Hello everyone, I'm Jeff, a lowly pc repair from Canada.

I registered just to post this question, but i have enjoyed winbuilder for a long while and use it to make all me repair tools (i am an under-paid retail service tech at a cell phone/computer/video game sales/service shop in Canada). I mostly have used Win7PE SE and newer (mostly win10XPE and Win10PE SE). But recently we started having some (MANY!) older systems come in (older = 1999ish to 2004ish) and Win10 PE's just would not load, or if they did were unusable.

Long story short, i found gena, and i thought well we better build a really good, like the best i possible can for our pc repair shop needs, windows xp/2003 era PE1 iso/wim/bcd.

I just want to build a PE based off 32 bit (x86) Windows 2003 server enterprise SP1 using wim packaging/booting but i cant find the required files for wim to work!

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE POST FILES IN A ZIP OR LINK TO DL???
thanks so much

You can use GetWaiktools to download the needed files.

GWT -xpramboot -xpwimboot

i used the "GetWaiktools" but it downloaded files, but i dont see all the needed files. Can you explain in detail where i source them from? i really need under 10 small files, so any exact directions would really help. Better yet a smakk zip file on megadrive or dropbox with needed files in a zip would save my mind. Please i really need help here, who would think an xp/2003 pe would cause me such a pain.

ok i figured it out, the command line just opened the program, so i played with switched to see differences. One of them, "allextras" i think, only checked the bottom most box and nothing else, i thought that would give no files to download. But i ran it anyways and boom! the files i needed did indeed download.

Thanks alot, i hope anyone else with this issue finds this post.
