Sp_Star is awesome, it is the origin of all the Win8.1 RamOS around

He took things from Win8pese and I took stuff from him, all this is really fine

I searched for a long time today for the installation problem of PowerISO, probably also other Install.

Strange, it is related to shortcuts.exe which works very well for over 3 years

It seems to be related with Autoit on Windows 8.1. I tried with the latest beta 3.3.9.25, it's the same

for information, Sp_Star only use Pecmd.ini (RamOSInit.ini with Link, Pint, Exec...). He does not use PecmdInit.ini

neon2m,

Use pecmd completely

do not use shortcuts.exe

Shortcut -> Link

Autorun --> Exec

OT and JFYI, this might interest you (Win7PESE, actually WinFE related):

Nice article for WinFE users. Always happy to see Win7PE_SE used

Shortcut file generated is likely to look for related problems.

You're right, the problem comes from shortcuts, indeed cache ? BSOD "cache_manager" ?

but it does not comes from a particular shortcuts. It is a bit random depending on the number of shortcuts created.

Pecmd Link or shortcuts.exe => same problem

Win8.1SE or Sp-Star Win8.1 RamOS 1215 (adding LINK) => same problem

Win8.1SE with fewer shortcuts created, works also.

To test without PowerISO, just go to StartScreen and return with the down arrow.

I have no idea how to solve !!!

Otherwise,China WinBuilder-1215 is really nice but It lacks some files to make PowerISO operates (regsvr32.exe, oleaut32.dll,...). Same for other tools like Procmon.

I have no idea how to solve !!!

TEst End.

Now Very Good!

Hi neon2m,

The problem of cache manager is the same in Win8.1SE 2012-12-10, 2012-10-16 package or Sp-Star build.

It depends on the number of script selected and the number of thumbnails created for the ModernUI.

I used a workaround, for now, found on the Chinese forum.

Remove thumbcache.dll in Win8.1SE OS to avoid Cache manager BSOD.

but the thumbnails are lost in ModernUI, not a big concern with StartIsBack or CLassic Shell.

I added the deletion of thumbcache.dll in Optimizations script. It is on server.

I am on holiday with my familly.

Happy Christmas

Happy Christmas

Thank you.

Merry Christmas!

Best wishes for a Happy New Year!

I can't get the created ISO working with a Baytrail Tablet. I can boot from the UEFI USB drive, but I only see a flickering on the screen (screen changes between black and blue).

Was anyone else able to use it on a 8.1 Baytrail Tablet?
