LOL, you know what they say about thinking. (DON'T) Re-read / follow the instructions a little closer, they look correct to me. Do not add any extra steps and you should be fine. Boot.wim is already present in your RTM DVD. DVD\Sources\Boot.wim Alternatively you can extract your entire DVD to your HDD, and simply copy/replace your captured install.wim with the original in the sources folder. Or use whatever ISO creation software you prefer, many can do the trick. I only mention vLite because most readers already have a copy.EDIT: When talking about GUI based ISO editors, there are rumors that only PowerISO can properly edit the Windows.ISO format. Other software's mess up ISO when editing. Can anyone confirm ?

Maybe it is simple typo style error. Try moving your generalize pass above the CPI line like this. If that doesn't fix it, next attempt will be to change it to the specialize pass. I hope you are using a VM to test your ISO's and not burning DVD's.

Sounds like a lot of work for a simple hosts file, why not just use DISM to mount your WIM and copy your already edited hosts file over the original located inside your WIM file. Then you do not have to write any scripts, since you integrated it into the WIM. It will be a part of every install you make. Again for the drivers use DISM and run the add-packages command. This integrates them directly into your WIM. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library...28WS.10%29.aspx If you don't want to use DISM manually, I think someone wrote a simple Powershell GUI for it. Check for link in my sig. Not sure about Adobe and Bit Defender.. I'm sure someone else has the syntax for silent install.

Be sure they go in the correct settings pass (generalize or specialize pass) and inside the correct XML block. For the initial tasks. Microsoft-Windows-OutOfBoxExperience For the Server Manager. Microsoft-Windows-ServerManager-SvrMgrNc

Use an autounattend.xml with this setting <DoNotOpenInitialConfigurationTasksAtLogon>True</DoNotOpenInitialConfigurationTasksAtLogon> Before you ask, here is the same thing for Server Manager <DoNotOpenServerManagerAtLogon>True</DoNotOpenServerManagerAtLogon> You should be able to find many examples of autounattend.xml if you search this forum. Then you will have to edit one to make only the settings you prefer. Or you can install the WAIK, and use the WSIM (Windows System Image Manager) and create your XML from scratch.I copied the quotes from Unattend.chm in the WAIK.

That's your problem, no internet time sync + your CPU clock is likely borked, this can happen, quartz crystals are not permanent time devices, they can become inaccurate if damaged or exposed to heat for prolonged periods (i.e. normal wear and tear). The quick fix is to re-enable your machine to synchronize with a time server or to get a new motherboard. Though I am not sure I believe the statement that your clock runs fine on Linux but not windows. Maybe RedHat has a faster interval for syncing with an Internet Time Server. If you follow the below method you should be able to adjust your sync interval in Windows clients and achieve the desired result (i.e. have the correct time displayed) If you set it to 900 seconds, that means it will update every 15 minutes. If your machine clock gets messy after only 15 minutes, something is definitely wrong, maybe time for a new mobo. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314054

Your both wrong, it is called Jinje Mode, after me. JinjeMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C} Can we find something more useless to argue about, it can be changed to anything.{GUID}.

We are talking about supporting multiple random small businesses ? Correct ?? I don't know how much your clients are spending but if it's enough, maybe you could provide each client a machine that is pre-configured with something like winpcap + snort and have them power-it up. When they need your assistance, they give you a call and then you can remote into that machine and do your business. It could be a physical machine or a virtual machine (VMware ACE comes to mind), just keep it simple, let them know all they need to do is power it up and dial your number. Maybe tell them it is cheaper than an on-site call and you will not get any complaints.

You have a space in your file path, rename your folder or move Install.WIM to the root of your drive. A quick search would have turned up this.

kinda like that animation, wonder if it would be possible to change the default 4 color thing to this smooth FirstUXRes on every boot.

Correct me if I am wrong but the Starter limitation is Hardware-Assisted VT which really only affects Microsoft Virtual PC. You can still use any third party Virtual Machine software that supports software based emulation. VMware, Virtual Box, QEMU probably will all work just fine. Just a cleverness from the PR dept, if they can confuse people into thinking VMware will not run on it, they earned their donut for the day.

Did you take the Orange Sunshine about 15 years ago ??? Probably just a flash back. In any case, you are making some connections that are only imagined. But no worries, I have a sure-fire way to completely remove all remnants of Windows 7 on your HDD. 1) Remove all HDD from machine except for the one you want wiped. 2) Download DBAN (Darik's Boot and Nuke), burn to DVD, and boot from it. 3) Upon boot you will be prompted to enter a choice. Either read the included help files via F2, F3, F4 keys, or just type autonuke. (I use autonuke) 4) Let it run for as many hours as it needs, autonuke is a DoD 3 pass over-write (filling and wiping the entire HDD 3 times), so it could be awhile. When it is done, the HDD will be as clean as it can be.

That's my fault, I meant to say I wanted to use the Task Scheduler. Was looking for the correct Event Log + Event ID that could trigger the event.

Looking for a freeware application to help with some DVD data restores I need to do. Short version, HDD Failure, burning plastic smell. This is just basic file copy, so please nobody suggest "DVD Shrink", we're talking about data DVD solutions and not video DVD What I am looking for is a program that scans my DVD drive and upon insert, should copy the entire contents (each DVD has a uniquely named folder) into a specified location without interaction. After words, it should eject so I all I need to do is change out DVD's while I watch a movie. Ideally it shouldn't interfere with shell focus (i.e. not stealing it away full screen video), but this is not a deal breaker. Currently the plan is to use a nircmd batch script, but that requires I pause the movie for a second and double click a batch file. Just figured someone might know an easier way. EDIT: On second thought, can anyone tell me how to capture the Insert DVD event (and possibly how to turn on event-logging for it) and maybe I can just use Task Scheduler to run the script for me. That way I can disable the task afterwards to revert to normal DVD behavior.

So you are saying it is not a Y2010 problem ???

Taking it back. Even with Windows 7 + TRIM this SSD still experienced major slow downs in sequential writes. While fast on the random read side, copying a 4GB ISO file now locks up the machine (sometimes causing unresponsive OS) for about 5 minutes. No plans to determine why or how to fix. Like I said, if it doesn't work correctly out-the-box I'd rather have a 1.5TB HDD. OCZ forums suggest I spend another $50 for some 3rd Party SSD Defrag software and it would be the miracle cure. No thanks OCZ, you can give me my money back. It took Darik's BAN 4 hours to perform a 3-pass on a 30GB drive if that tells anyone how slow it was at the end. Luckily it only took 8-9 days for this 30GB to slow down. A 250GB might have stayed fast 30-60 days or more, just long enough to outlast the return policy.

and of course you already decided not to do it the easy way and just use a group policy to redirect only the needed folders (probably only need to move the My Docs and Desktop), or could you ?? http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc732275.aspx

Are you also replacing the copies inside the winRE.wim inside the install.wim (i.e. the recovery environment) Here is the path from 7zip (each # is the image #) so winRE.wim Image #1 install.wim\4\Windows\System32\Recovery\winRE.wim\1\sources\

Some day, and that day may never come, I'll call upon you to do a google search for me.

Check MARs website. You probably want the Community Program, requirements seem to be 20 pc's per year minimum. Additional Info Companies who provide this service.

Is that the name of the app you are trying to ThinApp? or is that a clever-ism for environmentally friendly software ??? Shouldn't have to. For beginners, it can usually do everything for you. Have no idea where you are in the installation. Is this a ThinApp compilation error, a ThinApp capture error, or an error when trying to install your application (non-ThinApp related). If you can hit Ctrl+PrintScreen and snag a screen shot, that would be ideal.

If the drug has any merit, it will be stolen by a major pharmaceutical company. Until then,
