Wait what ?.

So if i only have 7 Ultimate, 7C cant mount it beacuse its just one index ? ****..

In our Forum Win-Lite.de Users with only one Imgae in the Win 7 DVD had the same problem.

So we thinking the mistake is this one Image inside the Win 7 DVD.

However you can read the post made by RickSteele 05 June 2010

I installed Enterprise x86 on my daughter's laptop-Dell Inspiron 1720 without issue using 7C along with two other apps; the Install.wim on Enterprise is Index 1 and that is the only install.wim index because there are no other versions included in the iso due to the fact that Enterprise is Ultimate, and only Ultimate.

Tried out the 0.4.4

Got error with a '&' sign in filename in "Windows Install path".

Under the Drivers tab, you have to select sub-drives before you choose the multi"To integrate folder of drivers .....", otherwise it would not be included.

Here are the Mistake of your enterprise Version of Win7:

<WIM>

<TOTALBYTES>2956137226</TOTALBYTES>

<IMAGE INDEX="1">

7Customizer can`t mount Win 7 Version with only one Image in the install.wim.

And your Enterprise Edition had only this one Install.wim Image.

beatmaster

Is there any solution for that problem?

Just for an test!

I've tried successfully to install "Windows 7 Enterprise x86" 90 days evaluate (en-us version) with 7Customizre_0.4.4! :whistle:

I've expand the iso file and put this on the target partition and give the name "WinE" for the folder for all the files. I skip the key with unattended answer file.

I've made with Windows XP SP3, as you can see (same architecture x86).

Here is the log file:

Hi there!

First - big congrats for the developer! I used to use nlite, then vlite and when I've heard that there is no such tool for win7 I was highly disappointed. Then I found this tool and I'm very happy that someone took the hard of continuing the idea of easy customizing system installation CD.

The question I have now is about next release - when it's going to be? I'm going to install windows 7 x64 for the first time (I used to have only 32-bit systems before) and I want to customize it as much as possible and I've seen on the first post that components removal part in on the way. So I wonder if to wait couple of more days or to give a try to v 0.4.4 which was released quite long time ago.

And... I almost forgot. Is there a possibility in the customization process that my account will be Administrator account by default? I'm tired of r-click and "run as administrator" so I wonder if there is a way to always be the administrator :)

Regards!
