Some Russian guy has produced a winbuilder project for VistaPE:

It at least produces an iso - you need to copy imagex from windows aik to winbuilder tools directory - to get it to build. For me the iso bsod's when booting via VMWare.

These are good news to hear, wasn't MS talking something about virtual PC 2007 with supports Vista virtualization some time ago?

Q. What is the difference between VPC 2004 and VPC 2007?
A.

VPC 2007 includes the following new features

• Support for Windows Vista as a host

• Support for Windows Vista as a guest

• Support for Windows Vista 64-bit as a host

• Improved performance compared to Virtual PC 2004

Perhaps this affects vmware as well?

Can you also try on real hardware?

What error do you have? Do you use latest vmware (5.5.3)? .... Vmware working not very good with vista, try use virtual pc or real hardware

Hi Man,

Congratulation
It does work beautifully for me.
116m iso, I did not change anything and one thing I don't understand Russian
Nice work, pretty scene.
I'll try to edit something, OK?

Thanks for your time and try.

select "bs explorer" and unselect "Russian interface" and you will be have english interface ...

It's very good idea. Do you send any changes to me?

Thanks for your time and try.

Welcome to the forum NightMan. Good project you have going.

ALL
I create small english version, you can download it here
readme.txt:

It's small ENGLISH version of VistaPE.

1. Select Microsoft Windows Vista DVD as source
2. Copy Total Commander to "Pojects\VistaPE\App\File Tools\TC"
and select TC script (recommend)
3. Do not try boot iso in VMWare - it's not working for all, try VirtualPC or
real hardware
4. If you need mount any WIM files (install.wim for example), you need install
wimfltr.inf from Tools folder
5. Booting is not fast - wpeinit take 1-2 minute for initializing hardware,
network and etc.

Yes. I was a Vista beta tester - I have been installing and running versions of Vista for months including the RTM version on the same hardware. I will try will your full download and see if that makes any difference.

Your full download works ok on VMWare workstation 5.5.3
