Nope...entirely different than what I need to do. I have a .WIM file. I want a drop in DVD that runs (automatically without user interaction and on a PC that has a blank HDD) DISKPART, follows a set of DISKPART commands; i.e. select disk 0, clean, create partition primary, assign letter = c:, format fs = ntfs quick, exit THEN...from the command prompt that you just exited into run the following 'imagex /apply <driveletter>:\images\baseimage.wim 1 c:' Then when applied it exits out to reboot the PC at which time the image takes over and completes the install.

I am sure I can...BUT...does someone have a well put together outline or tutorial on it... hehe... In the event I figure it out all myself I will be making a step by step document of the process...as well as if I get assistance and can just make it happen... Thanks, Chris

I can't find anything that will open the archive. 7zip doesn't even recognize it as valid. Thoughts?

I don't know how this ended up in the USB forum to start with, but I should have also mentioned that I am trying to install a Windows XP image (.WIM) in this process. Can it be moved out of Windows 7 and into there please. Thanks, Chris

Ok...so the topic title is complex, but there has to be a solution for this out there from someone. I have 150 machine to deploy that all use the exact same WIM image. My goal is to create a 'DROP IN' bootable DVD that will: 1) automatically start (boot from DVD) 2) run diskpart with a set of basic commands (diskpart /s diskpart.txt) 3) run imagex command against an image file that is on the SAME DVD 4) reboot the PC I want this to be done without any user interaction other than dropping the DVD in the machine, hitting a key to boot from it, and walking away. I have 8 spots on the bench so I just want to go right down the row. I know that would mean 8 seperate DVDs (one for each machine), but that isn't the problem. I also want to have the same DVD usable in the field for on the spot reimages. Thoughts?? I appologize in advance if this is somewhere, but this site has so much great information it was a little overwhelming searching it out...also there are a million other ways to do it that I can't seem to filter out of my searches. Thanks, Chris
