Back 4

dism /mount-wim /wimfile: w:\myimage.wim /index: 1 /mountdir:c: \mymountedimages The /index flag in this command indicates the image that you want to mount. You can have several images (for example, several editions of Windows 7) within a single WIM file.

Front 5

mount image using imageX command

no

Front 9

Can you mount the Install.wim file on the installation DVD-ROM?

Back 9

You can mount the Install.wim file on the installation DVD-ROM, but this enables you to
create only a read-only image, and you need to specify the /readonly flag if you execute a DISM command. If you want to create an image that you can manipulate, you need first to copy Install.wim to rewritable media and ensure that the Read Only file attribute is not set.

Front 20

If you want to add all the drivers in a folder and its subfolders

Back 20

If you want to add all the drivers in a folder and its subfolders you can use the /recurse option. For example:

dism /image:c:\mountedimages /add-driver /driver:c:\newdrivers /recurse

Front 21

On x64 computers, what kind of drivers can you install?

Back 21
