Goblin Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 (edited) i am using the version that i asked here, http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/120444-how-to-install-windows-from-usb-winsetupfromusb-with-gui/?p=1049812, page 81. X:\windows\winpresetup.log and inf\setupapi.app.log - no such files. The others are here files.zipThe thing is that this is not like a error, maybe it shouldn't write in logs, it is more like a prompt to install the required drivers Edited November 30, 2013 by Goblin
ilko_t Posted November 30, 2013 Author Posted November 30, 2013 I think you should just use the latest version: www.winsetupfromusb.com/downloads/ Let me know if there are still issues.

Torchizard Posted December 7, 2013 Posted December 7, 2013 I'm having a problem with installing a nlited version of XP Pro. I run WinSetupFromUSB and it completes successfully and it boots into the XP textmode installation. The problem is that the installation lists the partitions of the USB drive that the installer is on and not the internal HDD. Is there anything I could do to get it to show the internal HDD?
ilko_t Posted December 7, 2013 Author Posted December 7, 2013 Look at FAQ #3 :http://www.winsetupfromusb.com/faq/And by the way, it's indeed frequently asked and answered question.
ilko_t Posted December 9, 2013 Author Posted December 9, 2013 Program updated to 1.1, list of changes:(U)EFI support for Windows Vista x64 SP1 and later 64 bits Windows. USB disk must be formatted in FAT32 as per EFI specifications to boot under EFI. To prepare USB disk running the program under Windows XP or 2003, which do not include bcdedit.exe, an active internet connection must be present in order to download it Firadisk driver is now added to each XP 32 bits source, but disabled by default. A new option in DPMS and custom F6 floppy menus activates it. This should help loading SATA/AHCI/RAID drivers from virtual floppy on problematic machinesNT6 sources boot menus are now handled by BOOTMGRfixed recognition of Windows 8.1 sources which contain INSTALL.ESD instead of INSTALL.WIMadded check in boot menu for Linux sources to warn if PLoP is loaded. Linux sources would not work with PLoP loaded as it supports only read moderemoved the ZIP archive as it seems some users tend to launch the program directly from the Windows zip folder view, rather than extracting all files and folders. A self extracting SFX archive is added insteadupdated wimlib to 1.5.3various small bug fixesDownload:http://www.winsetupfromusb.com/downloads/
vatastala Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Hi all, this is the first time I write here, so because there are many many pages sorry If next question was already discussed...I created an usb key with win2003 and win2008 OS, is It possibile to add other win OS to the drive OR the limit is 2 win OS's? I tried but I receive an error says "could not prepare NT6 boot files"However very nice job, thank you
ilko_t Posted December 17, 2013 Author Posted December 17, 2013 The only limit for Windows OS is disk free space, you can put as many as you need.Can you post the log file when the error appeared?The last lost file in next to WinSetupFromUSB.exe, previous log files are in cab archives, data-time stamped, in the backups folder.Find the relevant one, or just put them all in a zip archive and upload it to www.datafilehost.com for example.

ilko_t Posted December 18, 2013 Author Posted December 18, 2013 The output of bcdedit seems to differ when run on Windows with Italian localization and the function parsing BCD store fails. Other languages maybe affected too. I've tested on English and Bulgarian localizations so far.I will have a look what is happening.Meanwhile, if you need to get going quickly and do not need EFI support, use the 1.0 version which does not edit BCD store at all.Please post long text output as attachment or upload it to file sharing service.

ilko_t Posted December 20, 2013 Author Posted December 20, 2013 Program updated to 1.2, list of changes:Fixed bug where program running on Windows localized in other than English language would not add NT6 sourceImproved handling when program is placed and run from directories which contain special characters- `~@#$%^&()-+=,; Single quote – ‘ is not supported in program directory path and there is a check for thatAdded an advanced option for NT6 (Vista and later) sources to add Q-Dir File Explorer, which starts before Setup. This is useful to quickly browse disk contents and backup and restore files before launching Setup, rather than booting first in another OS to perform the same task. When Q-Dir is closed, Setup starts.BootIce updated to 1.3.2.1Download:http://www.winsetupfromusb.com/downloads/
FoxMan Posted December 24, 2013 Posted December 24, 2013 (edited) Revealed a problem, the program refuses to work with images > 4GB in FAT32. In the image max file size <4GBImage - Maz size file - Error - Edited December 24, 2013 by FoxMan
ilko_t Posted December 24, 2013 Author Posted December 24, 2013 ISO file size is 4 217 568 KiB x 1024 = 4 318 789 632 bytes. FAT32 maximum supported file size is 4 294 967 295 bytes, so everything is as it should be, the warning is correct, since the whole ISO file is going to be copied.You have the following options with this ISO:1) Use FAT32 and 1.0 beta versions, which do not copy the whole ISO, but support only one source of this type. If you need EFI, it should need no further modifications if source is Windows 8.X2) Use 1.0 and later versions and NTFS, multiple sources of this kind are supported, but no EFI support with NTFS, unless you load a NTFS driver, for EFI or motherboard manufacturer added NTFS EFI driver.http://www.rodsbooks.com/refind/drivers.htmlhttp://forums.mydigitallife.info/threads/46981-Install-Win8-Windows-8-1-UEFI-With-a-Over-sized%28over-4GB%29-install-wim
