Additional Resources
In addition to the tools available in Windows AIK, Microsoft provides additional tools and resources to help facilitate Windows deployment. Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=126933 ) MDT unifies the tools and processes required for desktop and server deployment into a common deployment console and collection of guidance. The MDT tools and end-to-end guidance help reduce deployment time, standardize desktop and server images, limit service disruptions, reduce post-deployment help desk costs, and improve security and ongoing configuration management. Microsoft Assessment and Planning Toolkit (MAP) (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=132138) MAP is a tool that enables you to assess your current IT infrastructure for a variety of technology-migration projects. It includes the features previously provided with Windows Vista Hardware Assessment Solution Accelerator. Microsoft Application Compatibility Toolkit (ACT) (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=82101) ACT contains the necessary tools and documentation to evaluate and mitigate application compatibility issues before deploying a new version of Windows, a Windows update, or a new version of Windows Internet Explorer in your environment.
The number in the Version registry value is 3.1 to reflect the new Windows PE version. The Windows PE 3.1 base image contains Remote Network Driver Interface Specification (RNDIS) binaries. These binaries are also available for Windows PE 3.0 as a hotfix. For more information, see Knowledge Base Article ID: 979265 (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=206678). Windows PE 3.1 includes 802.1x binaries as an optional component. The file name of this package is WinPE-Dot3Svc.cab. This optional component is also available for Windows PE 3.0 as a hotfix. For more information, see Knowledge Base Article ID 972831(http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=206072). The Windows PE 3.1 base image contains fixes that are related to 4k/512e drive support. These fixes are also available for Windows PE 3.0 as a hotfix. For more information, see Knowledge Base Article ID: 982018 (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=206679). Windows PE 3.1 includes bug fixes that are related to the Windows PE version that is included with Windows 7 SP1.
To install the Windows PE 3.1 Windows AIK supplement, follow these steps: 1. Burn the Windows AIK supplement ISO image to DVD-ROM. 2. Open an elevated command prompt. 3. Replace the installed Windows PE 3.0 files with the corresponding Windows PE 3.1 files from the ISO. To do this, run the following command:
x c o p yE : \" C : \ P r o g r a mF i l e s \ W i n d o w sA I K \ T o o l s \ P E T o o l s "/ E R D Y where E:\ is the root directory of the ISO image. Note C:\Program Files\Windows AIK\ is the default installation location. If you installed the Windows AIK to a different location, modify the command accordingly.
If you repair the Windows AIK after you integrate the supplement, you must also reinstall the supplement. Reinstalling the supplement requires that you recopy the Windows PE 3.1 files. To repair the Windows AIK and reinstall the supplement, follow these steps: 1. Click Start, click Control Panel, double-click Programs and Features, and then click Windows Automated Installation Kit. 2. Click Repair. 3. Replace the installed Windows PE 3.0 files with the corresponding Windows PE 3.1 files from the ISO. To do this, repeat the supplement installation procedure. You can now customize the Windows 7 SP1 boot.wim file in the same way that you customize the Windows 7 RTM boot.wim file.
Critical Issues
Installing Windows 7 Service Pack 1
[Added January, 2011] You can use the Windows 7 version of the Windows AIK to deploy both Windows 7 and Windows 7 Service Pack 1 images. For information about installing Service Pack 1, see the Deployment Guide for Windows Server 2008 R2 with SP1 and Windows 7 with SP1.

Note The mount folder must already exist and you must have read and write access to it. 2. Delete the files in the \ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\DRM folder. Delete the contents of the folder, but not the folder itself. For example, open C:\Win7mount\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\DRM. Note If you do not see files in the folder, or the ProgramData folder itself, then make sure that hidden, system, and protected files are visible. To show the files, use the a t t r i bcommand in a command prompt or the Show hidden files, folders, and drives option in the Folder Options control panel. 3. Delete the key values from the DRM key of the mounted images registry.
a. Open regedit. b. Select the [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE] hive. c. From the main menu, select File, and then Load Hive. The Open File dialog box opens. d. Navigate to the mounted Windows image. For example: i. Browse to C:\Win7mount\Windows\System32\Config and select the file called SOFTWARE. ii. Provide a unique name for the hive. For example: Win7mountSOFTWARE. The new hive is displayed in the list under the [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE] hive. e. In this new hive, browse to the WMDRM key. Assuming that you named the loaded hive Win7MountSOFTWARE, and depending on the architecture of the operating system, the keys are in the following locations: Windows 7 x86: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Win7MountSOFTWARE\Microsoft\DRM] Windows 7 x64: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Win7MountSOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\DRM] f. Delete any values or subkeys under this key. For example, delete the DataPath REG_BINARY value. g. Select the loaded hive in the left-hand pane. h. From the main menu, select File, and then Unload Hive. 4. Commit the changes to the .wim file and then unmount the image. For example:
I m a g e x . e x e/ u n m o u n t/ c o m m i tc : \ W i n 7 m o u n t 5. Verify the workaround resolved the issue by installing the updated Install.wim file. Verify the following changes in the updated image: An empty \ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\DRM folder exists The DRM regkey has no values or subkeys in it. Verify the workaround is applied successfully by playing the .wma file without error.
Installing Windows AIK in two languages on the same computer is not supported
Windows AIK enables a subsequent installation in a different language, even if there is a pre-existing Windows AIK with another language installed. Installation of Windows AIK in multiple languages on the same computer is not supported.
Windows Server 2008 R2 Windows Server 2008 Windows Vista Windows Server 2003 Installing Windows AIK on pre-release versions of Windows 7 and Windows Vista causes the offline servicing and Windows Preinstallation Environment (Windows PE) customization components to behave unexpectedly.
The version of .NET Framework that is provided on the Windows AIK DVD is English only
To install a localized version of the Microsoft .NET Framework, go to the Microsoft Download Center.
Installing Windows AIK to a directory path that contains parentheses is not supported
For example, \Program Files\Windows AIK (Windows7) is not a supported directory path.
An error might occur while running Sysprep when Windows Media Player sharing is enabled
[Added May 22, 2009] The following error might be encountered when running Sysprep on a computer that has Windows Media Player media sharing enabled:
I n f o
[ 0 x 0 f 0 0 8 0 ]S Y S P R PL a u n c h D l l : F o u n d' d r m v 2 c l t . d l l , S y s p r e p ' ;e x e c u t i n gi t E r r o r
[ 0 x 0 f 0 0 8 2 ]S Y S P R PL a u n c h D l l : F a i l u r eo c c u r r e dw h i l e
This error occurs because of issues with Windows Media Digital Rights Management (WMDRM). You must disable Windows Media Player media sharing before running the Sysprep tool. The Windows Media Player media-sharing feature requires individual user consent and must be enabled only by an end user. This same error might also occur if Windows Media Center is launched and configured, Intel Viiv is installed, or when certain third-party tuner-card drivers are installed. You must stop these services before running the Sysprep tool.
Windows SIM cannot save answer files generated from a Windows image containing an ampersand character (&) in its file path
Attempts to save an answer file with an ampersand character (&) in the Windows image file path generates an XML validation error. Workaround: Store all Windows image (.wim) files and Windows image catalog (.clg) files in directories without an ampersand (&) in the path name.
Hotfix required for Windows Vista SP1 and Windows Server 2003 R2 64-bit host environments
Before using the DISM command with the /Add-Package, /Enable-Feature, or /Disable-Feature options from a 64-bit Windows Vista with SP1 host, Windows Server 2008 RTM, or Windows Server 2003 R2 host, you must install a hotfix. To service a Windows 7 image from the host environment, you must install hotfix KB960037 on the host computer. The hotfix is available on the Windows OPK and Windows AIK media, in the hotfix <%Mediaroot%>\HotFix directory in one of the following locations: For a 64-bit Windows Vista with SP1 or Windows Server 2008 R2 RTM host operating system, install the hotfix from: \HotFix\KB960037\WS08 For a 64-bit Windows server 2003 R2 host operating system, install the hotfix from: \HotFix\KB960037\W2K3 Double-click the appropriate .exe file to install the hotfix.
Disk partitions inaccessible when booting from optical media with flat Windows PE images
When booting from a flat Windows PE image on optical media, no disk partitions are reported. This is because the NTFS service is not launched. Workaround: Run n e ts t a r tn t f sto see the partitions.
CreatePageFile option of the Wpeutil command may fail with existing page files
If a page file exists, the /CreatePageFile option must be set equal to or greater than the current size of the page file or the command will fail.
Booting Windows PE from a USB Flash Drive is only supported for RAM disk images
[Added May 2010] Windows PE does not support a standalone installation from a USB flash drive. To boot Windows PE from a USB flash drive, create a bootable Windows PE RAM disk. For more information, see the topic "Walkthrough: Create a Bootable Windows PE RAM Disk on a USB Flash Disk" in the Windows AIK documentation.

Error message: "Windows could not parse or process unattend answer file."
If there is an error in your answer file, such as a typo, you might receive the following error message: "Windows could not parse or process unattend answer C:\Windows\Panther\Unattend.xml for <configuration pass>. The settings specified in the answer file cannot be applied. The error was detected when processing settings for <component name>." This error message does not appear until you have installed Windows to a destination computer and booted the computer. To correct this, you must overwrite the answer file in the reference image with a corrected answer file. Then, you can deploy the reference image again. To update the answer file in your reference image 1. Review the Windows Setup log files to identify the exact location of the error in the answer file and in the configuration pass in which the error exists. Review the following files: %Windir%\Panther\Setupact.log %Windir%\Panther\UnattendGC\Setupact.log 2. After you have identified the errors in the answer file, use Windows SIM to create a corrected answer file. To update the answer file in the reference image, from the technician computer, run the following ImageX command to mount your master image with read/write access: ImageX /MountRW <referenceImage> <imageIndex> <mountPoint>. Where <referenceImage> is the .wim file, <imageIndex> is the index number of the Windows image inside the .wim file, and <mountPoint> is a local directory that you can mount the image to. In the following step (step 3), the mount point is referenced as T:\Mount. 3. Navigate to the log files in the mounted Windows image (T:\Mount\Windows\Panther), and then run the following command: mkdir T:\mount\windows\panther\unattend If this directory already exists, you can skip this step. 4. Copy the corrected answer file to the following location with the filename Unattend.xml: T:\Mount\Windows\Panther\Unattend\Unattend.xml. If T:\Mount\Windows\Panther\Unattend\Unattend.xml already exists, overwrite it with the new file. Also, the new answer file must be named Unattend.xml. 5. Type the following at the command prompt: ImageX /Unmount /Commit <mountPoint> The master image is now fixed. On your destination computer, format the hard disk, and then install the image again. Test that the reference image is correct. If there are still problems, repeat the steps until all errors in the answer file are corrected.

How to install?
I agreed with user WesLazara that the win7sp1 waik download link is misleading, I thought it is the Windows 7 SP1 version of WAIK, but it turns out to be a "supplement" DVD instead. As user YngDiego777 mentioned, I have no idea how to "install" this supplement on top of the Win7 WAIK
Unique display 6/26/2012
This document should have been written better however it does explain how to install
First you have to download and install the original WAIK from here http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=5753
People please read document carefully it does state what this is and how to install. You are replacing PETOOLS
a) This is an optional compenent b) This WAIK Update replaces WinPE 3.0 c) Installation instructions copied from above ====================
To install the Windows PE 3.1 Windows AIK supplement, follow these steps: 1. Burn the Windows AIK supplement ISO image to DVD-ROM. 2. Open an elevated command prompt. 3. Replace the installed Windows PE 3.0 files with the corresponding Windows PE 3.1 files from the ISO. To do this, run the following command:xcopy
Having said this the PM for this WAIK supplement I hope is embarsed with the contents of this readme. As can be clearly seen you did not explain this as clearly as we expect.

How to install?
If you can't figure out how to install this then you need to just toss your computer and go to work at McDonald's. Why don't you try reading the document? The installation instructions are right in front of you. I thought my users were stupid but you guys are right up there with them.
