Edit corrected It searches the Interfaces key for specific DhcpIPAddress and sets the variable %IPAddress% Then you could do some commands from there -
Tweak to arrange the Win Explorer shell (right-click)
maxXPsoft replied to coucou's topic in Windows Tips 'n' Tweaks
;7 Add Remove + Background right click [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Directory\Background\shell\Add Remove] @="" "Icon"="imageres.dll,-161" "Position"="Bottom" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Directory\Background\shell\Add Remove\command] @="control appwiz.cpl" In that example we would add "Position"="Top" -
Could copy the uaDvd folder and use that as reference image so don't have to re-do sp1. I know that takes awhile If your zDrivers.txt, zFEATURES.TXT, zPackagelist.txt are 0 byte just delete them and restart 'Se7en_UA.exe 6.5.8: July 13, 2011, 4:34:09 PM ' Discovered while doing 64 bit from a 32 bit OS it was not getting Drivers, Packages, Features

That all looks good but I see something Image File : E:\applications\Se7en_UA\uaDVD\sources\install.wim Normally I say to install to root of drive like E:\Se7en_UA but continue and see if everything works. Without blank spaces in folder it might work. Dism gives us fits if path is bad I discovered something just now and have corrected so new version be up soon ' Discovered while doing 64 bit from a 32 bit OS it was not getting Drivers, Packages, Features

Yes much better to keep off SSD and no need for waik since 7 has everything needed you may be able to fix this by going to tools and install the takeownership and then right click the uadvd folder and Takeownership EDIT: I see the dism error now. delete the log file C:\Windows\Logs\DISM\dism.log and start it up again. zip and attach log here

Ask your Seven xml ? here
maxXPsoft replied to maxXPsoft's topic in Unattended Windows 7/Server 2008R2
Installing that won't prevent. It's like vmware where you have to run it with xp as image in it. A waste of disk if not needed -
How can I load tweaks via reg hives?
maxXPsoft replied to bphlpt's topic in Unattended Windows 7/Server 2008R2
actually there is no perfect way, sometimes some tweaks don't get applied especially HKCU because a current user must be loaded first. Then there's the keys have permissions set on them which you can use setacl to fix http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/tutorial-setting-permissions-on-a-registry-key?replies=8 If all else fails merge a reg after the user is loaded -

Ask your Seven xml ? here
maxXPsoft replied to maxXPsoft's topic in Unattended Windows 7/Server 2008R2
I haven't used XP Mode. I use VMware because it supported 64 bit host/client when I first used Do you have an application won't run in 7? That answers whether you need XP Mode. -
Ask your Seven xml ? here
maxXPsoft replied to maxXPsoft's topic in Unattended Windows 7/Server 2008R2
all you have to do is change processorArchitecture="x86" to processorArchitecture="amd64" No trick, most software will run on 64. I haven't come across very many that won't except if they are 32 bit installer like Acad 2000 May have to download 64 bit installer for some When 32 programs install it will go to Program Files (X86). You have to watch that if you copy some files to Program Files Edit: windows-kb890830-v3.18 there is a 64 bit version of that. I'd just eliminate since it updates monthly -
Login Issue when pushing Win7 image
maxXPsoft replied to n0xi3's topic in Unattended Windows 7/Server 2008R2
I think your image was not created correctly and most likely creating problems. I am guessing you installed and then captured? To use an image for redeployment with xml you must use Audit mode and then do sysprep specifying the 2nd xml as in this example start sysprep /generalize /oobe /shutdown /unattend:Unattended_Win7.xml You can then have the Unattended_Win7.xml on a usb or floppy and it will see it when you go for a test install Depending on what users you used here. You do not want to install applications as Administrator or they might not be useable by other users. Audit mode xml example here and you call the sysprep line above at very end then capture when it does the /shutdown -
Found what was wrong I think 'Se7en_UA.exe 6.5.6: June 26, 2011, 12:39:38 PM ' Correct adding of exe, msi installers with $$\SETUP\Scripts\Setupcomplete.cmd ' Opens tweak file after adding with notepad.

Recall someone using a script after the PC was setup so it would read a file of available names left to use and then set it with .cmd C:\Users\MyUser>net computer /? The syntax of this command is: NET COMPUTER \\computername {/ADD | /DEL} -
