Comment on Windows PE 3.0 and the Missing WMI Class by Daniel

Hey guys, check this note. It solved my problem (Install all five packages, and WMIC working under PE 3.0).
http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/143622-how-to-install-wmic-in-winpe/

Thanks for help guys. I found the issue was you needed more packages installed than just wmi and scripting.
I ended up also install the following packages:
XML
MDAC
HTA

So I basically installed 5 packages into PE (I used PE 2.1)

I doubt all 3 of these were needed, but with them installed wmic works correctly! I’m too lazy to go back right now and figure out which of these 3 packages is actually needed, but I will eventually. But for now, if you install the following 5 packages total under PE2, then wmic.exe will finally work correctly:

wmi
scripting
XML
MDAC
HTA

Thanks for this tips.

After few searches, I installed winpe-wmi_en-us.cab package (with Waik 3.1) to my custom Pe with “dism” command.

I tested Win32_DiskPartition Wmi class with a VB script.
It’s work fine.

Comment on ATI Radeon Causes a UAC Prompt at User Logon by Boyd

Alex, I’d be interested in hearing what the outcome is with your Dell case. As far as I can tell, this is an issue because of ATI’s drivers, but perhaps Dell can persuade them to resolve it.

Your explanation is fantastic and exactly what I needed to prompt Dell to hopefully resolve this issue on their Optiplex 780 drivers.
