The output File size of my 8 in 1 aio was 4.64GB Which exeeds the requirements to burn on an average dvd5 which has a maximum of 4.37GB Options are to use an 8GB usb thumb drive or a dvd9 DL, I wouldn't really know what would be safe to remove to reduce the size sorry! maybe someone know
This tutorial works with windows 8.1 ? I want to convert windows Pro 8.1 for PRO 8.1 WITH WMC,i can use these commands posted? dism and ADK ? THANKS.
You use the same method you used on 8.0, except you have to use 8.1preview or 8.1final dism. Code: dism /mount-wim /wimfile:c:\win81\sources\install.wim /index:1 /mountdir:c:\mount dism /image:c:\mount /set-edition:ProfessionalWMC dism /unmount-wim /mountdir:c:\mount /commit imagex /flags "ProfessionalWMC" /info c:\win81\sources\install.wim 1 "Windows 8.1 Pro with Media Center" "Windows 8.1 Pro with Media Center"
Thanks for this fantastic guide. Please can you tell me have a x86 safe mode with this AIO? or x64? or both? I have make an win 8 AIO and have x86 safe mode only. If can i have both safe modes (x86 + x64) is the best. Thanks
Wim file into the Windows 8.1 and Windows 7 windows 8 is a problem we should choose for integrated windows 8 wim file before the problem had not had integrated into the windows 7 Do you have tried?
Thanks for this tutorial, - Can I create this image of Win 8.1 AIO in a Windows 7 x64 system? - Or do I have to install Win8.1 first and install ADK and use the scripts? If the latter is the case, is there any other application to download to create Win8.1 AIO on Win7? Any help would be much appreciated
Hi everybody, I have a strange issue, I created today from Win8.1 Pro Iso a Win8.1 iso with WMC integrated. Creating the iso was no problem. The only problem is I can't install any WMC keys after Installation. I get Error 0xc004f061 In Windows 8, open the Registry Editor Search for MediaBootInstall and set the value to 0. Open an elevated command prompt (run as administrator) and enter: slmgr /rearm If you get an access denied error message, you’re not running the command prompt with administrator privileges Restart the computer Open a command prompt and enter: slui 3 Enter your Windows 8 upgrade license key and activate it This solution does not work, tried this many times. With Windows_8_wmc.iso I never had this problem. Could install wmc Product keys without problems. Did Microsoft change this maybe. So someone could only go to wmc version after install Win 8 Pro ???
You can do this tuto on a win7 x64 and x86 no problem just make sure you install the windows 8.1 ADK to work with the windows 8.1 image
Needs a data.dat file from an activated windows 8.1 pro before you can enter a wmc key to activate!! Best to use your own data.dat from an activated win8.1 pro if you have one!! if not u can google for a data.dat or search the forum :}
Using anyone else's data.dat is ill-advised. They could theoretically wipe your system activation out with a simple WAT update to block certain installation ID values from the data.dat It's really better to do your prowmc method like this: Install win8.1 pro Activate win8.1 pro with retail or oem key. Upgrade to WMC using your wmc upgrade key. Save the %windir%\system32\spp\store\2.0 folder. Now you can install directly to prowmc and simply copy the 2.0 folder over the old files (data.dat, tokens.dat, cache) You can even copy the files onto a mounted prowmc index IIRC. I seriously would avoid using someone else's data.dat. You would likely be vulnerable to not only the wat update, but some strange background errors that most people aren't aware of. Only people who monitor the eventvwr.msc stuff would likely know the difference.
If you would have read correctly.. you would have noticed ambidav did say (Best to use your own data.dat from an activated win8.1 pro if you have one)..
