I'll be using my x64 and x86 RTM , you can use the ones you have (retail, etc.), the procedure is the same.
1. Please download and install the Windows7 Automated Installation Kit (AIK).
2. Please create a working folder:
c:\Windows7AIO\Distribution\
and two more folders in it x86 and x64
3. Now, copy all the contents of your x86 DVD to the distribuition folder, in c:\Windows7AIO\Distribution\
4. Move the file named install.wim� from c:\Windows7AIO\Distribution\Sources to c:\Windows7AIO\Distriburion\x86
5. Copy the file named install.wim� from the Sources folder of your x64 RTM to the folder c:\Windows7AIO\Distribution\x64 (only install.wim)
6. Now, with admin rights, open the Deployment Tools Command Prompt (click in Start/All programs/Microsoft Windows AIK)
7. We change directory to our working folder:
8. OK, here's the tricky part. We are now about to export the images of each windows version to a single .WIM image file. The command to do this is IMAGEX.EXE. The syntax is as follows:
This is what the first line of code does: export Version 1 of the source image file named Install.wim located in the folder c:\Windows7AIO\Distribution\x86 to the destination image file named Install.wim located in c:\Windows7AIO\Distribution. The number 1 corresponds to the Home Basic edition of Windows, take a look at the following table, for the SourceNumber and its corresponding Windows Edition:
Thus, for example if we wanted to add the 64bit Ultimate version of Windows7 to our newly created image we type the following command:
9. Now that we've created our .WIM image file, let's create our ISO image file to make it ready to burn it to a DVD. To do this, still in the Deployment Tools Command Prompt window, we type:
This will create an ISO file named Win7_AIO.iso in c:\
Delete x86 and x64 folder and all *.clg files in sources folder!!
Burn it with Nero on DVD and thats it ;)
thx go to member chon's guide on on MSFN forum, that I modified to win7
Enjoy

- Code:
CD c:\Windows7AIO\Distribution\Sources
8. OK, here's the tricky part. We are now about to export the images of each windows version to a single .WIM image file. The command to do this is IMAGEX.EXE. The syntax is as follows:
- Code:
imagex /export c:\Windows7AIO\Distribution\x86\install.wim 1 .\install.wim "Windows7 Home Basic x86"
imagex /export c:\Windows7AIO\Distribution\x64\install.wim 1 .\install.wim "Windows7 Home Basic x64"
This is what the first line of code does: export Version 1 of the source image file named Install.wim located in the folder c:\Windows7AIO\Distribution\x86 to the destination image file named Install.wim located in c:\Windows7AIO\Distribution. The number 1 corresponds to the Home Basic edition of Windows, take a look at the following table, for the SourceNumber and its corresponding Windows Edition:
- Code:
Number Windows Edition
1 Home Basic
2 Home Premium
3 Proffesional
4 Starter
5 Ultimate
Number Windows x64Edition
1 Home Basic
2 Home Premium
3 Proffesional
4. Ultimate
Thus, for example if we wanted to add the 64bit Ultimate version of Windows7 to our newly created image we type the following command:
- Code:
imagex /export c:\Windows7AIO\Distribution\x64\install.wim 4 .\install.wim "Windows7 Ultimate x64"
9. Now that we've created our .WIM image file, let's create our ISO image file to make it ready to burn it to a DVD. To do this, still in the Deployment Tools Command Prompt window, we type:
- Code:
oscdimg -n -bc:\Windows7AIO\distribution\boot\etfsboot.com c:\Windows7AIO\distribution c:\Win7_AIO.iso -m
This will create an ISO file named Win7_AIO.iso in c:\
