Another XPE Blog

  • 아티클

First, a little bit about myself: I joined Microsoft and XP Embedded team about 8 months back. Before coming to Microsoft, I did my Masters in Computer Engineering at University of Southern California and I also worked there as a Systems Analyst for about a year and a half. Even though, I have been in XP Embedded team for a short time, I have worked on several bits and pieces of XPE SP2 and I wanted to share some useful information that I have learned. So, here I am, blogging for the first time, in the hope that someone out there will find this useful.

I will use this blog primarily to talk about common XP Embedded issues raised in newsgroups and also to share news on embedded features and cool devices. I am planning to post articles on how to configure some features offline (Windows Firewall, Dr. Watson, Pop-UP blocking etc.) and tweaking registry settings. Also, whenever possible, I am planning to post some scripts and tools that I am working on. I have written scripts to backup, restore and remove XPE database which can be useful as a starting point for anyone who wants to write his/her own custom database scripts. I have also written tools to diff SLDs and SLXs.

Stay Tuned......

    I am having a great problem in making my xpe image bootable on a cd. I have followed all the instructions on ms website, and still no luck.

    Hmm was wondering if some one can help me and tell me what i am doing wrong.

    I get stuck on the part making a pre fba cd

    when I use the Hd2iso util and burn the pre fba cd.

    I get a error when i try to boot with it

    the error is something like- 1-Hd Halt
    Remove media of disk and press any key to restart.

    Pls can some on tell me where i am going wrong.
    Thanks Nadeem

    Hi Nadeem,

    It seems to me that you are trying to boot from pre-fba CD and hence you are getting the error. Once you deploy XPE image on runtime partition, create pre-FBA CD, put this CD in CD-ROM Drive, go to BIOS and make sure that the first boot device is HD and CD-ROM is not listed as bootable device. You have to boot from your runtime partition and go through FBA. PRE-FBA CD has to be in the drive so that El Torito volume gets detected during FBA. You might also find this useful:

    "I have also written tools to diff SLDs and SLXs."
    Are these tools available publicly yet?

    No, these tools are not available publicly yet. However, I intend to post them in future. I need to work a little bit on them before posting. You can contact me offline at "harshs at microsoft dot com"
