ElmerBeFuddled Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 (edited) Hi All, Have a minor issue with my autounattend.xml file in as far as I don't get to see the Install Windows 7 Now screen with the repair option towards the bottom left corner. All I do get is which disk to install it to. I even disable that when running a test in VBox. I didn't realise until the other day when I could have done with doing a repair install that I didn't have that option (got round it by renaming the autounattend file on my usb).Could someone pass an eye over my autounattend file and tell me which 'string' I need to disable? B.T.W. the autounattend file has been validated with WSIM, just hope someone can help save me some time by not having to do a trial and error method of finding what I need to disable/remove.<?xml

ianymaty Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 It's a wild guess of me. Thinking the line 26 should be true. Waiting a confirmation from people who know better. Quote

Waiting a confirmation from people who know better.That's a better wild guess than any I have! I'll give it a spin in VBox! Here I go. Wish me luck. I may be gone a while......

bphlpt Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 When you get a chance, please post the file that ends up working for you. Cheers and Regards Quote
ElmerBeFuddled Posted August 29, 2013 Author Posted August 29, 2013 That didn't seem to do the trick. I'm going to try it out on a virgin (key inserted only) iso, it may yet be something I've ripped out with WinToolKit! I'll report back! Quote
ElmerBeFuddled Posted August 30, 2013 Author Posted August 30, 2013 (edited) Well. I must've spent the best part of 8 hours (on and off) today swapping odds n sods out of the autounattend.xml file. The only thing I have learnt is that my head hurts!! But there is good news! Took my 15 year old (1998) Mark 3 VW Polo for its annual MOT (road worthiness) test/certificate today, and it sailed through! All I'd done in the last 12 months (yesterday at that) was buy two new tyres for the front. My head is now hurting and more than slightly hazy as the "possible car repair money" got spent on a few celebratory beers! I think I'll give up trying to figure this issue out, for now. I'll just make sure I always have a repair disc to hand. Trouble is, I hate being defeated, so I know it won't go away!! Edited August 30, 2013 by ElmerBeFuddled Quote
