DISM – WIM p_w_picpath configuration for Windows 7 and Vista

前些時候我介紹過DISM, 一個包含在windows 7 WAIK中用來管理WIM映像的新工具。對於這樣一個如此重要的工具，我抱怨微軟不能提供一個圖形化的管理工具。使用windows一個好處是如果微軟沒有提供某個功能，其他人會挺身而出。ELDI 好心地把他的免費DISM圖形介面工具GDism ELD連結在我最初的帖子上。我已經快速地研究了這個工具。

首先說說它的缺點：它需要JRE(JAVA 執行環境）。

A while back I introduced DISM, the new tool of the Windows 7 WAIK (Windows Automated Installation Kit) for managing WIM p_w_picpaths. I was complaining then that Microsoft doesn’t offer a GUI (graphical user interface) for such an important tool. The nice thing about Windows is that if Microsoft doesn’t provide a function, someone else steps into the breach. ELDI was kind enough to link to his free DISM GUI

Let me start with the tool’s downside. It requires the Java Runtime Environment (JRE). I think it would be more useful if it were a portable application. However, if you use GDism only on your desktop, it is certainly more convenient than using DISM on the command prompt.

GDism also requires you to install the Windows Automated Installation Kit (AIK) for Windows 7 because it launches DISM from its GUI. I didn’t find an option to tell GDism where DISM is located, so I just copied all its files to the folder where all the WAIK tools are located (C:\Program Files\Windows AIK\Tools\PETools). I suppose adding the directory to the PATH environment variable would have worked as well.

To run GDism, you have to launch the “Instalar” file. If you don’t speak Spanish, you might want to switch the tool’s user interface to English. You can find the switch in the lower right pane on the mount tab.

I won’t discuss all of GDism’s functions because that would essentially boil down to describing DISM. You can mount WIM p_w_picpaths and apply all kinds of changes, such as adding packages or drivers. The main advantage of using GDism is that you don’t have to remember all the command line switches and can just focus on your main task. The DISM messages are displayed in GDism’s lower pane and are also logged in a text file; therefore, you won’t miss anything that DISM has to complain about.

Let me know your experiences if you tried the tool.

If you are interested in GUI for DISM, you may also like GImageX, a GUI for ImageX.
