Guest

hi.
I need your help about xpe problem. i have an application with a dialog
(show some GDI graphics) pop up when it start, so i want the computer system
start with this application show without anything about windows or welcome
notice. last time, i consult here, and have been told to use the custom
shell.

i did, but find still has the window wall paper and windows xp embeded
welcome notice. i don't know what i should further do.

i describe the procedure i did:

1. i used TAP to get device.pmq, then import into component designer, get a
device.sld. then import into component database manager.

2. i Created a Custom Shell Component (myownshell.sld) as directed exactly
as the manual in
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms940838.aspx , again import into
component database manager.

3. In Target designer, add the following components:
a. device.sld as above
b. myownshell.sld as above
c. design templates\windows_based terminal professional component
d. software\system\storage & file system\infrastructure\filesystem\FAT
e. software\storage &file system\application\FAT Format
f. software\system\system services\Base\Nt Loader

then build, there is no error.

but when i reboot the xpe image, it still has the windows xp embeded
wallpaper and the welcome notice in the boot process. and that's what wnat to
get rid of.

the application with i used as shell (as experiment, i used cmd.exe, it
failed either)

my application is a win32 dialog program, which run on the windows xp
professional just fine, but i don't want the windows starting splash and the
wallpaper and welcome notice, i want the system started with my own program.
also when it shutdown there is not shutdown notice as in the xp professional.

where i did wrong? please help me.

thank you very much!

sincerely, Winston.

In Target Designer, select "Settings" immediately under your .slx (center
column). On the right column, select "Other settings" and check "Do not
display GUI boot screens".
