Hello!

Looks like a version conflict.

Mounting Windows Win7 boot.wim with ImageX...
ShellExecute: [Hide] using: [%BaseDir%ProjectsToolsWin7PE_SEX86imagex.exe] with parameters: [/mount "C:Win7Usourcesboot.wim" 2 "%BaseDir%MountWin7PE_SESourceBootWimSrc"]
ImageX mount boot.wim return : 2
[//-]
Mounting Windows Win7 install.wim (Index : 5 - Ultimate) with ImageX...
ShellExecute: [Hide] using: [%BaseDir%ProjectsToolsWin7PE_SEX86imagex.exe] with parameters: [/mount "C:Win7Usourcesinstall.wim" 5 "%BaseDir%MountWin7PE_SESourceInstallWimSrc"]
ImageX mount install.wim return : 2
[End]

return 2 means Wimgapi.dll error.

If you have Win7x86 SP1 as the host system, you must use wimgapi.dll (6.1.7600.16358) version suitable to ProjectsToolsWin7PE_SEx86 Imagex6.1.exe (6.1.7600.16358).

The ProjectToolsWin7PE_SEx86 and x64 files are included in the package nettyPE.zip.

You need absolutely no WAIK.
The source is a original Win7 DVD or ISO.
Please copy the Win7 DVD or ISO files conveniently on HDD in a source directory.

I suggest the following way:
C:Windowssystem32wimgapi.dll rename to wimgapi.dlo.
ProjectsToolsWin7PE_SEx86wimgapi6.1.dll copy to C:Windowssystem32 and rename it to wimgapi.dll.

Run WinBuilder.

If that does not work you should download the Windows 7 Enterprise 90-day trial iso (see above) and use as a source.

Using the tool RT Se7en Lite can integrate SP1.

There the slipstream method is used.

Hi NetFan Tom,
Thank you for responding.
've Done everything according to your suggestion but still with the old error message. Have now all wimgapi.dll (6.1.7600.16358).
Something like imagex wimutil or not because I get the error message in all Projecten.
Only multiPE is running.
regards Klaus

I found the error:
For Vista and Windows 7, there is a "genuine" and any number of "restricted" administrators.
In Windows 7 and Vista, the Administrator account is disabled by default.
How can you fix it
Computer Management in the left pane, navigate through "Local Users and Groups" to "user".
Now is a necessary double-click Administrator. Remove the check next to "Account is Disabled" and click OK.
Now I just have to find a way to "restricted" Admin (Klaus) to make unlimited.

Mounting is with the "real" admin without problems.

regards Klaus

Hi!

But when you start the WinBuilder, you will be asked if you want to run it as admin. You should answer yes.

All child processes are then - WinMount also - just run as admin.

I think 0-PreConfig is still a little bit buggy.

Sorry, we are working on it already.
You can avoid this bug, if you make the following in Images configuration:

Allways use WimMount Driver (very slow) Disable
Wim Tools Auto
only
Detect and Use the best Image Index is activated.

If WIMMount driver is deactivated, then Wimfilter is used.
The Wimfilter setting means to use the 6.0 versions.
Wimfltr.sys has version 6.0.6001.18000
The 6.0 ImageX.exe and 6.0 wimgapi.dll also work on Win7x86 SP1.

Hello,

I will try this project over the weekend and provide feedback, is the most recent version available on the download portal?

Hello,

I tested but unfortunately it failed to recognize/like my source, a Windows 7 Professional x86 SP1 unmodified image that can be downloaded directly from Digital River at http://msft.digitalr...n/X17-24280.iso

The project is running on a NTFS partition (F:) from a Windows 7 Ultimate x86 machine.

Here is the log:
https://docs.google....jEwMjUxNzQ0NTM3

I liked the format of the log, already compressed, tagged and ready to upload.

btw: There is a typo at 1-files.script: "UnMountig WIM files".

Hi!

nettyPE is designed to use an original Windows DVD or ISO as the source,
thus are used standard network driver and the network share.

I have tested nettyPE successfully with Windows 7 Enterprise 90-Day Trial SP0 and SP1
in English and German. Therefore, I am assuming that the language of the source does not matter.

Windows 7 Enterprise 90-day trial, anyone can download at the following address:
http://technet.micro...r/cc442495.aspx
If you want to have another language version, click on the United States (English) link in the upper right corner.
You can change the language.

I use the everyone officially downloadable Enterprise version.

The Enterprise version is so much like the Ultimate version.
32-bit Windows 7 Ultimate x86 SP1 (X17-24394.iso).

I would consider it.

Hello!

nettyPE_2011_11_07 is out.

I have integrated grub4dos-0.4.5b-2011-11-04.7z by chenall and Win7PE_SE_2011_10_20 as a base.

I tested the following sources:

Win7x86 Enterprise SP0 and SP1 German and English
X17-24 280 Professional
X17-24 394 Ultimate

Everything is excellent.

In particular, I'm 0-preconfigt.script examined:
Without any bug. Excellent work by NightMan, Modified by yahooUK, JFX, ChrisR and Lancelot - many thanks.

Hi, almost one year passed but i just tried your Pe today. Finally something i can build without much stress. I had some errors too but i could build a nice PE today. My problems are drivers. nettyPE don't recognize the wi fi card of my notebook, just the lan. I tried to put last drivers from driverpacks (compressed) as specified on script's description in winbuilder but still i can't use wi fi connection with it and i need internet connection of course :-D

Have you any clue? am i missing something?

Thank you
