The partitioning tools within Win10 PE should support GPT, but maybe only in UEFI mode for the standalone Mini Windows 10 ISO. I'm not experienced in GPT, I still only use MBR.

I have no clue what a .ptn is.
so i succesfully got an iso to boot as a memdisk but booting them from grub4dos isnt working properly. perhaps its because youre values only work on windows isos?

Are you referring to the spoken audio, or the bootup screen? The audio file is inside the sources\boot.wim, at \Windows\media\startup.mp3 and can always be deleted entirely. Just open the boot.wim with the latest 64-bit 7zip, and you can delete the file effortlessly.

Ok, thanks ! A .ptn is a .iso converted so Easy2Boot can "mount it" in a certain way so we can boot both in uefi and legacy (the advantage is that there is still the other isos in the usb with E2B)

But I couldn't try your image because apparently fat32 don't support 15 Gb file.

Have a nice day !

Jayro, First I want to congratulate you on your great compilation of programs, I have used many other rescue disks in the past and yours is the most comprehensive that I've seen. I have successfully added several other stand alone programs that appear to work just fine. My question is how do I add a driver for a wireless adaptor. I am new to working with wims so I'm not sure how to go about adding it. Thanks.

search up "how to add drivers to a windows pe enviroment" youll get a link to a microsoft site with details.

Plus, I always include a handful of wireless drivers with it, you just need to open Snappy Driver Installer from the PortableApps menu and install them. It works offline and has drivers from most major brands like Intel, Atheros, Broadcom, etc.
