Oscdimg.exe –u2 –b"C:\Users\zythyl\Desktop\expandedSetup\boot\etfsboot.com" –h "C:\Users\zythyl\Desktop\expandedSetup" C:\7.iso

^^Is this the command your are running?

Yep, except I deleted all the quotation marks and put a space in between the "b" and "C"... other than that, it's identical.

Can you run the command as I have provided-unaltered to see if it works?

Here you go:

Ok...

I'll be lurking here in the meanwhile.

My \expandedSetup\boot dir does not have the 'etfsboot.com' file. It does have 'bootsect.exe' so I pasted that into the command string and it worked. So if you are having problems with the string published here, check your expandedSetup\boot dir for the file you have. If you have bootsect.exe try:

oscdimg -bC:\expandedSetup\boot\bootsect.exe -h -u2 -m -lWIN_EN_DVD C:\expandedSetup\ C:\win7.iso

That worked for me.

How to create a Windows Vista / 7 installation disc - ImgBurn Support Forum

Sort of worked for me; I forgot to change the "sectors to load" field to the correct value so this could explain why I get error code 5 when trying to install from the disc by booting from it but I've just used my fista 64 bit OS to install from without issue!

THIS WORKED ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESSLY.

Fantastic!

Ok, got past that error. This one I have no idea what to do. It says it can't delete existing file. The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.
UPDATE!
Holy Potato sacks, I figured out my problem again. I'm on a roll. The problem was that I pasted it into the command prompt. Just to let you guys know, DO NOT paste it in the command prompt. You have to type it in MANUALLY or it will not work right.

I've gotten everything to work and burned the .iso to a dvd. When i boot from the dvd it goes into the Starting Windows thing and loads and all, but when I get to the part with the blue and green background (where you can see your mouse for the first time) nothing ever loads. I can move my mouse around so I know my computer isn't freezing, but no menus or anythign come up.

Does anyone know have any idea what is causing this problem?

I do have the same problem an i wonder if anyone has fixed it alreday.

My mistake there is suppose to be no space between -bC:\User

Just there is suppose to be no space in etfsboot.com

I end up making my own line to use

oscdimg -bC:\Users\USERNAME\Desktop\expandedSetup\boot\etfsboot.com -h -u2 -m -lWIN_EN_DVD C:\Users\USERNAME\Desktop\expandedSetup\ C:\7.iso

That worked for me

Worked for me last night, THANKS to the ppl on the forum for all your help. I used Imgburn to burm my iso file, works perfectly.
