Win 7 winpemaker

[SIW2]

Yes , If you are putting it in pe 3/4/5 no other dependencies. Just put the correct bit version NT6Repairx64 or NT6repairx86 into pe system32 directory. It will run just fine.

Hi SIW2

I have a little doubt about the Get Shadows function of NT6Repair tool. If i have three restore points, NT6Repair will mount them in folders 1, 2 , 3 etc. Since there is no restore point creation date is visible, how do i know which one is latest ?. I assume the last number will be the latest shadow copy available. Is that correct ?.

 

[SIW2]

You can double check by opening a shadow and looking at the Date Modified column.

I hate to reserect an old thread, but I tried your project and it worked exactly like you said it would with the exception that it did not ask if I wanted an ISO file. Now I have several folders in the root of the C drive. Is there any way to get it to make an ISO of the folders?

 

[SIW2]

Is one of the folders called "ISO" ?

How did you "supply" the original W7 files?

It is intended to be pointed at either a folder containing the installation files, or at the the dvd drive with win7 dvd in.

That may have been why my first attempts failed (I mounted the W7 ISO in Virtual CloneDrive).

After I copied the W7 ISO files to the C: drive, my next attempt was successful.

New version soon. Updated with support for newer program versions, much improved appearance. It should support all languages, too.

Yes, one of the files is called ISO, but not all of the files are in it and it isn't bootable. I supplied the files from a USB but had a blank DVD in the DVD driive and there is no iso file on the usb or any new files. It just never asked to make an iso. Guess I'll just wait for the new improved version. Thanks.

New Version : https://www.dropbox.com/s/u9da7zau3fpc9kg/pe764v7.zip

Improved appearance, new versions of penetwork, bootice, mkisofs. Supports new programs, e.g. paragon backup and recovery free 2014.

Requires win7SP1 x64.iso any edition. All languages now supported.

Installation media can be iso files extracted to HD, or dvd in the dvd drive, or .iso mounted in virtual drive.

SI, I tried it and it worked. I burned the ISO to disk and booted from it and everything seems to be there. It could not load the paragon BR but did load Macrium. It does no have a network adapter, so no internet access. Everything else looks fine.

 

[SIW2]

Thanks for the feedback.

If you are using wireless, you need to run penetwork to start it up.

If it still isn't working after that, it is probably a missing driver. If you have unusual drivers, you can put them in BIN\DRIVERS folder and they will be integrated during the build.

It should add paragon BR FREE 2014. ( It doesn't look for BR 2013).

Thanks, that answers the question about Paragon and I will fix that right now. I only have a wired DSL network. There is no network catagory in device manager and drivers won't install because there is no internet adapyer.I have an Intel 82579V Lan. But, it will do what I need it ro do anyway. It's a pretty cool program. Thanks.

 

[SIW2]

All the drivers that are in boot.wim should be there. If you know the driver you need, you can just pop it in the BIN\DRIVERS folder before running the .cmd file. Everything in there will be installed by dism.

EDIT: It appears to be a known issue. There are instructions for installing in pe, so it appears they are no ms generic drivers already in pe for that.

Do you have a connection when booting winre.wim ( F8 Repair my computer) ?

 

[SIW2]

New version.

No mounting in this one, faster to build.

Resultant pe is serviceable, contains wide range of drivers and allows switching to admin and back to system. ( only switch to admin if you have a program that needs admin token to run).

The best yet.

Downloading now. Thanks.

New version also works fine . I would recommend adding LAN driver collection from the great Driverpacks.net which will cover almost all LAN adapters. For testing hard drives, open source software GsmartControl will be a good choice.

BerliOS Download - The Open Source Mediator

It is light weight, can read SMART data of both HDD and SSD and also can perform short and long SMART self test routine on all hard drives.

btw, still hoping to see a 32 bit version.

 

[SIW2]

Sure, could add more drivers. But it will be huge, bloated with drivers most people don't need. It already includes quite a few.

You can always put your own drivers in the BIN\DRIVERS folder.

You can put any programs into the BIN\W764\Programs folder.

Might get time to have a go at 32 bit this week, it depends on real life.

 

[SIW2]

Yes, it is popular.

Hello SIW2,

I have 2 PCs, one is a desktop that was running XP that got Windows 7 Professional OEM installed in place of XP, (not certain if Win 7 is x32 or x64 as it was done by another person); 2nd PC is a laptop that came with win 7 x64 Home Edition already installed.

I have read this complete posting but have question(s) if you please.
Is there any way to use this win7pe maker using ISO's of programs instead of having programs installed on the PC?
Is it possible to make an iso of Macrium Reflect Free without having to install this WAIK (I believe it's called), and not having to install the Macrium program to the PC?

Thank you very much for your help!

Sincerely,
CP

 

[SIW2]

You can extract program files e.g macrium from its msi installer, then just put the needed files into the BIN\W764\Programs\Macrium folder.

AESDll.dll
LE5.dll
PrimoBurner.dll (or primoburner64.dll for 64 bit)
Reflect.exe
psvolacc.sys
psmounterex.sys


ImgToVHD.exe (optional)
