got everything working and integrated guys but when I use Code: imagex /export /check /compress fast c:\wu\iso\sources\install.wim * c:\wu\iso\sources\install2.wim it fails at random times with Code: ImageX Tool for Windows Copyright (C) Microsoft Corp. All rights reserved. Version: 6.1.7600.16385 Exporting: [c:\wu\iso\sources\install.wim, *] -> [c:\wu\iso\sources\install2.wim] [ 50% ] Exporting progress: 4:43 mins remaining Error exporting image #1. Access is denied. Fails at 30% 43% etc.. have opened the WAIK command prompt with admin privilidges.. install.wim has 2 images in it.. i have tested a ISO with that and works fine I just want to compress it so it fits in 1 DVD.. currently the ISO becomes 5GB Any alternate ways / GUI to compress install .wim ?? Thanks EDIT: FIXED.. I had to disable MSE (antivirus) BUT the fast compress install.wim is actually bigger than the original created by tool.. bummer.. will try max compression. don't look like i will be able to fit in 1 DVD (2 images.. ultimate 32 and 64bit with all hotfixes till date)
Just some notes: 1. Use an USB stick instead of a DVD; the installation of Win7 is much faster using an USB stick than using a DVD. 2. Start with a clean DVD image(no updates installed) and only add the latest updates. Adding/removing/adding/removing... makes the images bigger and bigger. (my reference DVD image for x86 is about 9gb now) 3. Using a RAM disk for upate integration can speed up the process. When using a RAM disk, also set the %TMP% and %TEMP% values to it. BUT only do that in the batch, so this change only affects the dism process.
These updates say have been deleted, but still appear in the page. Is it a mistake? 2619331 removed (superseded) 2675469 removed (superseded)
Weirdest thing, when I made a x86 image with all x86 updates integrated (offline), I got WU offering the following updates in my VM install: KB2633171, KB2585542 The x64 build I had done earlier did not ask for these updates. BTW, neither my x64 or x86 updates collection contain those 2 updates, and I don't see them in the McRip x86 repo either (or any mention of them in the change log). So for some reason WU was offering them on the x86 install in my case. I've added them back into my personal x86 collection for now.
You can find both of the on my server. 2633171 is normal on x86 2585542 is superseded by 2695401 and 2654875. did you install both?
Ah, thank you For some reason, 2695401 was not present in my x86 folder, so I believe that explains that. 2633171 I will keep in the x86 folder then. Solved
