Win7PE with Vista loading bar ? External links Options

[giorgosg]

hello to all,
i recently deployed my pe on windows 7, with waik 3.
the problem is when i boot it from pxe tftp server, it shows vista loading bar and not the windows 7 animated logo "starting windows".
any ideas for this?
is it a problem of the wim or of boot files (boot.sdi pxeboot.n12 etc.. ) ?

Hello

First can I assume that you are using Multi 7 PE..

Multi 7PE can be built using either a Vista or Win7 source,

In Winbuilder make sure your source directory is correct.

I have built Multi 7PE’s using either Vista or Win 7 source files.

So far most app or scripts work with either build all you have to do is change sources

I have not tried this with WinRescuePE

yes,
the first question:
exactly which project do you use?

first
at the postconfig.script don't use the script line:
bcdedit.exe /store %TargetDir%\boot\bcd /set {default} quietboot on

second
copy %BootSRC%\Windows\system32\%DistLang%\bootres.dll.mui
to %TargetDir%\Windows\system32\en-us\bootres.dll.mui

End

thanks for your answers.
i was finally told by msdn partners that the reason of not showing logo, is the pxe boot.
i tried remaking the pe to a usb stick, i booted from there and the logo showed up correctly.
weird eh?

for me via Tftpd32 the win7 boot logo showed up correctly
building with the Win7RescuePE project, the source is 7600.16385 en-us DVD

strange dera, but thanks for this!
the good news is that its not a big problem for me, the bad is i have to give a deep search for it

Support for different languages is sadly very bad in Vista/Seven project's.

I your case there is maybe only in Boot\BCD the wrong language defined.

If you not familiar with bcdedit commandline use jianliulin BCD Editor and check if your laguage is choosen.

Hi,

thanx 4 the answer! Though my comment was morelikely meant as a hint for the problem of giorgosg...
Nevertheless I tried it and finally think I can say that @ least in my case I did not copy all the files that r on cd to my stick:
like in the boot folder the language folders and the fonts folder....
I'm quite sure it was the missing fonts folder!

Interestingly I also tried other wims - one is from the orig MS recovery console - it looks like it wants to show the animated boot logo but then immediatly switches to the vista style load bar...

Whatever, hope this may help a little bit!

Cheers,

Steph
