First off thanks for all the help that got me this far! Got EWF working with
CF, sized the image down to fit the CF, etc. I now have an XPE image that can
boot to a command prompt (dosn't sound like much, but it took a while to get
there).
Anyway, my hope is to have the application start up after the command prompt
appears. I used the RunOnce Resource (put a batch file under the Run
registry value). Problem is it seems to start up before the command prompt
appears, and it fails since, when the prompt arrives, no application is
running. I know it tries to start since I have a video frame grabber and it's
window pops up during the "Welcome" screen. I had a similar problem with
Embedded NT, and a short sleep command (5 secs) in the batch file worked.
Doesn't seem to help here - tried up to 60 seconds!
So what do I do? I would like to keep the command prompt shell (at least
for now) so I can exit my program and run some commands to copy files etc.
Thanks,
SteveS
