    Trying to make a multiple win7 edition DVD


    So i am making a updated windows 7 DVD with some programs, driver packs, windows updates etcc. I am using the wintoolkit to do so....So i knew of the ei.cfg trick to make my DVD be able to install any version of windows 7. So i did so using the toolkit (and manually) But it wont work. I dont get the screen to choose the OS version. I am using the latest windows 7 SP1 from my volume licensing account. Could it being a volume licensing ISO make a difference?

    Any help would be awesome thanks

    CD or DVD? A Win7 iso takes up 3.09GB and won't fit on a CD.

    Look in the Sources folder to see if the ei.cfg file is there.

    You can include the latest updates following the steps here: TEST -Update 7 installation media

    Let us know what stable method you find to slip drivers in.

    I looked and it aint there. As for integrating drivers i am downloading drivers packs from a website that Win toolkit suggests and integrating them.

    What are these drivers for? Are they newer drivers issued since SP1?

    If there's no ei.cfg file and you don't get a menu to choose version then it is single version installer.
