Problem with resolution on WPI

Featured Replies

Hi,

My pb is : when i install my bootCDxp with WPI on the last step (running WPI interface), the resolution (default: by system) is not good (1280*1024). I tried with 1024*768...is still bad. The resolution seems to be 800*600 ????

Do you have any information / solution.

PS :

- The path of my WPI.cmd : $OEM$\$1\TEMPORAIRES\WPI.cmd

@ECHO OFF

REM Example, how to look for CDROM-drive. Must have a file to identify in its root (like WIN51 or WPI.ico).

for %%i in (C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) do if exist %%i:\Applications.txt set CDROM=%%i:

echo Found CD-Rom as drive %CDROM%

REM Determine the WPI startup path.

REM if wpi should run off the cd the replace %~dp0 with %cdrom%.

set wpipath=%CDROM%

REM Force resolution to needed size for wpi interface.

start /wait %CDROM%\WPI\common\VideoChanger.exe 1280x1024x32@80 -q

REM Hide this command window.

"%CDROM%\WPI\common\cmdow.exe" @ /hid

REM Font installation - the smooth and customizable way.

start /wait %CDROM%\WPI\common\fonts\fontinstaller.exe

REM Special registry tweak needed.

regedit /s "%CDROM%\WPI\common\wpi.reg"

REM Make WPI directory the current directory.

for /f "delims=: tokens=1" %%i in ("%wpipath%") do %%i:

cd "%wpipath%"

REM Start WPI and wait for its end

start /wait \WPI\WPI.hta

REM Cleaning up the desktop.

del /s/q "%userprofile%\desktop\*.lnk"

REM Rebooting the sytem to finalize the installation process.

--shutdown.exe -r -f -t 10 -c "Reboot in 10 sec..."

exit

:end

The file "Applications.txt" is just to identify the CDROM.

My organisation is : see attachement "MyOrganisation".

Thanks for your help.

If your winnt.sif has a [Display] section, set your wpi.cmd to be the same as that.

You can see if it kicks in or not by REM lining all following statements and running it, it should then change your resolution.

You may also want to change the refresh and colour depth.

Does WPI and winnt.sif support a resolution of 1400x1050x32@60?

Do I HAVE to set the refreshrate?

If your graphics card accepts that resolution, your winnt.sif should be ok with that.

Looking at the config screen of wpi the max resolution is 1600x1200, but is does have pre-defined ones, and the nearest that wil probably work best is, 1280x1024.

The refresh rate is to save your eyes and i wouldn't use less that 75, but is optional.

I know alot of people will use 64x480x16@60 because this will always work, even in vga safemode.
