I installed the X64 version of Thin PC (OS runtime DVD), now everything is working except for my webcam. It's listed as an SCB-1900N in device manager and Windows is telling that it's working correctly but when I try to use it, I get a message telling me the webcam isn't plugging even if it's a webcam integrated to my laptop.
It isn't relevant to the question I asked in the first place but yes I have the X64 version and it's fully activated with an OS runtime serial. Basically, I created a personnalized Image Building Wizard DVD with the Microsoft Image Configuration Editor and then, I used that DVD to install Thin PC using the OS Runtime key.
Well it's relevant in the way that saying you've got Thin PC x64 installed makes it look like you have no idea what you're talking about in the first place, so let's call it WES7. Have you included all of the drivers that are available in the distribution share? If you're only including the ones you're actually using, have you run tap.exe on a running OS install and imported the .pmq in ICE? That should take care of adding the builtin drivers required for the machine. With a webcam, I imagine missing additional software components such as video codecs could be a problem as well. Also check the event log for any errors that might be reported by the webcam driver or software.
Yesterday, I reinstalled Thin PC using the pmq create with tap.exe, now I've got bluetooth working correctly but still no webcam. It's still detected in device manager but it act like it's not plugged.
While I was looking for solutions on the web, I found out that people using Windows 7 N (edition without media player) had the same problem and they solved it by installing Media Player. So, strangely enough, I solved the problem by installing Windows Media Player package. I didn't want to have it on my pc as I prefer to use small software like KMPlayer but anyway... now the problem is solved. I have just one last glitch: my Canon Lide 30 scanner isn't working. Usually, I used it with VueScan as this software provide support for outdated scanner not supported by manufacturer on newer system, but with Windows Thin PC, the installation fail. It tells me that sti.inf is missing, so I installed the sti.inf drivers but it still fail to install.
sti.inf is provided by the "Still Image Acquisition Driver" package (WinEmb-INF-sti.cab). Have you installed the whole package, and not just the sti.inf file? That package also has a language pack dependencies, so if you're installing it with dism to an online image, remember to also reinstall the language pack(s) you are using afterwards.
I finally tried to install the whole package as you described but it still doesn't work. Here's the event log for the installation error: Code: 0 PnPDriverInstallError Not available 0 x64 00000002 scanners.inf 2633296d21ea3ecae96a030fb5d1cbfa785dacba USBScanner C:\Users\Nicolas\AppData\Local\Temp\DMI6113.tmp.log.xml C:\Windows\inf\oem10.inf C:\Users\Nicolas\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\WER\ReportQueue\NonCritical_x64_7e78fbd3737a652e82c6ab53f73f02ce7f778_cab_09c1619f 0 8bc626c0-3504-11e1-973e-c44619b24ee0 4
Just in case someone else have the same problem, I finally found the solutions after weeks of searching for it. It's just that Windows is looking for the file USBscan.sys at the wrong place. The file was already there on my HD but I needed to copy it in C:\Windows\inf folder because Windows was looking for it in that folder.
