Windows Bootable Cd Image

Posted on  by

Sep 21, 2012  I downloaded a DVD image for Windows 7, I used Roxio to create a DVD, all completed and I can read the DVD on several computers but it just won't boot on any computer. I tried both +r and -r DVD. I also used Windows Disk Image Burner and Power2Go, none of these programs worked. Any advice would. Windows Disk Image Burner is a good program. Apr 25, 2018  This method is applicable in Windows 7/8/10 and it can be used only if the bootable operating system is in the form of ISO image file. Note: If you want to use an ISO burner tool then skip to the method #2. Insert an empty writable CD/DVD into the disc drive of your computer and wait for the system to recognize the disc automatically.

The Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit (ADK) includes the CopyPE and MakeWinPEMedia command line utilities. When run from the Deployment and Imaging Tools Environment, CopyPE creates a working set of WinPE files, that MakeWinPEMedia can use to create bootable WinPE media. MakeWinPEMedia can create bootable WinPE USB drives, virtual hard disks, or ISOs that allow you to boot a VHD or burn to a DVD or CD.

CopyPE and MakeWinPEMedia are installed when you choose the Deployment tools and Windows Preinstallation Environment options when installing the ADK. If you're using the ADK for Windows 10, version 1809, Windows PE is a separate add-on that you download and install after you install the ADK. You can download the WinPE add-on from the Download Center.

Step 1: Create working files

No matter what type of media you're going to create, the first thing to do is create a working set of WinPE files on your technician PC.

  1. Start the Deployment and Imaging Tools Environment as an administrator.

  2. Run copype to create a working copy of the Windows PE files. For more information about copype, see Copype command line options.

Step 2: Customize WinPE (Usually not needed)

Note, when you add more packages to WinPE, it slows WinPE performance and boot time. Only add additional packages when necessary.

Common customizations

  • Add an update. If you're going to be capturing an FFU at the end of the lab, apply KB4048955 to your WinPE image. To learn more, see: WinPE: mount and customize.

  • Add a video or network driver. (WinPE includes generic video and network drivers, but in some cases, additional drivers are needed to show the screen or connect to the network.). To learn more, see WinPE: Add drivers.

  • Add PowerShell scripting support. To learn more, see WinPE: Adding Windows PowerShell support to Windows PE. PowerShell scripts are not included in this lab.

  • Set the power scheme to high-performance. Speeds deployment. Note, our sample deployment scripts already set this scheme automatically. See WinPE: Mount and Customize: High Performance.

  • Optimize WinPE: Recommended for devices with limited RAM and storage (for example, 1GB RAM/16GB storage). After you add drivers or other customizations to Windows PE, see WinPE: Optimize and shrink the image to help reduce the boot time.

Step 3: Create bootable media

Now that you now have a set of working files, you can use MakeWinPEMedia to build bootable WinPE media.

Create a bootable WinPE USB drive

  1. Attach a USB drive to your technician PC.

  2. Start the Deployment and Imaging Tools Environment as an administrator.

  3. OptionalYou can format your USB key prior to running MakeWinPEMedia. MakeWinPEMedia will format your WinPE drive as FAT32. If you want to be able to store files larger than 4GB on your WinPE USB drive, you can create a multipartition USB drive that has an additional partition formatted as NTFS. See Create a multipartition USB drive for instructions.

  4. Use MakeWinPEMedia with the /UFD option to format and install Windows PE to the USB flash drive, specifying the USB key's drive letter:

    See MakeWinPEMedia command line options for all available options.

The bootable WinPE USB drive is ready. You can use it to boot a PC into WinPE.

Create a WinPE ISO, DVD, or CD

  1. Use MakeWinPEMedia with the /ISO option to create an ISO file containing the Windows PE files:

  2. Optional Burn a DVD or CD: In Windows Explorer, right-click the ISO file, and select Burn disc image > Burn, and follow the prompts.

Create a WinPE VHD to use with Hyper-V

Even though you can create a bootable When running Windows PE in Hyper-V, consider using an ISO file format instead of a VHD, to enable quick setup of the virtual PC.

To install Windows PE to a VHD:

  1. Create a virtual hard drive (.vhdx):

  2. Prepare the drive by using MakeWinPEMedia:

  3. Detach the drive:

Troubleshooting

  1. If Windows PE doesn't appear, try the following workarounds, rebooting the PC each time:

    • To boot a PC that supports UEFI mode: In the firmware boot menus, try manually selecting the boot files: EFIBOOTBOOTX64.EFI.

    • If your PC requires storage or video drivers to boot, try adding those same drivers to the Windows PE image. For more information, see WinPE: Mount and Customize.
