February 6, 200620 yr Hi!I need to use one of those drivers to install a RAMDrive in my WinPE 1.6 based on Win2K3...-RAMDISK Sample provided by Microsoft site ( http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q257405/ )-RAMDISK driver from Win2K3 installation files ( I386\RAMDISK.IN_ and RAMDISK.SY_ ) I would like to install it without applying registry directly into setupreg.hiv before booting WinPE...Is it possible?Can you provide a clear method to do that?Thanks!ShrimpyOneP.S.: I'm really cheap and I don't want to pay for a RAMDISK Driver to be legit, so use the free drivers that I've handy...
February 7, 200620 yr Yes it is. You need to mount the registry and apply a the ramdriv.reg file to the setupreg.hiv prior to compiling the image. It's called a reg slam.here is how...:LoadRegistry reg.exe load HKLM\NewSys %1\system32\setupreg.hiv:RegistrySlam RegEdit.exe /s "%~dp0\ramdrv.reg":UNLoadRegistry reg.exe unload HKLM\NewSys Chris
