Win7 PE - driver incection

[Nierewa]

Hi,

I have a Win7PE boot.wim file wich be loades with ventoy.
But I can't use either mouse nor keyboard.

How can I add USB3 driver? With injection plugin it doesn't work?

Code:

"injection": [
        {
            "image": "/iso/Win7PE/boot1.wim",
            "archive": "/driver/Intel_USB3_Win7.zip"
        }
    ]

Folderstructur within Intel_USB3_Win7.zip:

sources
  |-$OEM$
     |-Win7
        |-x64
            |-usb.inf
        |-x86
            - usb.inf

Or using VentoyAutoRun.bat?

Need some help/tutorial. Thanks

I don't known much about Windows driver load mechanism.
Will the driver auto loaded if you inject to $OEM$ folder?
You can test it firstly with a VM(e.g. Vmware/VirtualBox) to make sure that the driver is auto loaded after boot.
If it is not auto loaded, you can inject the driver and the VentoyAutoRun.bat together, and install the driver in the VentoyAutoRun.bat.

Driver not loaded. Can you tell me how I can install driver with VentoyAutoRun.bat?

drvload.exe xxx.inf ?

For windows it should work with: pnputil.exe -i -a *.inf

But... I can't get VentoyAutoRun.bat to work.

I have the file windows_injection.7z in the same folder like ventoy.json and also in root of the stick (where the ISO folder is)
In ventoy.json I added:

Code:

"injection": [
        {
            "image": "/Livesysteme/Win7PE/boot1.wim",
            "archive": "/windows_injection.7z"
        }
    ]

I started in VM but there's no VentoyAutoRun.bat under x and so nothing happens.

check case and spelling of lines in ventoy.json (e.g. Livesysteme - captital L? system ?)
if you look at your .7z file, does it have VentoyAutoRun.bat and \Windows at top level?
Check using Ventoyplugson https://ventoy.net/en/plugin_plugson.html

I checked twice, all correct

Try with a different boot.wim (e.g from windows 10 iso).
So does the X:\ contain any files from your .7z file?

[Nierewa]

I test it with an Win7PE iso file, here it works.
X:\ contains all files from windows_injection.7z.

My VentoyAutoRun.bat:

Code:

@echo off

REM ###########################################################################
REM  This is an example of Ventoy windows injection auto run batch script

REM  The 1st parameter is the ISO file full path.

%Inject% -i -a x64/iusb3hub.inf
%Inject% -i -a x64/iusb3xhc.inf

:Ende

and the VentoyAutoRun.log

Code:

ISOFILE="C:\\Livesysteme\Win7PE.ISO"
MNTPOINT=Y

What does the 00 mean?

[Steve2926]

VentoyAutoRun.bat and injection is for ISO files - no mention is made of support for .wim files.
