Hi, while installing programs on our Windows 7 setup (using WDS) a window is opened where I should choose a network location. How could I prevent this windows and configure a "Work network"? I think this should be done using the deployment workbench, where I have configured a domain join. Regards, Nils.

But what if I just have two unsigned drivers which I like to install and turn on the signing check after the installation? At the moment I install this drivers with individual AutoHotKey/AutoIt scripts. This seems to be a good compromise.

Hi, I'm just setting up an unattended installation with WDS, MDT 2010 and PXEBoot. But I have two unsigned drivers yet and I get the question during setup. So I'm looking for a solution to disable the driver signing check while installing the software. I tried setting the registry key, but this would just work for XP: reg.exe add "HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\Driver Signing" /v BehaviorOnFailedVerify /t reg_dword /d 0x00000000 /f Also I tried the following commands in several combinations (started with admin privileges and reboot after setting) bcdedit.exe /set loadoptions " /DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS" bcdedit.exe /set loadoptions DDISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS bcdedit.exe /set TESTSIGNING ON bcdedit.exe /set NOINTEGRITYCHECKS ON But the signing check is still asking... Any ideas? Best regards, Nils.

Hi, Vista will always format my DVD+RW with UDF when I insert it into the DVD Ram drive, even if there is datas on it. Is it possible to remove this UDF support, because I don't need it and I can't read data from DVD's with the Windows Explorer. It seems not to be an issue with the drive because tools like IsoBuster can extract the data without any problem. Regards, Nils. Edit: The problem is solved, I tried VMWare some time ago and this changed a registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSET\Services\CDRom\Autorun was set to "0". I changed this back to "1", and after a reboot I can access DVD's.

I tried to re-insert the flags during the "Windows Update" is running (the RunOnceEx task), but after the reboot it was deleted. (I created a script which added the registry value and I ran regedit.exe without continuing other programs until regedit was closed, and the flags value was there. But after the reboot it was removed)

Hi, You can unzip the archive on T-39 minutes, or using RunOnceEx. But I don't think it's easy to put the windows setup files into an archive and extract this. But maybe this can be done using Linux. No, we mean to first have the archive on the DVD, and after the archive the setup files. Regards, Nils.

Hi, I don't think that you will feel the benefit. Copying files from DVD is just a small percentage of the installation process. You may speed up if you put all needed files in an zip archive and extract this to your hard disk and run your installations from the hard disk. So you don't have the long seeks of your DVD. And if your are able to put the archive in the inner part of your dvd, you may have your benefit, too. Regards, Nils.

Hi, is it possible to preserve the FLAGS value of the HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx key over some reboots? I install some software and I want to hide the RunOnceEx window (flags=0x000000b0), but while rebooting, the value is deleted and after the reboot the window will be shown. Regards, Nils.

Hi, without guarantee you may try this: net.exe stop wuauserv regsvr32.exe /u /s wuaueng.dll rd /s /q %Systemroot%\SoftwareDistribution del %Systemroot%\windowsupdate.log if exist %systemroot%\system32\msxml.dll regsvr32.exe /s msxml.dll if exist %systemroot%\system32\msxml2.dll regsvr32.exe /s msxml2.dll if exist %systemroot%\system32\msxml3.dll regsvr32.exe /s msxml3.dll if exist %systemroot%\system32\msxml4.dll regsvr32.exe /s msxml4.dll if exist %systemroot%\system32\msxml5.dll regsvr32.exe /s msxml6.dll regsvr32.exe /s wuaueng.dll net.exe start wuauserv wuauclt.exe /resetauthorization /detectnow Regards, Nils.

Hi Fernando, sorry, I'm looking for an integration guide since a few weeks. I haven't seen that this thread is for nLite, but I edited my last post. I corrected the second point. For 1. I have recognized sometimes weird problems if I do not copy the .inf files. The "Intel® SATA AHCI Controller" should just be an reference text but I think it is not really necessary to have this as an identifier. Because of the HardwareID's the reference is iaStor, and this is the ID which is used in [sCSI.load] and [sCSI]. Using multiple texts in the SCSI section should be possible but not really necessary. Best regards, Nils.

Hi, there are just a few things they have to be done, if you want to integrate the drivers manually, without nLite: 1) get the latest Intel Matrix Storage driver and the latest Intel Chipset driver 2) copy the five Intel-files (iaAHCI.cat, iaAHCI.inf, iaStor.cat, iaStor.inf, IaStor.sys) into the i386 directory 3) create a $OEM$\driver\iaStor directory and copy the storage files (iaAHCI.cat, iaAHCI.inf, iaStor.cat, iaStor.inf, IaStor.sys) also into this directory 4) create a $OEM$\driver\chipset directory and extract the chipset driver into this directory 5) create a $OEM$\$$\inf directory and copy the inf files (iaAHCI.inf, iaStor.inf) into this directory 6) edit the winnt.sif file and append or create the OemPnpDriversPath [unattended] OemPnpDriversPath=\driver\chipset;\driver\iaStor 7) edit the txtsetup.sif and append to allmost the end of the files (but be aware there is an end of file marker as last character, don't delete it): [sourceDisksFiles.x86] iaahci.inf = 1,,,,,,,20,0,0 iaahci.cat = 100,,,,,,,,3,3 iastor.inf = 1,,,,,,,20,0,0 iaahci.cat = 100,,,,,,,,3,3 iaStor.sys = 1,,,,,,4_,4,1,,,1,4 [HardwareIdsDatabase] PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2681&CC_0106 = "iaStor" PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27C1&CC_0106 = "iaStor" PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27C5&CC_0106 = "iaStor" PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2821&CC_0106 = "iaStor" PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2829&CC_0106 = "iaStor" PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2922&CC_0106 = "iaStor" PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2929&CC_0106 = "iaStor" PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_3A02&CC_0106 = "iaStor" PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_3A22&CC_0106 = "iaStor" PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2682&CC_0104 = "iaStor" PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27C3&CC_0104 = "iaStor" PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27C6&CC_0104 = "iaStor" PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2822&CC_0104 = "iaStor" PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_282A&CC_0104 = "iaStor" [sCSI.Load] iaStor = iaStor.sys,4 [sCSI] iaStor = "Intel® SATA AHCI RAID Controller" -------------------------------------------- end of txtsetup.sif----------------------- That's all. More can be done but it is not really necessary. You may edit the dosnet.inf but this is only needed if you plan to run a Win PE and install from this. Regards, Nils.

Hi, SP3 contains more fixes than SP2 with all automatic updates. There are several patches you have to download seperatly on a sp2 system. And I installed SP3 on some SP2 systems without a problem. But you can check the Microsoft page for known problems with SP3. Regards, Nils.

Hi, can you install your HP from CD without a problem? Did you load the setup defaults in the BIOS and have you checked you have the latest BIOS? Regards, Nils.

Hi, maybe the problem is RAM, the mainboard / chipset or the harddisk and not your CD. Regards, Nils.

Hi, give it a try. In your Bart PE folder should a folder "drivers" exist. Usually there is a subfolder "storage" (but this is only nice to have). Create for each floppy disk a new subfolder there and copy your floppy disk containing TXTSETUP.OEM with the complete structure into this folders. Then it should work. Regards, Nils.

Hi, why don't you integrate the drivers into Bart PE? Nils.

Hi, even older PC's can make trouble with USB and DOS. We had an imaging scenario with a DOS disk and an USB sticks which worked on many machines pretty well, but the USB sticks died sometimes and now we don't have floppy disk drives. So now we install the PC's over the network and if the onboard network adapter is a problem (not every adapter supports PXE) we install an Intel Pro 1000 Desktop adapter. We used Motto Hairu' USB Driver driver. The config.sys looked like [COMMON] device=himem.sys device=USBASPI.SYS /r /v device=Di1000dd.SYS lastdrive=z files=10 buffers=10 dos=high,umb stacks=9,256 The autoexec.bat @ECHO OFF SMARTDRV.EXE rem find the USB stick IF EXIST J:\USB.USB J: IF EXIST J:\USB.USB GOTO next IF EXIST I:\USB.USB I: IF EXIST I:\USB.USB GOTO next IF EXIST H:\USB.USB H: IF EXIST H:\USB.USB GOTO next IF EXIST G:\USB.USB G: IF EXIST G:\USB.USB GOTO next IF EXIST F:\USB.USB F: IF EXIST F:\USB.USB GOTO next IF EXIST E:\USB.USB E: IF EXIST E:\USB.USB GOTO next IF EXIST D:\USB.USB D: IF EXIST D:\USB.USB GOTO next IF EXIST C:\USB.USB C: :next rem here we go... Regards, Nils. Edit: I forgot: MS-DOS 6.22 can only use the FAT (16) file system and so files (and partitions?) are limited to 2GB. Maybe you have to use an other DOS which allows larger sizes or have a look for a Linux system.

Hi, you can use cabarc.exe -m LZX:21 N driver.cab driver\*.* if your drivers are located in "driver". Regards, Nils.

Hello, I like to integrate the Intel S-ATA driver (iaStor.sys) into the Windows XP SP3 cd (a VL CD, not slipstreamed), so that the drives is also copied by creating a new installation point on our WDS / RIS server. For testing I just create a CD for a direct installation. If I integrate the drivers to the CD (image) I can start an installation from this, but at the moment I get an error during setup (T - 39 min): Fatal error An error has been encountered that prevents Setup from continuing. Setup failed to install the product catalogs, This is a fatal error. The setup log files should contain more information. The log shows the following text: Error: The signature for Windows XP Professional Setup is invalid. The error code is 800b0100. No signature was present in the subject.

Hi, I'm trying to add some drivers to a Windows XP source, this just works a little bit fine. My problem is, I can't use such a CD (or ISO image) for creating an installation source on a RIS (Server 2003 SP2 in mixed mode). The added files (i.e. Intel S-ATA driver) are not copied to the server. After checking some files (layout.inf) I think the unknown paramter 2 is the size of the expanded file in bytes. Best regards, Nils.
