What tools are people using these days to integrate drivers intoVista?

null@example.com (Mr.Tom) — Wed, 28 Mar 2012 22:15:14 +0000

Since there's no more builds or support of Vista-Tool, what's a similar easy way to integrate drivers into the Vista install.wim file?

Vista Distribution Folders For Updates

null@example.com (laddanator) — Wed, 26 Oct 2011 20:53:32 +0000

Here is my question, guys. I am trying to install updates VIA distribution style using W.A.I.K and I created the 3 distribution folders fine($OEM$...Out of box drivers and Packages) and imported the updates fine and saved my answer file and it looks like this and is saved as unattend.xml. Everything else works but the updates will not install. Thinking maybe it was because it couldn't find the path of the CD, I have tried %~d0\Packages........no luck so I changed it to .\Packages...............Any help?

Making a stand alone driver disk for Vista

null@example.com (ExTruckie) — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 20:26:43 +0000

Hi All
I have been using DriverPacks for several years to slipstream the drivers for my XP install.
Now I have a need to make a SAD for vista drivers. I am not quite sure how to get it to download the Vista drivers, all I see are the drivers for XP.

Thanks in advance

Stand Alone CD/DVD With Vista Drivers For Use With Windows 7?

null@example.com (Stoner) — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 14:15:58 +0000

Hey guys I have seen that you can make a SAD for Vista and as far as I know this should work for Windows 7? But, for my laptop I have pre SP1 drivers for Vista and drivers which are post SP1 for Vista so I am not sure what to use.

Also could we have a tutorial making for how to make a SAD for Vista which works for Windows 7 please?

Thank you all!

Stoner.

Vista-Tool 2.0 beta 3

null@example.com (muiz) — Wed, 26 Aug 2009 19:23:16 +0000

Vista-Tool 2.0 Beta 3 - 208 kB
MD5:E1AE566072C86A05262D722D1E58C01E
Credits : Jan

And yes after a loooong wait we have a new test version of Vista-Tool 2
Jan is recovered very well, thank god...
And hes bussy writing a new version of Vista-Tool, its not finished yet, but you can already test if you want.

[Windows AIK]

    - This Tool needs Windows AIK for Vista!! (6001.18000.080118-1840), 
      It does not need to be installed, It just needs a copy of it (not the setup).

    - If (WimFltr.sys) is not installed, the Tool can do it for you,
      And it will try to copy (wimgapi.dll) to (system32) if missing. (Administrator?)

    - This Tool has NO support for Windows AIK for Windows7,
      It seems that WAIK-7 works poorly with Vista Images and some functions don't work at all.
      You can have WAIK-7 installed, sinds this tool only needs a copy of WAIK-Vista.


[ChangeLog]
    
    - use of background workers (gui response)
    - all subimages can be done at the same time
    - extra functions like 'recompress, cleanup and delete'
    - tooltips with xml data from image
    - folders can have whitespaces now
    - isobuilder can build iso's larger than 4Gb
    - no more black cmd boxes, output goes to log file now
    - process can be canceled, it will finish current process first
    - program runs on windows 64bit
    - program supports 64bit images


[Some Tips]

    - Don't use a Windows Temp folder for this Tool's Temp Folder.
    - Make sure the Temp folder is large enough.
    - Make sure the temp folder stays closed while using the tool.
    - Your Mount folder needs to be empty.
    - The Tools needs write access to all the folders in the SetupList.
    - And write access to this Tools folder.

A way to make an .ISO out of a .VHD

null@example.com (muiz) — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 16:55:45 +0000

The way in this guide can only be done from Windows 7 !
And you need to have WAIK installed.

And yes there are more ways to do this.

First unpack a version from before the build you have as .VHD
(In this guide i will take build 7229 as an example)
to a folder.

Then go to the "control panel admin tools" :

There you go to : "Computer Management"

There you right click on : "Disk Management" and choose : "Attach VHD"

Then browse to your ".VHD" file.

And click "OK"

Then there will be added a "Virtual Drive"
In this example it is drive "J"
The drive icon collor is blue.

Now open a "WAIK command prompt"
(there is a shortcut for that in your start menu)
In there paste this line :

imagex /compress maximum /flags "Ultimate" /capture j: c:\install.wim "Windows 7 Ultimate"

/capture j: (put your own drive letter there i used J: as an example)

Wait till its finished.
In this example it will place the new "install.wim" into "C:\"
Now copy the new "install.wim" into the folder where you extracted the build 7229 iso.
In the "Sources" folder

And overwrite the "install.wim" file.
Now open the build 7229 original ISO with a program like "UltraISO" and make a new iso from the folder where 7229 is extracted and the new "install.wim" is placed.
After that you can mount or burn it and run the setup.

Sad news about Vista-Tool 2.0

null@example.com (muiz) — Sat, 13 Jun 2009 02:26:27 +0000

Today i spoke to Jan who also made 1.0
He told me he decided to quit the development of Vista-Tool 2.0
He is working on a tool for Windows 7 instead.

I hope he will change his mind, or give us the source, so one of us can finish it.

Al i have is an Alpha build , i will post it here , but remember that no support can be given on this.
And remember to Copy expand.exe to : C:\Program Files\Windows AIK\Tools\Servicing

expand.exe is included in the tools folder

http://rapidshare.com/files/243931605/V … _Alpha.rar (Will upload this to the FTP later)

[SOLVED] Question about the extras in Vista Ultimate

null@example.com (gabo03) — Thu, 28 May 2009 00:25:17 +0000

Everything is good so far doing my Vista Ultimate with all the driver packs and hotfixes.

But now i wonder about the EXTRAS folder.

I download some extras from RyanVM forum, but i dont know how to integrate in my Vista.

Just decompress the files in the EXTRAS folders or i need to do something else??

Thanks

Trouble Integrating Drivers With Vista Tool

null@example.com (barn619) — Thu, 14 May 2009 20:05:11 +0000

Hi,

I'm new at this and unable to integrate drivers using Vista-Tool for a Vista32 disk and would appreciate any advice. I'm sure I'm probably just missing something simple.

* The system that I have Vista-Tools, WAIK and vLite on is running Server2003 x32.
* Running Vista Tools from C:\Vista-Tools
* WAIK is installed in the default location: C:\Program Files\Windows AIK
* Vista Version: Vista32 Enterprise (so I do not need any x64 drivers
* Trying to integrate the storage, chipset and network driverpacks (
* Integrating the Hotfixes worked successfully

Steps:

* Created AutoUnattend file with WAIK
* Slipstreamed Vista SP1 into source files with VLite
* Copied source files to C:\Vista-Tools\VistaSource
* In Vista-Tools selected image 1 (is that the right image for Vista32 Enterprise?). 
* Chose mount-RW and Integrate Drivers.

Do I need to edit the Drivers.xml file before trying the integration?

Is this line at the bottom of Drivers.xml correct?

cpi:offlineImage cpi:source="wim:i:/vistaaio/distribucion/sources/install.wim#Windows Vista BUSINESS (64bit)" xmlns:cpi="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:cpi" />

I do not recognize the offline image source path:

("wim:i:/vistaaio/distribucion/sources/install.wim) and I am using Vista32 Enterprise, not Vista Business (64bit)

My install.wim file is located in

C:\Vista-Tools\VistaSource\sources

How do I upload screenshots?

Thanks so much!

Vista tool guide

null@example.com (muiz) — Wed, 06 May 2009 20:38:00 +0000

Vista-Tool Guide.

Things you need :
*A Vista DVD or ISO
(Its recommended to use a Vista source that already has SP1 in it, saves you lots of time.
otherwise you will have to integrate SP1 first. Make sure you use a clean source nothing edited yet.
So i skip that part.)
*a drive or a partition with lots of space
*The slipstream tool , Vista-Tool or Vlite
*Hotfix Packs
*Driver Packs
*Windows System Image Manager (WAIK)

Unpack your Vista DVD or ISO to a folder.
Examples : D:\Vistax64 or D:\Vistax86
The hotfixes to : D:\Vistawork\Hotfixesx64 or D:\Hotfixesx86
And the drivers : D:\Vistawork\Drivers64 or D:\Vistawork\Drivers86
Your tools etc. D:\Vistawork\Tools
Mount folder D:\Vistawork\Mount
Folders :

Vista DVD folder :

Remove the files marked on this screenshot, they are not needed.

In there you will see a folder called "Sources"
Remove everything inside, exept "boot.wim" & "install.wim"
Source folder:

The Vista source will get bigger after slipstreaming, so its recomended to use only one version of Vista.
In this guide i will do "Vista Ultimate"
To make your Vista DVD a "Ultimate" only can be done on a few ways.
But i will discuss the easiest one for now.
And that is with "Vlite"
First install WAIK :

-Windows Automated Installation Kit (AIK) for Vista Sp1 & Windows Server 2008- 1202,09 MB

And Vista-Tool 1.0:

Download : Vista-Tool 1.0- 84,8 kB
Credits : Jan

Install the latest "Vlite" from: http://www.vlite.net/download.html

Then open "Vlite"and browse to your VistaDVD folder.
Example : D:\Vistawork\Vistax64 or D:\Vistawork\Vistax86
It will ask wich vista version you want to open, for this example we choose "Windows Vista Ultimate"

Then only mark : "Tweaks" and hit "Aply".

You can set some tweaks here, but its not needed if you dont want to.

And choose : "Rebuild one "Ultimate" and click "OK"

It will take a while......
After that you have a Vista Source (install.wim) that contains only "Ultimate"

Unpack all "Hotfix packs" to your "Hotfix folder" , so you will get one folder with all hotfixes in it.
Hotfix folder:

And your drivers to one folder but keeping each driverpack folder, so you get one folder wich contains the Audio , Lan, chipset etc. folder.
Driver folder:

Now its time to start "Vista-Tool"
I know it can be done with "Vlite" to, but doesnt work very well with drivers etc.
So i recommend "Vista-Tool" to do this job.
After starting "Vista-Tool" browse to your Vista source folder in the tool.
Your "Mount" folder (has to be empty)
Your driver folder.
And the folder for the ISO (Only works if the "install.wim" is smaller then 4gb, more about that later.)
Now select in "Vista-Tool" image "1" , cause we have only "Ultimate" so it contains only one image.
Leave the integrate setting the way it is.

Since most people here have more then 4gb ram, i will only do x64 in this guide.
There are a few limitations in "Vista-tool 1.0" with x64 drivers.(Will be fixed in next version.)
Go to the"VISTA-TOOLS\Bin" folder and open the "Drivers.xml" with wordpad.
There is 2x "DriverPaths>

"
In the second one fill in the path to your "x64 driver folder"
Example : "DriverPaths>

D:\Vistawork\Drivers64
"

And save the file.

Now put a mark in : "Mount-RW" and hit start.

When you go to your "Mount" Folder now you will see that it contains Vista now.

At this point you can add or remove things in there , for example put Prime95 etc. in the desktop folder in your "Mount folder"
Just browse in your mount folder to: "D:\vistawork\MOUNT\Users\Administrator\Desktop"
Its also possible to let things install etc, but thats another guide.
Now put a mark in "Integrate Hotfix" and hit start.

You will see several command screens like this :

This will take some time!!
After it is finished and your sure no errors occured, you can mark : "Unmount-Commit" and hit "START" to save your image.

In case something goes wrong you can mark : "Unmount-Dispose" , Carefull, this will undo all things you just slipstreamed or changed!!!
When everything went fine you have yourself an updated Vista source.
Now you can if needed or wanted , open this source again with : "Vlite" and remove some stuff that is not realy needed , like: Languages, Picture samples etc.
Dont remove things if you are planning to install SP2 later.
So becarefull with removing stuff, better first go to the Vlite forum for that!!!
Cause this is NOT a "Vista LITE" guide i will not go into this.
Now open a working bootable Vista ISO on your pc , in this case the x64 version.

With a tool like "UltraIso"
Remove all the vista dvd files you see there.

And browse to your VistaDVD source folder and fill it up with that.

Now go to file, and do : "Save as"

Now you have a up to date bootable ISO.
Save that ISO to another location.
Now we go integrate the drivers.
Start "Vista-Tool" again and mark "Mount-RW" and hit start.

Then mark : "Integrate-Drivers" and hit "START" again.

This will take a while.
After it says its done go to the "VISTA-TOOLS" folder and open : "Driverlog.txt"
Scroll down to the bottom of this it wil, say something like this :
"SUCCESS:Successfully marked devices for reinstall! (Error code (HRESULT) 0x0.)
2009-05-04 14:44:15, Info CBS Pkgmgr: Install Drivers Offline Callback: INFO: Installed '274' drivers. (Error code (HRESULT) 0x0.)
2009-05-04 14:44:15, Info CBS Pkgmgr: Install Drivers Offline Callback: INFO: RETURN InstallDriversOffline (0) (Error code (HRESULT) 0x0.)
2009-05-04 14:44:15, Info CBS Pkgmgr: return code: 0x0
2009-05-04 14:44:15, Info CBS Pkgmgr: return code: 0x0"
If not , you did something wrong.
If it went ok, mark "Unmount-Commit" and hit "START"

Again this will take a while.
Now make an iso out of it with a tool like "UltraIso" and your done.
The version without drivers can be used if there are coming out some new drivers ,or you want more versions with different driver versions.
This way you will always have a driver free version to slipstream drivers in it.
Remember you will have to use "WHQL" drivers , or you will get popups during the Vista setup about the unsigned drivers.
But thats up to you.
You also can make it unattended with "Vlite" ,so you dont have to do anything and the setup does all the work for you.
This is the basic guide, and maybe i forgot a few things, im sorry about that and will fix if needed.

The Hotfix packs and Tools : http://www.ryanvm.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6228

The driverpacks : http://forum.driverpacks.net

I hope i helped a few with this.

Help Please make a noob guide. or se my noob guide and help me correct

null@example.com (thxman) — Tue, 28 Apr 2009 16:06:16 +0000

Hi i have try to make a Image with vista-tool, but cant get the driver itergration to work. Have read all post in this forum. looks like i am allmost there i think, please help me, if someone can see whats wrong

dont really know what to do first. i seems i have to start with WIAK a make a WIM image dont really know how to make one.

and it seems like i am missing a component from WIAK, this one PnpCustomizationsNonWinPE" processorArchitecture="x86
i have the X64 in WIAK but not X86 why i dont know.

se my driver.xml

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



    
        
            
                
                    I:\driversx64

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

really Need a step by step guide please
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Running it from Vista 64bit Ultimate
this i how i did, i copy my vista DVD to harddriver and start WIAK and open sources\install.wim

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

then i took a tool in WIAK for driver path se piture

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

then i want to slipstream x64 drivers , i read i have to add the path to your x64 driver folder in the "DRIVERS.XML"
i used WIAK for that se piture link

And Make sure Vista-tools is located on your system drive root, eg "C:\vista-tools". And also make sure to have WAIK installed as well, or else it wont work.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

and after WIAK i think i have to use Vista-tool, can anyone see if all is set right.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My drivers folder looks like this, i read that there must not be space in between lettes, i unpacked driverpacks X64 with Winrar some sound driver + vga driver. see picture

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

my hotfix folder see picture

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

then i start Vista tool and this is how it looks

it seems that hotfixes works fine with intergration by Vista-tool

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i think that is it, and then i burn the ISO on to DVDR

and yes the driver intergration dont work see my log file for vista-tool
