@stefanRTR:
This is the first time I am writing on any forum, mainly because I am quite hopeful about Win Integrator.
I am using Win Integrator 1.2.0.7 and trying to modify a Win8 DP image. The image is clean, not modified before. I have WAIK for Win7 installed. OS on which I have installed Win Integrator is Windows 8.
It's able to identify contents of DVD and correctly shows as Windows Developer Preview x64. But at the end of copying contents from source DVD to folder in hard drive, it crashes and generate an error log. I tried various settings, and uninstalled / installed it in compatibility mode, even installed it on Windows 7 x64 too. But no difference. It still crashes....
This is as far as it could go till now.
Here is the error log attached with this post.

I am not a developer, or has much of a software background. So, my knowledge about internal coding and that geek stuff is pretty much limited. However, I am quite curious about Windows and keep on tinkering my C drive..
My first choice was rt7lite, but that doesn't even identify Windows 8 iso image. And feature for feature, Win Integrator comes closest to that.
I have also tried Windows 7 Toolkit, and I was able to reduce iso size from original 3.63 GB to 3.49GB. But W7T doesn't give much flexibility and choices in removing components. Not at least as much as RT7Lite. I am looking for something better.
So, stefanRTR, can you please help me with this? Is WI compatible with Windows 8 DP and can it be used to reduce size of Windows 8 DP?
Keep up the good work dear...
