    I haven't tested Win11 - I think it should work the same as on Win10
    You can also replace the file and apply the registry settings manually e.g in WinPE

    Thanks Gelip. This was my mistake - just as you guessed. :oops:
    Although I had turned the User Account Control Settings to "Never Notify," I was not using the Administrator account. I thought that I was following the tutorial correctly, because the local account had administrator privileges. I now see that this is not the same thing - and the privileges were not high enough.

    I studied the posts you linked and look through the original screenshots in the tutorial again. I saw that I had to actually enable the Administrator account in Windows 10 (just like your screenshots show in Win 7).

    I logged out of my local user account and logged onto the Administrator account.

    I now made it all the way through the tutorial. I will test on the modern pc and update you with my results. Thank you!

    Hi Gelip,

    I've been trying to boot this on a Surface Pro 4 and\or a Surface Pro 7 and I am getting an ACPI BSOD (BIOS in this system is not fully ACPI compliant. (0x000000A5)) booting the setup, do you have any workarounds or ideas to get the setup to boot?

    Thank you.

    Is BIOS is pure UEFI or is CSM?

    So I think my original issue stemmed from the fact that surface pros didn't support windows 7. I had changes made to your files and make so it would work with the win10pe and it now boots and does the initial install. But..... now i get to the aurora screen and it just restarts. It does this with both normal and debug boot options. If I select safe mode I can see it loading drivers but then it restarts.

    Also I DM you the files 7z I got altered for completions sake

    sysprep.7z and files.7z updated:
    • acpi.sys, intelppm.sys and hal.dll updated also in the %windir%\Driver Cache\amd64 - (added cabarc.exe tool for this):
      Code:
      echo:
      echo Adding files to driver cache, wait...
      echo:
      set mypath="C:\WINDOWS\Driver Cache\amd64"
      mkdir %mypath%\sp2
      mkdir %mypath%\driver
      cabarc x %mypath%\sp2.cab %mypath%\sp2\ >nul
      cabarc x %mypath%\driver.cab %mypath%\driver\ >nul
      del %mypath%\sp2.cab
      del %mypath%\driver.cab
      xcopy WINDOWS\system32\drivers\acpi.sys %mypath%\sp2 /ehciy
      xcopy WINDOWS\system32\hal.dll %mypath%\sp2 /ehciy
      xcopy WINDOWS\system32\drivers\intelppm.sys %mypath%\driver /ehciy
      echo:
      echo Creating new sp2.cab and driver.cab files
      echo Please wait, it will take a few minutes...
      cabarc -m LZX:21 -p -r N %mypath%\sp2.cab %mypath%\sp2\*.* >nul
      cabarc -m LZX:21 -p -r N %mypath%\driver.cab %mypath%\driver\*.* >nul
      rd /s /q %mypath%\sp2
      rd /s /q %mypath%\driver
      
      
    • fixed USB3 drivers in WinPE and WinXP - Dell Wyse 5070 example in XP:
      before.png >>> USB3_fix.png
    • added displaying boot mode BIOS or UEFI on the title bar in the CMD window:
      BIOS.png UEFI.png
    • added CSMWrap and debug version
    • removed some UEFI tools
    P.S. Because I was unable to run the eMMC disk on Dell Wyse 5070, I don't add the ported @George King Generic_SD+MMC_6.2.8056.0 drivers

    We successfully migrated the drivers for Windows 10 KMDF1.15~KMDF1.31 and USB3/4 driver to the Windows 7 system. Maybe can try to make it work on xp.
