Can't install unattended

XC*LUSiVE · February 3, 2012

Hi,

I'm having a problem with Autounattend.xml. When I apply with W7T (quick or full, doesn't matter). I got "Device driver not found" error at setup and it asks me to find drivers. I also integrated "MassStorage DP_x86", so I can't still find the problem. Without Autounattend.xml, I don't have any problems at install.

How can I solve this problem?

Thanks

Maybe we can have a look at your Autounattend.xml ... :shifty:

XC*LUSiVE · February 4, 2012

Sure...

Autounattend.xml

OK, there is quite a difference between your Autounattend.xml and one generated from "Unattended Creator" in v.1.3.0.98.

First of all, please delete your key from the Autounattend.xml !

Try this Autounattend.xml, import it within "Unattended Creator" in v.1.3.0.98 and place your key in it.

Then save the file and test it again.

@XC*LUSiVE

I'm guessing you have used 7Customizer to create your Autounattend.xml file.

You can change inside Autounattend.xml file:


<unattend xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:unattend">
<settings pass="windowsPE">
  <component name="Microsoft-Windows-International-Core-WinPE" processorArchitecture="x86" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="NonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
   <SystemLocale>tr-TR</SystemLocale>
   <UserLocale>tr-TR</UserLocale>
   <UILanguage>tr-TR</UILanguage>
   <InputLocale>041f:0000041f</InputLocale>
  </component>

And also:


<settings pass="specialize">
  <component name="Microsoft-Windows-Shell-Setup" processorArchitecture="x86" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="NonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
   <AutoLogon>
	<Enabled>true</Enabled>
	<Username>XCLUSiVE7</Username>
	<Password>
	   <PlainText>true</PlainText>
	   <Value></Value>
		   </Password>
	<LogonCount>9999999</LogonCount>
   </AutoLogon>
   <TimeZone>GTB Standard Time</TimeZone>
   <ComputerName>EXC7-PC</ComputerName>
  </component>

And if you change the "Folder_Location" you need to change the path for the last line or remove this one:


<cpi:offlineImage cpi:source="wim:E:/7Work/DVD/sources/install.wim#Windows 7 Ultimate" xmlns:cpi="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:cpi" />

And you can check your Autounattend.xml file with WSIM and valdate it. You need first to install WAIK 3.0 for Windows 7, and WSIM is include inside.

I hope that can help you!

Yeah, You're right. I used 7customizer. It has been working on my old work (win7 sp0).

My current work is for captured wim. Are there any problems for captured wim files?

No!

I think the problem is with the last line inside your Autounattend.xml file.

Try to remove the last line and save your file (or change the path for install.wim)!

You can check also the <Value /> (error) for password on my post above.

Thanks to let us know the result.

This is the simpliest one, but it still doesn't work! I'm going to be crazy!

You are testing on a Virtual Machine ?

How do you have integrated SP1? Using sysprep ?

Try to create your ISO file with your Autounattend.xml file at the root of your distribution folder , without using W7T and let us know.

Thanks

I downloaded the ISO from MSDN, so it has already had SP1. I used sysprep for other things. I tried without W7T. Same problem

Strange! Without using Autounattend.xml file works for you, but not with Autounattend.xml file, right?

Unfortunately, right...

myselfidem · February 5, 2012

OK!

I haven't this problem with my install.wim SP1 customized and captured using sysprep, and with my clean MSDN SP1!

Maybe you can try to use your clean MSDN Windows 7 SP1 with your Autounattend.xml file only!

And how do you create your iso file with a batch file ?

Thanks to let us know!

I create my ISO file by W7T.

I started to rebulid my work. I'll keep the old one...

However,

I have already encountered this problem, and I think when the iso is created some programs are working on background ,like Antivirus and an error occurs during the silent installation!

I'm using Windows Developer Preview. It has Windows Defender (bulit-in MSE). I haven't installed other security softwares. WD doesn't snoop.

There is something wrong inside your customized image !

You have used 7Customizer and after W7T.

Try to use, like I said, an original Windows 7 SP1 with your Autounattend.xml file!

I used 7customizer for only autounattend.xml. I used it before, and I hadn't had any problem.

Do the same with your SP1!

And you can use W7T with a clean Windows 7 SP1. It's better do not use two programs to customize your image!

I want it too, but the xml file which is generated by W7T doesn't skip the language choice, wellcome part and select image part at setup. Therefore, I used 7customizer. Generating autounattend.xml isn't a customization for wim image.

You can find help watching this video to create your own Autounattend.xml file:

I think you made something wrong using sysprep !

Maybe the compression isn't the same when you have captured the image , or other...?

nice_guy75 · February 8, 2012

I hope you have not messed with setup.exe of Sources folder if you did, you better replace that exe with the original one. I am sure your problem would be solved.

I have also faced similar problem and solved by not touching the setup.exe of Sources folder.
