vLite can also remove the hardware installation requirements, if I am not mistaken.

1) Install the operating system. 2) Use WinPE 2.0 to capture the system as-is into a single WIM file. 3) Use this method to backup entire operating systems with programs and settings intact.

Perhaps this is a group policy setting that can be turned off. I received that message before, about how doPDF could not print because of the Terminal Services session or something like that.

First time trying vLite since 0.9 beta...it is incredible how much space you save just by removing those unnecessary components; I only removed most languages, drivers, tablet pc support and maybe a few other things and Vista only took up a little over 4 GB on my hard disk, rather than the 13 GB it does by default. Absolutely impressive.

I found that if you manually enter the location of the XP source and don't include the slash at the end that it will fail; if you choose the folder, then the problem should not occur.

Is it possible for someone to post the new logonui.exe?

7-zip also has WIM support if you just need to extract a file from a WIM; I do not believe it has the ability to create them, but getting a file out without mounting isn't bad at all. I have a question conerning ImageX; let's say you have two hard drives, both with a C: drive on them and working XP's on each. On drive 1, I have 2 partitions, C: D:. On drive 2, I have only 1 partition (which was drive C: in the laptop it came from). However, when you boot into WinPE, the C: drive on HDD1 is called the C: drive, which makes sense because this drive is on the primary ide connection. However, the C: drive on HDD2 is called D:, probably because it is the primary partition on the slave IDE connection. Let's say I run the following command: imagex /capture /verify /check d: z:\backup.wim "backup!" This is the question; since the drive I created a WIM from was called the D: drive at the time of capture using ImageX, if I were to put the drive back into its original laptop so the drive letter will be C: again, do you think the image will apply itself properly? Thanks for your time.

What components are required for Motorola Phone Tools?

Perhaps i've made a mistake somewhere; I'll try on a virtual machine and let you know what happens.

If Windows XP does not natively support the Vista bootloader, then how could XP interface with it and tell it to do such and such? Although you can boot with the Vista Bootloader, does MSConfig recognize it?

Yes, that registry key exists and the value points to xpize_logon.exe. Not to cause a ruckus, but am I the only one with this issue? Also, by checking the MD5 value using HashTab, the logonui.exe in C:\windows\system32 is identical to the file in c:\windows\xpize darkside\backup. I do have one question though; would it matter if the logonui was already patched once before? I didn't think it would matter initially, my apologies if it does.

Yes, there is a logonui.exe in that folder.

It doesn't seem like it is, no, even with the defaults; I realize that the logon is an extra, and all the extras are checked, even taskbarxp is installed. Is there a log file i can send you?

I've searched for xpize_logon.exe and cannot find it anywhere. I still see logonui.exe, and it hasn't been modified for today either.

I couldn't find the file XPize_Logon.exe; is logonui.exe patched or is this file created and used to replace the logon? If there is a link to that file only, let me know!

Here is a link to a page that explains how to boot WinPE 2.0 from the USB flash drive: http://www.svrops.com/svrops/articles/winvistape2.htm I have used this myself and it works beautifully. This webpage explains how to reduce the size of your WinPE 2.0 WIM file significantly: http://blogs.msdn.com/winpe/archive/2007/0...mple-steps.aspx This is good for smaller USB drives. Personally, I also add Portable ImgBurn, ImageX, and Notepad2 to the image (do this when the wim file is mounted). How to boot WinPE 2.0 from the hard drive? That would require changing Windows XP's bootloader to Vista's, and I have been unsuccessful thus far. However, you can definitely boot XP using Vista's Bootloader, so it should definitely be possible.

My apologies, I looked in the changelog and some how, that didn't click. Could you add dates for when the releases were released in the changelog?

Is the 4th release the newest release? Does this release contain the updated logonui.exe?

Do you currently know any programming languages or have any experience? If so, then VB .Net will not be too difficult for you, as many of the things other languages require are not necessary.

You didn't mention Sysprep in the manual; that might be important to note, since you also mention the fact that the destination system may be a compatible system, and doesn't have to be the exact same machine. Also, is there a way to install WinPE 2.0 to the hard drive?

Does the current download include the updated bitmaps for logonui.exe?

How about you actually create a WinPE 2.0 wim file, and just add one more wim file to the image you are going to create in the root of your winpe folder (i believe yours was c:\winxp) and then before creating the image, edit startnet.cmd (you will have to mount the boot.wim) file and call a diskpart script to format the first partition. Then, you can apply the image to the c: drive using imagex /apply. That should work. You can edit startnet.cmd to actually call the diskpart script and apply the image all automatically. This website, http://www.svrops.com/svrops/articles/winvistape2.htm, helps getting you started, but you'll need more information on diskpart to tweak its settings.

can you really make a bootable DVD from a Windows XP WIM file? Did you take a snapshot of the system and sysprepped it? If so, would the bootable DVD automatically apply that image using imageX? If that can be done, that would be cool, although it probably could if you made a WinPE 2.0 DVD and included the WIM file in the ISO.
