It's not that simple that it was with Win XP, I think. I managed it by using ConfigurationSet in the UA Install, so an WPI.cmd gets copied to %systemdrive%\Install and I call it per AutoUnattend.xml. I will try to explain in the next days.

You can place such folder in your install.wim, that not the difficult part.

To run it without errors and run things from cdrom, thats what doesnt work

Ater i opened core.js , i saw the problem, it looks for XP files.

:hello:

	// %CDROM%
li = GetDriveLetters(4);
for (i=0; i<li.length; i++)
{
if (FileExists(li[i]+'\\WPI.HTA') || FileExists(li[i]+'\\WIN51') || FileExists(li[i]+'\\I386\\DRIVER.CAB'))
cddrv = li[i];
}

if (cddrv=="")
{

I just changed the xp things into vista things in core.js , that was all........

LOL even the makers from wpi never respond to this....they had to know after i posted the error, but they didnt.

Glad i found this myself :hello:

Problem solved WPI runs in vista now.

And where do you see Pliek? :blink:

Just edit the core.js

In that file you look for this :

if (FileExists(li[i]+'\\WPI.HTA') || FileExists(li[i]+'\\WIN51') || FileExists(li[i]+'\\I386\\DRIVER.CAB'))

Change "WIN51" and "I386\\DRIVER.CAB" into things that are on your vista DVD.

I use this ( these things are in MY Vista DVD ) :

(FileExists(li[i]+'\\WPI.HTA') || FileExists(li[i]+'\\AppsRoot.txt') || FileExists(li[i]+'\\sources\\install_Windows Vista (vLite) ULTIMATE.clg'))

And to start WPI i used firegeier's guide :

http://firegeier.unattended-sponsor.de/en/applications.html

But instead of installing aps from there i only use this for WPI

%AppsRoot%Install\WPI\WPI.hta

I use RunOnceEx method with wpi (old version wpi lite 1.2 with the 6.0 iernoncedll) no problem with Vista but with UAC DISABLED !

btw, why Microsoft invented the UAC ?!

all n00bs will doesn't know what's question is when UAC pop up,

and all geeks know perfectly what's the pop up and he's boring to click "Continue"
