    So there is no need of GImageX according to updated guide

    You forget to rename index 7 ISO :eek: Retry with new updated guide from first post.

    If renaming is all he needs he can do this with WinAIO Maker Professional v1.3 (sorry, I'm 4 posts short of what's required to post a link but it's very easy to find).

    What serial does one have to use?

    Do you use a Pro serial during install then enter the WMC serial post install?

    Anybody know where to buy a WMC serial other than the upgrade wizard in Windows 8?

    It's upgraded pro edition to media center offline using dism and all editions install with default keys by using the ei.cfg, media center installs with the media center default product key. In oobe you are asked for a product key which you can skip

    I think you're confused between the original post and the one on page 11 that enables an upgrade disc. There you always have and still have to do the overwrite to enable upgrade capability and there's no new commands added to that. The original post has two new commands for image naming and never had an overwrite task.

    Not sure if somebody could point me into the right direction but after I followed all these steps and created my ISO how could I add all the latest updates and LAN drivers to the iso?

    I have a legit pro key, can I use that during setup with WMC?

    Does anybody know where to buy WMC upgrade keys from non Windows 8 machines?

    Like from a Microsoft Store page

    Is it possible to add the Windows 8 enterprise N x86/x64 versions, and other N versions as well.

    There's rt7lite.com but it's for 7--not aware of anything yet for 8 but I'm sure there will be.

    +1 or if you could upload it on rapidshare or any other file sharing site it would be of great help.

    That would really be a hassle for him, with seeding and all. Uploading to rapidshare, etc., also takes forever. The original .iso's and ADK kit are readily available by the same method and then all you have to do is follow the instructions.

    Is this guide applicable to Retail Pro only? I tried with Pro VL images and it doesn't work.
