*REQ* help with vlite + windows 7


franner

Recommended Posts

First of all i have used vlite and i know its originally designed for windows vista and therefore is not fully compatible with windows 7.

Anyhow i have read many guides here on MSFN where people say its "safe" to remove serial components in vlite, to strip down some space of windows 7 DVD. I can strip very much of the DVD but I got one specific problem, that is:

Manual Install

.

I use windows 7 x64 not the x86.

When i have removed the "Manual Install" and try install windows 7 it comes with this message:

I have tried to copy the setup.exe from the root to the sources folder but that doesn't change the error. Does anyone know how to get this to work on windows 7? Its the only component i got trouble with right now.

This error, 99.999% of the time, means your installation media is invalid. Re-download the original ISO and retest - if your ISO and the original ISO have the same hash, it should work.

Again, this error is complaining about the underlying installation media having a problem.

The image have no issue.

I can perfectly install it inside virtual machine. The problem is when under vlite i choose "manual install", others have got it worked out but i cant find the solution through search on MSFN, google ect.

I can vlite:

without any problems at all. Its only when choosing "manual install". I have checked MD5 hash on the iso and it fits the original ones.

had the same problem also, so you say if everything is set to unattended install , it will shoot you that error?

In vlite i don't touch unattended install as it breaks windows 7. But putting my autounattended.xml inside the DVD don't solve the problem :(. I know in windows 7 x86 u can put the setup.exe inside the sources folder of the dvd and it will still install without that error. But I don't know if its due to x64 that is the problem here?

this has been mentioned many times in a few of the vliting win7 threads already!!! dont use the unattend option in vlite but importantly, you need to copy the setup.exe from the iso\sources\ folder to the vlited sources\ folder!

I think of what you mean (a DVD wasted for me), go through unnatended when it's done, get your key, open xml file and replace the "pidkey" found in there.

This didn't solve it for me, the problem is not the unattended file and the key. The error happens when I need to choose the hard-disk/partition to install windows 7. So when i set the key inside the unattended xml file I still need to choose the partition and here the error happen ("load driver").

I already said that, i don't use the vlite option unattended. The setup.exe copying I already said too.

I have tried to copy the setup.exe from the root to the sources folder but that doesn't change the error
I used and works like a charm... :thumbup

Could you explain what u did to make it work?

there are 2 setup.exe in the iso, one in the root & 1 in the sources folder! you need the setup.exe from the sources folder that needs copying to the sources folder of the vlite copy
