Removing images: During the autounattend.xml faze when I'm choosing the image if I check remove other images when I click OK I get an error 53 file not found. When I restart se7en_UA and go back to autounattend.xml I get this screen I checked in the source folder and install.wim and all the .clg files except for the one for the image I selected have been deleted.

Here's what I have installed by setupcomplete.cmd, minus what you already have flash.exe /S msxml4-KB954430-enu.exe /quiet Silverlight.exe /q windows-kb890830-x64-v3.1.exe /Q /N

This tweak only effects the 6 icons listed. I found the following searching on google Rebuild icon cache

Ok now I understand

@maxXPsoft I like the new version 6.0.4 I see it even added silent switches to 2 of the hotfixes installed by setupcomplete.cmd

Thanks, this will be usefull. I wanted to choose what icons are on the desktop. To help I came up with this [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons\NewStartPanel] ;ieexplorer? Had no effect on my system "{871C5380-42A0-1069-A2EA-08002B30309D}"=dword:00000001 ;users documents "{59031a47-3f72-44a7-89c5-5595fe6b30ee}"=dword:00000001 ;My Computer "{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}"=dword:00000001 ;Network "{F02C1A0D-BE21-4350-88B0-7367FC96EF3C}"=dword:00000001 ;ControlPanel "{5399E694-6CE5-4D6C-8FCE-1D8870FDCBA0}"=dword:00000001 ;REcyclebin "{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}"=dword:00000001

I think you want to point to that in the unattended part there is no section for creating users. Yes you can not create users in the unattended part, you can skip user creation to make the auto log on feature work. Maybe later I could implement a part for creating users. Regards This is what I mean Also forgot to mention I'm working with ultimate

When creating the unattened file I can't enter a user name and password unless I check skip user enter the information then uncheck skip user. this is with version 02.0a I'm working on a win7 64 bit image on an install of the same.

Maybe more info would be helpful When I added an app the first time I would browse to the APPS folder in UAdvd to the program I wanted to install. If I rolled back and went to change the apps I got the error. Browseing to a APPS folder on mt second HD D: fixed the problem. Rolling back to after dvd copy would probable fix the problem I'm having now. My cleanup.cmd file got hosed after rolling back to add more apps. It now only has one line to remove a link on the desktop for adobe reader. All the other parts have ben removed.

Installing applications: Never mind I figured it out What am I doing wrong? Working with a win7 64bit ultimate image on an install of the same. I've made an installation DVD with 9 apps that are installed from the DVD. It installs on a vmware virtual machine OK. When I go back to Se7en_UA and click on roll back here and then Add Applications. When I click the check box of one of the apps I've already setup I get this popup If I go to the apps folder, the sub folder for that app is gone. I click on all the apps and the sub folders are deleted. If I copy a backup of the APPS folder back to UaDVD/APPS I'm able to setup the applications again. Another question If Iwant to install my apps from a second HD do I just need to put the APPS folder on that drive and then setup the apps the sameway I've been doing it?

#3 Found it. When Cleanup.cmd exists but is empty. Quick fix open it and add just REM I usually add about 20-30 apps which adds a lot of stuff in there for me. That worked

#1 edited my xml to add the commands and tested in vmware and they worked ok #2 can't wait for the fix #3 No they're not rar'd More info: it happens during the install applications part after I click ok on the add timeout box and the edit window appears. the error only happens if I click on the "cleanup" box.

I choose to run cmds in firstlogoncmds in oobe system pass. When I get to the part where I edit the autounattend.xml file there are no entries in that part to run any cmd files. three cmd files are created in $oems$\$1\install. AuditUser.cmd Cleanup.cmd and Favs.cmd Also I don't know is its related ot not when I choose to run the cmds in the audituser pass. During install when sysprep starts I choose auditsystem and left generalize unchecked when I press ok it comeback with a critical error. Also When I check the setupcomplete checkbox and the edit windows shows is I clcik on the cleanup.cmd box I get an error input past end of file and se&en exits after clicking ok

in standard user when you right ckick on the taskbar and choose properties is use small icons checked. When I check that on my system it makes the taskbar shrink in size and only the timne is displayed. Another thing you could try is unlock the taskbar and drag it up to increase its size.

Adding MSCOMCTL.OCX fixed my problems 1 Driver and 8 hotfixes were added with no errors. Tested in vmware and windows updates only shows 4 updates instead of 10 an none of those were ones I integrated.

I'd like to know what the problem was

found it in my syswow64 folder Open admin cmd prompt RegSvr32 %windir%\Syswow64\mscomctl.ocx /U The ocx should UNregister. Then immediately.... Regsvr32 %windir%\Syswow64\mscomctl.ocx I don't include that in my install and may have to add if you missing it I was missing it. I searched with google and found a place to download it.

I'm still having a problem adding drivers. Working with a 64bit win 7 ultimate image and I'm running on an install of the same. When I open my driver file my desktop is blank. I can see se7en running in task manager. I let it run for 6 hours and finally killed the process. I started se7en up again and clicked on list and this window popped up. So maybe its something installed wrong on my system or something.

This is whats in my appswitch.sat file I tried choosing to delete files then running again it copies with no errors. one thing I forgaot to note is it doesn't mount the image as soon as I press a key in the copy cmd windows se7en starts. Before I think 2 command prompt windows would show one at a time mounting the image. before se7en restarts. Just noticed there are two test files in my Se7en installation named CopyNow and CopyEnd showsing the start and stop times of the copy cmd

working with win7 x64 image installed Se7eb verion 6.0.1 on win7 x64 It copies the dvd without errors but when se7en restarts the copy checkbox is still unchecked and I can't check the next box

This will install to the second partion on disk 0 <ImageInstall> <OSImage> <InstallTo> <DiskID>0</DiskID> <PartitionID>2</PartitionID> </InstallTo> <InstallToAvailablePartition>false</InstallToAvailablePartition> <WillShowUI>OnError</WillShowUI> </OSImage> </ImageInstall>

Error: 30 The command completed with errors. That points to a driver problem and you can see which in the cmdoutput. Thats why I pause them so you can see which. Far as the interface not coming back I'll look into that. First thought before I looked at your cmdoutout was a boatload of drivers. Some of those driver folders you extract has 60 or more inf's in them and takes awhile to process each individually. What you done was ok and you can complete the creation or try to find a better driver. Usually and I do mean Se7en has some good driver support so you could install and see if it complains Thanks for your help. I'll look into getting better drivers. I tried it with other drivers and some of those worked. Maybe I'll try the other method and just make a file. But I still had the interface problem, if you need any more info about that let me know and I'll find help on my drivers somewere else so I don't clutter up this thread

Drivers: I'm working with a 64bit image When I check on drivers then click on yes and browse to my drivers folder the user interface goes away but se7en_UA is still running in task manager and cpu usage is 0% all my drivers have been copied to C:\Se7en_UA\uaDVD\sources\$oem$\$1\Drivers The first time I just killed the process in taskmanager and continued on I was able to make a working DVD to install windows 7 to a virtual machine using an evaluation copy of Vmware 7 could it be a problem with my drivers? :Edit Didn't notice the errors before when I packed the image Im including copies of the ouput whenit was trying to inject the drivers and the drivers.log

Its only one system, I first build it with the one 1.5TB drive. Then I thought that a RAID would be faster so I bought the 2 750GB drives for the RAID and was going to use the single drive for backup. I was surprised when thy both got the same score. I did run the winsat command on the raid array and saved a picture using the clipping tool. Later I'll install to the single drive and compare the output. I'm sick of reinstalling all my stuff right now so It may be awhile. Guess I should have just used 2 drives one for my windows install and one for backup. But now I'm curious about what kind of drive or controller I would have to install to bring the score up. Adnd would it be worth it.

Could some one please explain why I get the same disk transfer rate when running 2 750GB seagae drives in raid 0 as I do running 1 2.5TB single drive. In HDtach the raid 0 array is almosr double the average read speed of the sing drive. I also disabled write caching just to see if it would have an affect, but it didn't. I've posted my wie
