Windows 7

If you'd like to add more languages or all languages to your Windows 7 deployment image this can be done by hand or with below script. This script requires some path configurations only and integrates all lp.cab files from the Microsoft Language Pack DVD.

Required:

• Windows Automated Installation Kit (AIK)
• Microsoft Windows 7 Enterprise DVD
• Microsoft Windows 7 Language Pack DVD

Steps:

1. Copy install.wim from Windows 7 DVD \sources\install.wim to local disk
2. Configure path to language packs. This is folder named langpacks with subfolders named "ar-sa", "de-de" and so on.
3. Configure all other paths
4. Run the batch file to integrate all Language Packs (may take some hours/one day).
5. Add this WMI file to your Windows Deployment Server (WDS).

Script:

If you's like to install software via Active Directory it may fail with Error: %%1274.

Symtoms:

• You can reboot as often as you'd like and your deployed Software always fails with Error %%1274
• Eventlog entry:
  • Source: Application Management Group Policy
  • Event ID 101
  • Description: Die Zuweisung der Anwendung ShoreTel Communicator 16.23.5631.0 der Richtlinie ShoreTel Communicator ist fehlgeschlagen. Fehler: %%1274
  • Description: The assignment of application ShoreTel Communicator 16.23.5631.0 from policy ShoreTel Communicator failed. The error was : %%1274

Workaround:

• Explicitly set the policy Startup policy processing wait time: Activated Amount of time to wait (in seconds): 120s. This is normally not required if FastLogonOptimization is disabled, but Windows 7 seems to have a bug here.
