Me personally I never seemed to get PreferredPlan to work to set High performance as the default power plan no matter where I add it, I have to use this instead with FirstLogonCommands
<FirstLogonCommands>                <SynchronousCommand wcm:action="add">                    <CommandLine>powercfg -setactive 8c5e7fda-e8bf-4a96-9a85-a6e23a8c635c</CommandLine>                    <Description>Sets 'High performance' Power Plan</Description>                    <Order>1</Order>                    <RequiresUserInput>false</RequiresUserInput>                </SynchronousCommand>
might have to try that,
I leave it in there so I can keep messing with it

Pick one.

I'm not 100% sure, but i think the only reliable way to do what you want is to use bcedit in conjunction with a firstlogon.cmd.

As an example, i do something similar with autoit to rename the bcd title in case of a dual boot. Its friday and this is my last web page i visit before going out, so i don't have the time to convert to cmd.

I'll use this as an example. Just double the reference and have one for each architecture. Notice the pattern.

I believe this will help you. Just have your drivers (or driverpacks) extracted in as many subfolders as you want and it will find it during install. Have them in "dvdroot"\sources\$OEM$\$$\PnPdrvrs\w7x64 or whatever you want to name the final directory. A caviat is that for an all in one install it will copy both architectures wasting a little time.

This somewhat goes back to my other post about product keys but that post is getting a bit bloated with different suggestions and ideas so I wanted to just simply ask the question here that may be a solution to my problem.
Could it be possible to have multiple autounattend.xml files for the different versions of windows 7 (ie: home premium, pro, ultimate). Could there be a master autounattend.xml file that says (if you choose to install home premium, use homepremium.xml, if you choose pro then use pro.xml, etc...)
What needs to be considered is that this install would be a dvd bootable so renaming files on the fly would not be an option as someone already suggested. The idea is to have one disc to do it all and have generic keys plugged in to each different xml so the install is fully unattended without having to type a key until the product becomes activated (and at that point I would use the customers key).
I'm not sure if this is a possibility at all or not but it would solve my problem with product keys and I'm sure would be usefull in other ways to alot of people making All-in-one discs with unattended features.

yes.

I use desktop icons on my PE to direct to start.exe and an unattended, and i put one in the panther directory in the wim to have it as a default. You will need a x86\x64 universal unattend file if you have both architectures.

I want to edit the Windows 7 Ultimate and after construction RT Seven Lite with 32-bit and 64-bit version on a DVD I have.Whether it is possible that two files Unattended.xml (32-bit and 64 bit) have to choose when to install the Windows 32-bit or 64 bit Windows will install?

Hers a simple one i use. They should all be x86\x64 IMO. This one you have to enter your account name. Just add to it. If you use DISM to enter the key it wont ask for a key and the unattended file will work on all editions.
