Mmm, I’m not sure I could create a dump. I have disabled the WER (Windows Error Reporting) services while I was trying to troubleshoot problems with another software, and didn’t remember to turn it back on.
Is it possible to create a dump without enabling WER again??
Setting the controller to IDE mode in the BIOS is probably the best option (if your laptop allows it).
AHCI rarely offers a speed boost (in some cases it can even DEGRADE performance!), and the native IDE drivers included with Windows XP are the most stable (much more stable than intel’s).

I very much prefer no-cd patches to emulation. Sometimes even the original game authors will release a No-CD patch free of charge (like the windows port of Halo 1, for example)
Anyway, whatever you do, Bazis, please DO NOT add rootkit-like behaviour to WinCDEmu. I stopped using Daemon Tools because of that!!
InCtrl5?? My gosh, that tool is still alive??!?
I can barely remember using it. It’s been obsoleted by tools like Total Uninstall, but the problem is that they all cost money 🙁
Mmmm, that would be quite strange.
Old versions of WinPE (1.x and older) only detected Plug and Play devices at startup, when the tool factory.exe executed at boot.
But new versions of WinPE (2.x and newer) can detect plug and play devices at any time. I have plugged USB pendrives many times into a running WinPE 3.1 host (in a physical real system) and it detected the pendrive correctly.
There is even a special WinPE command called “DRVLOAD.EXE” that can load device drivers on the fly from a .INF file. I’ve used it lots of times to get SCSI controllers working.
I think that the problem must be somewhere else. WinPE is a “bare-bones” version of Windows, and there are a lot of DLLs missing. Maybe your program needs one of those missing DLLs ??
Have you ever used ImDisk?
http://www.ltr-data.se/opencode.html/#ImDiskThat tool is capable of installing itself and running well under WinPE. And it’s able to do that without needing a reboot, and without having to prepare the WinPE ISO in any way!!
In fact, I have no choice but to use ImDisk right now, but I really like your WinCDEmu program a lot, and I would love to be able to use yours also!
Could you please reconsider this feature again?
Ooops, I didn’t notice that you have to register to download the ISO 🙁
I’ve uploaded another bootable ISO (made with the official WAIK tool) here if you don’t want to register:

Sure, here’s the official bootable ISO from Microsoft:
There’s no need to install anything if you don’t need to customize it. Just burn to a blank DVD, boot your computer from it and you’re ready to go.
It works very well under Virtual PC and Virtualbox also.
Thanks in advance!
Please, pretty, please, consider adding support for WinPE in the portable edition!!
It would be really nice and useful for those who deploy windows from WinPE. I wish I could simply copy the official Microsoft ISOs downloaded from Technet, then boot the computer with WinPE, and finally mount the images with the portable edition of WinCDEmu.
But we need WinCDEmu to be compatible with WinPE before we can do that!
