January 21, 200917 yr I am surprised no one has posted this yet but the WAIK Beta for PE 3.0 is available for download. There have been quite a few changes to it most of which look pretty good.My internet sucks too bad right now to find it again on the MS site but they have the link at OS Attack. http://www.osattack.comThe best change I saw on the list though is the addition of the ability to boot from a USB device or at least thats what it looks like the command means.
January 21, 200917 yr This was posted elsewhere, but in another forum. http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=128772Do you know if a new OPK version has come out as well?
January 27, 200917 yr Author I still havent been able to find the OPK beta. Has anyone else had better luck?
January 27, 200917 yr I asked to my rep but he hasn't gotten back to me. He asked for my PE version (I have an open SR currently) and didn't say anything about needing something newer. There are a bazillion single updates to the OPK itself. Last week's OCE Weekly summary said there was an update to the December 2008 OPK and Supplements. As far as my job scope, I am only concerned with OPK updates that affect the WinPE, not so much unattended deployments or WSIM, etc, that's someone else's job here. I'm current as far as I know, with WinPE v6.0.6000 with the Vista SP1 Servicing package installed.

January 29, 200917 yr Author Is this the link that some of you have been looking for?Windows Automated Installation Kit (Windows 7 Beta)That is the WAIK which is easily obtainable. What we are looking for is the OEM Preinstallation Kit (I think thats right) which is more commonly called the OPK.
January 30, 200917 yr Wow nice! I have something to mess with this weekend. Meh. Can not install both versions on the same machine. Guess im going to have to build a machine in VM to test this out. Edited January 30, 200917 yr by necrosis
February 14, 200917 yr Author You can't use both versions on the same machine but you can modify a PE 2.0 with the PE 3.0 WAIK. I actually was doing quite a bit with it before I actually built a full PE 3.0.
