Windows PE Questions

[Guest_aCaRo]

Hello to all!!!!!!

i would like to know, what is this disc exactly. I have done the disc, but after run it i only see a desktop (with the great nu2 logo) and a command line. Which commands can i run from it? (not all of course) i am interested to know how usefull can it be for me (or for us).
Some examples can help me to undestand that.

thanks a lot!!!!!!!!!!!!!

try this web site out:

http://www.microsoft.com/LICENSING/program...a/sam/winPe.asp

for the most part it is there just to help in starting an installation of an OS. I found it not to be worth.

if you are looking for a bootable cd that will help in recoverying a broken system, look into ERD commander 2002, i found this one to be a great help.


Have fun,

Windows PE or \"Windows Preinstallation Environment\" is meant to be a deployment tool. It is meant to replace a 20 year old 16bit DOS environment with a newer 32bit or 64bit kernel based on WinXP or Win2k3 Server.

It's more than a deployment tool.  By simply booting into windows PE from CD, you have full network access, you have access to the system, you can make a new boot.ini, you can format and repartition (even using a script), you can run most 32 bit programs such as disk probe, or drive image.  Below is a list of the default commands you can run on winpe:

Regedit, Notepad, Attrib, XCopy, Taskmgr, Expand, format.  Use diskpart to repartion.

Thanks for your help!!!!!!

I can only run programs from the command line, isn't it??

You say that with WinPE i have network, but can i try FTP or browse the web? if this is possible wich programs can i use to do it? I suppose that they will have to be executed directly (without installation) from a folder of WinPE CD. I'm interested that with this CD i can work in a computer like in another one, without install any OS (only run WinPE).

An another question:
if i want to configure the network interface in WinPE with this:
IP: 192.168.0.1
MASK: 255.255.255.0
GATEWAY: 192.168.0.254
DNS1:111.222.333
DNS2:444.555.666

wich command i must to run???

I know that this post will be very difficult to undestand (sorry for my english, i'm spanish) but a lot of thanks for reading (you are really teach me a lot).

THANKS A LOT!!!!!!!!!!

Perhaps if you're asking that question then Windows let alone WindowsPE isn't for you!

It's a GUI, point and click!
