall=Y [getprograms] Program = http://%Servernamevariable%/Getprograms.asmx How do I get this working? The %Servernamevariable% is of course the variable I set (explained above). It is for example testserver.mydomain.int. Do I have to use the propertiesline or? Maybe I can only use %variable% type with built in variable names and not my own?

Hi, does anyone know if it is possible to change to logon screen when connecting via RDP? I have managed to do it when you log on at the console. I have made these settings: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\LogonUI\Background] "OEMBackground"=dword:00000001 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System] "UseOEMBackground"=dword:00000001 And added backgroundDefault.jpg to c:\Windows\System32\oobe\info\backgrounds folder. But is it possible to make it for RDP sessions?

Hi, has anyone been able to get WINLPCFG to work in Winpe 3.0? I have downloaded the executable and dll from Emulex website (http://www.emulex.com/downloads/emulex/cnas-and-hbas/utilities/offline-utilities/winpe-offline-utility.html) When I try to start the utility it won´t start with error message No driver installed. Error 1! I have added latest storport drivers to my Winpe image. Any ideas? Regards

Hi, has anyone been able to add multipath support to winpe 2.0? All SAN disks appears twice in diskpart and later on the unattended installation will fail because of this issue. I would like to have for example HDLM or Microsoft MPIO working in Winpe 2.0 Regards

Hi, does anyone know how to enable view file extensions in Vista for all users profile? Is there a registry key that you can modify for the default user? Or can you do in unattend.xml during installation?

Hi, Does anyone know how to set timezones via script? In 2003 I used the command timedate.cpl but in server 2008 it just starts the GUI. Anyone? Regards

Thanks Jazkal for the quick response. I needed my 32 bit dll for creating a listbox for my script to log to. But I can change the script to just echo out instead.

Hi, I need to register a 32 bit dll with regsvr32 when booting a 64 bit Winpe 2.0 Iso. How do I get the files that needs to be in the sysWOW folder on the bootcd? And which files are required? Anyone who knows? Regards B

Hi, I have a general question. If there is built in drivers for a raid controller in Windows and I am having newer version of the same driver in $OEM$, txtsetup.oem and unattend.txt... Which one is used? Is it always the built in driver? Do I have to use oempnpdrivrerpath to update the drivers or edit txtsetup.sif?

Hi, I have big problems with unattended Server 2003 installation when using Emulex storport drivers in the txtsetup file. The problem occurs when installing a HP DL380G5 with local harddrives! The controller is a P400. I get a bluescreen during installation with 0*0000007B message. Anyone who knows what to do?

Hi, I´m having problems to to start network (wrong drivers) in PE 2.0 for this server. I have tested the Broadcom drivers for RIS. The devcon output is: PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_164C&SUBSYS_7038103C&REV_11\5&25DDF472&0&000080: HP NC373i Virt The driver works for DL380 G5 which I assume uses the same driver. Anyone?

Where do I find the download link?
