RickSteele Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 (edited) OS=Windows 7 Ultimate (x64) OEM (purchased by me from NCIX.com-B.C. e-tailer)Fresh install, boot partition securely erased, 2*300G VelociRaptor in RAID0Implemented but still need testing:12. Themes integrationSigned themes integrate correctly.6. Known bugs1. 7Customizer sometimes fails to read the images information correctly (This is related to using 7Customizer on a modified installation source)(This issue is solved in 0.4.4 but it is still not tested).Reads modified installation source correctly, but, in tweaks will show services for features that have been previously disabled using DISM (a limitation in DISM-"disable pending")update: This, however, does not carry over into the completed install-all features disabled in the previously modified source are mirrored in Services with no entries. Would it be possible, perhaps, to read the current machines registry (if it has the OS being modified installed) and include an option to mirror the services states in 7Customizers' services tweaks section?2. 7Customizer might not label the ISO.Labels ISO correctly.3. When selecting updates 7Customizer, some time you will be able to select one update only. If you select more than one update 7Customizer will crash.(This issue is solved in 0.4.4 but it is still not tested).I used 7Customizer on an untouched source and a modified source; on the first I included close to 300 updates-it integrated all correctly; on the second I included only one additional update-the modified source already has the "close to 300 updates integrated"; again it performed flawlessly.Would it be possible to allow 7Customizer to recognize cabbed updates-not in msu format, ie: such as those contained in windowsupdateagent30-7.4.7600.226-x64.exe-in the future, or executables?One last thing I found to be very nice was 7Customizer immediately found all the OPK files it required on launch-I have the latest OPK installed-without browsing for anything.....very nice program, thanks much!UpdateBoth iso's created as above ie: untouched and modified, installed without error on OEM win 7-64bit Ultimate...beautiful!!!

RickSteele Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 (edited) @BlueI have yet a problem which is not solved. The Marvell Yukon Ethernet Driver v11.24.5.3 is not integrated. Your tool does not report any problems while it works. Have you any idea ? All other drivers are integrates without probs.DISM does not cooperate with this Driver ? I have extract the files with 7zip.I had a similar problem and solved it by moving my drivers all to one folder at the root of my DISM working folder; DISM has a queer problem sometimes with the way a folder is named ie: 64-bit Floppy Configuration Utility_9.6.0.1014 vs 64-bit_Boot_9.6.0.1014; it will not recognize the first name, consequently not integrating the drivers, once renamed to the latter=no problem. I named my Marvel LAN driver folder yk62x64_v11.24.3.3. Also, DISM does not seem to appreciate too much folder depth-folders within folders, within folders.......I have eliminated all white spaces in any of the folder names I wish to use to modify my source; 7Customizer seemed to like it all.Hope this helps.

pedilover Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 @RickSteeleThanks. I will test it this weekend.I know 7customizer does not like white spaces and the tipp with the folders is not very difficult to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ecclesiastes76 Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 I'm getting an error when I try to launch the executable. Anyone run into this before?

myselfidem Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 (edited) You can find some help for 7Customizer with Windows XP SP3 at he fisrt post:Extract:8. Using 7Customizer in XPNote: I have tested 7Customizer in Windows XP. It did not work well.7Customizer is developed and tested in Windows vista or 7. I will not test nor support 7Customizer under XP because WAIK for 7 does not support XP (This is from Microsoft). However to use 7Customizer in XP you will need two tools: DISM and ImageX.1. To get dism in xp, jaclaz has posted a link to install dism on XP (it is in the first page of this thread).2. To get ImageX in xp, download and install WAIK for Vista. You could also google for this and you might find an easier way.Regards Edited April 29, 2010 by myselfidem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gew Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 This is awsome!One particular item on your to do list is of great interest to me.- "An option to set the Users folder location, program files locations and other folders."This is in fact the only thing I want to customize on my W7 install disc.Any chance you/someone could guide me on exactly where in autounattend.xml I should put this:<FolderLocations> <ProfilesDirectory>%SYSTEMDRIVE%\Usr</ProfilesDirectory> <ProgramData>%SYSTEMDRIVE%\Prg</ProgramData></FolderLocations>I'd be thankful ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue4603 Posted April 30, 2010 Author Share Posted April 30, 2010 @ grabbenEdit: Hey blue got an ide here:)Can you make it able to integrate gadgets for the sidebar?OK. Thanks for the suggestion.@ RickSteeleWould it be possible, perhaps, to read the current machines registry (if it has the OS being modified installed) and include an option to mirror the services states in 7Customizers' services tweaks section?Hmmmm. It is possible. However, I will leave this discussion for a future release.Would it be possible to allow 7Customizer to recognize cabbed updates-not in msu format, ie: such as those contained in windowsupdateagent30-7.4.7600.226-x64.exe-in the future, or executables?If dism support it(which I think it does), then it could be done.Thank you for your valuable feedback. I really appreciate it.@Ecclesiastes76Windows XP is not supported until now. You could wait for a future release.@ GewAny chance you/someone could guide me on exactly where in autounattend.xml I should put this:You could ask your question in this thread here.Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donpham Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 I tried 7Customizer 0.4.4 today with my Win7 Enterprise. The ISO file was created successfully and burnt to dvd disc. However, when I tried to run setup on my Dell OptiPlex 760, I got the error message saying that my CD/DVD device driver is missing. There is no such error when I run setup from the original dvd.Can someone point out what I did wrong and/or why I got this kind of error message?My PC specs:Dell OptiPlex 760Windows 7 Enterprise loadedWAIK for win77customizer v0.4.4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickSteele Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 @blue4603Thanks for the reply...I decided not to quote the post again since it is so recent.Just a couple of other thoughts:1) if possible could you make 7Customizer include the option to load the boot.wim also; I load it to integrate my boot/system (RAID F6/SATA etc.)drivers-it is an option in DISM-you must specify boot.wim index 1 or 2.2)I know removing shipping programs is for later, but, DISM has a builtin feature to disable features; ie: the games, Windows Search, indexing service, Windows Media Center...etc. I like to disable the features with DISM because the services will not load in the install. This is not removing programs persay; it is all completely reversible in either DISM or after install in Programs and Features, so, therefore will not cause anyone any permanent/unreversable grief.Just more food for thought and thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
