darph Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 Hi,is it possible to install software on Bart PE after i start Bart PE and boot the system.I have tried it more times but i get every time the message.The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed.This can occur if you are running Windows in safe mode,or if the Windows Installer is not correctly installed.So is this a cut of Bart PE or is the Installer wrong i have copied all files from the installer to Bart PE and create the Regestry entries.Can help me someonedarph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinbate Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 No you cant. Bart PE is on cd so even if you could you would have to install it every time. You need to create a plug in prior to building bart pe cd.For more info see this siteBart PE forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siginet Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 what program is it?BartPe/WinPE use the registry on the CD which makes it read only. There are plugins which will allow you to use a lot of the registry as writeable... but I think Windows Installer Service uses a part of the registry which is not writeable.There are a lot of things you can do in a PE disk... but there are limitations.

vonsmallhausen Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 I do not know whether this will work for Bart PE but I was able to get the Windows Installer service working on Windows PE. Copy the MSIExec.Exe from a valid XP/2003 Source to the System32 directory. Then run MSIExec /RegServerNet Start MSIServerThen the Windows Installer Service will be running.
