is this an iis problem or a new problem ? if new, then start a new topic

that is normal. continue with the instructions.

if i get time in the near future i'll do it but for now i'm too busy, in the mean time read this > http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb680838.aspx cheers anyweb

please read this post then

have you verified that IIS is indeed running by opening a web browser and going to http://localhost

what Operating system are you installing this on ?

ok read this first then checkout the Windows SIM section right here on windows-noob.com

you'll have to mount the WIM file using imageX and add them, then unmount it. cheers anyweb

Will there be a specific windows 7 SKU tailor-made for netbooks, or not? Until recently, that seemed very likely, but as time went on, the answer to that question got muddy again. During the past few weeks, Microsoft has been very adamant to reiterate that all Windows 7 SKUs can run on netbooks, and that it will enable customers to upgrade to higher SKUs easily. Recent comment by Steve Ballmer, however, indicate that Microsoft is still thinking about a specific netbook edition. more >> http://osnews.com/story/21105/Microsoft_St...s_7_Netbook_SKU

so what was the solution then in case others might have a similar problem ?

here you go http://www.windows-noob.com/downloads/BDD2007_x86.msi good luck with the exam cheers anyweb

first of all please understand that the BDD msi is out of date as it's been replaced by MDT (Microsoft Deployment Toolkit), essentially it's the same thing just with a different name however i do have a copy of BDD which i used for all the howto's here, if you still want it then let me know cheers anyweb

in order to troubleshoot your problem i need more info about what you've done and how your network is setup etc..

you can use sccm to create bootable cds, usb keys, dvds so no need for pxe at all the following post will show you how to create one from start to finish cheers anyweb

excellent edit and THANKS for the info, !!

did you name it System Managment or System Management ?

Details are scarce at the moment, but testers familiar with the recently leaked Windows 7 build 7048 confirm that Internet Explorer 8 is now an optional component in Windows 7. This is most likely a direct consequence of the EU investigation into the bundling of IE. Still, a few questions remain. more >> http://osnews.com/story/21079/Microsoft_Ma...al_in_Windows_7

do you want the program to install itself without asking the user ? have you tried removing every check mark from the interaction step ? cheers anyweb

youll need to create a new program for your current applications package, the new program should contain the uninstall string necessary to remove the software, then target the users with that software cheers anyweb

Based on all the user feedback ignited by the Windows 7 beta, Microsoft has made a set of tweaks to the release candidate of Windows 7. The Engineering 7 weblog details 36 of those tweaks, in quite some detail actually. Let's take a look at some interesting ones. The Aero Peek feature has been received quite positively, as it really can be quite useful when working with lots and lots of windows. It reminds me a lot of Expose - not in how it works, but in how useful it is. When I first heard about Expose, my reaction was "meh". It felt like useless eye candy for Apple Store owners. However, as soon as you started using Expose, it became clear it's a massively useful feature, and I still consider it one of the best additions to window management since, like, forever. Aero Peek falls in the same category: looks gimmicky at first, but once you're used to it, you don't want to live without it. In the RC a much-requested addition has been made: Aero Peek can now also be triggered by the alt+tab switcher. Another addition that really makes me happy (and I'm sure lots of other users as well), is the ability to drag/drop a file on a task bar item and have it open the dropped file in the program you dropped it on. For instance, if you have Notepad pinned to your taskbar, and you drop a html file on it, it will open that file in Notepad. This behaviour is not default, however; you need to press shift as a modifier. Still, a very welcome addition, as it allows for an easy way to open fiels with non-default applications. full story > http://www.osnews.com/story/21050/Microsof...s_7_Beta_and_RC
