    @searchengine...
    Correct me if I am wrong....wouldnt the shutdown command kick the run once Display.exe out from running? I remember reading something about it a while back.

    I have USB instead of DVD

    Can i just drag the "$oem$" Folder into Source folder inside the USB? <- will that work?

    Or do i have to recompile iso again.

    If you mean that you have a bootable USB, with your iso contents added, then yes, just add '$oem$' folder into existing 'sources' folder inside the USB.

    Thanks a lot.

    Can I ask

    what exactly the folder win7 - optional -> "Autounattend.xml - optional".

    What will happen if i place the "Autounattend.xml" to my Root Bootable USB and Boot my USB Windows 7 AIO?

    I click on this file "$oem$\$$\Setup\scripts\OOBE.cmd" <- it just disappear from my Bootable USB...Is it suppose to disappear?

    If the OOBE.cmd disappear from my USB. then if i want to install a new fresh win7 on another laptop.
    Do I have to manually add the "OOBE.cmd" inside the script folder, on USB for this $oem$ to work on different laptop?

    I just got 2 Laptop for free Dell Inspiron 1525. I want to install this windows 7 on it.

    If you ran the oobe.cmd file which it sounds like you did.....that was a mistake and u will have to redownload again if ya dont have it on your computer anymore. Just copy the $oem$ folder to the sources folder and that is all u have to do. When installing it will auto install $oem$ folder contents. Searchengine did a great job on this.

    As far as the dell laptop.....probably only has slic 2.0.....would check that first.....if it is only 2.0 you will either use windows loader by Daz or mod the bios which can be risky if you are not familiar with doing that.

    yes....replace oobe.cmd to scripts folder. But with those two lappy's that I have read about only comes with slic 2.0 (Vista) so the oem activation will fail (oem activation is tied to your bios on the motherboard) so you will need to use windows loader by Daz which you can get here at this forum to activate it.

    Windows Loader by Daz is the best solution for activation other then bios mod (which can be risky).

    Do $oem$ folder will give me any error if i dont remove it from my USB while installing windows 7 on my dell laptop?

    or u want me to remove the $oem$ folder and then install Windows 7, then use Windows Loader by Daz?

    do i have to put the Autounattend.xml into my USB too? (because it said optional) so i didnt put it.

    no errors will arise...just wont be activated.....its up to you.
    you can remove it or leave it.....oem folder will install background and such but wont be activated is all. When at desktop just run the windows loader by Daz and all will be good.
    That is up to you.....like said in txt file it is optional.

    :worthy: what a lovely nickname and what a lovely project .. man I love your work in our culture a true leader is the one who can tell a story to 5 years old child or man 100 years old and achieve his aims.. sir that is you and it is obvious in your work .. you are a true leader thank you so much for all you've done till now and thank so so much for what is coming next and i'll be thankful for you forever.. when I tell someone about the project and how much easy is it.. open your ISO with UltraIso add '$oem$' folder to the 'sources' folder of your Windows 7 or Windows Vista.iso.. add 'Autounattend.xml' to the root of your media.. he couldn't imagine that and repleacing 'Custom_Theme_[readme].txt' with 'Force_Theme_[readme].txt' was a good move that one kills me congratulations sir I salute you :cap:
    BTW I was going to ask about 'Autounattend.xml' why adding it is optional? I thought it was responsible for OEM brand's but just arrived to page 30 post 292 - you know everynight I read as much as I could form your thread - then I understood it's about services... so good job sir and I just put it there.. FYI I'm not a coder or programmer I always do a lot of help for friend's/familly computer I think you call it in your language a geek and I'm 42 years old but I learn by reading from someone like you so my question is it all that urie talked about in post 290.. you know in case someone asked.. another thing sir can you write a script or .reg whatever you call it with some instruction put it in separate link or inside your project as you like for those which there OS still working last thing would you please put "what is new" in 1st page I barely notice the date :bye1:

    Hi guys, I have a question I'm sure one of you can help me out with. I have a Toshiba Satellite L755-S5256 that had a hard drive fail so I installed a different hard drive and used the multi-brand multi-edition dvd to re-install Win 7 Home Premium(which it came with). Install seemed to go good but when it was done my Toshiba was transformed into a Panasonic. I have used this DVD on many other laptops including Toshibas and never had this happen before. What do you suggest I do to fix this or how do I fix this?

    TIA

    If you are using USB Just download the last update form 1st page and pick up 'Custom_Theme_[readme].txt' and put it in Toshiba brand folder and you'll be fine

    @helmet605...

    alhokagi's suggestion to use 'Force_Theme_[readme].txt' to 'force' apply Toshiba would workaround this situation... to troubleshoot the problem and find a proper fix cerberus8855's suggestion to return details from .bat file would be helpful to analyse your error.

    I trust you are using the 'Sept 2012' project files, and have not edited any files from the project?
