With a WinPE CD I always get the prompt "Press any key to boot to CD/DVD". How can I create a CD that automatically boots to CD without the prompt?

That behaviour you see is specific to a PE disc running any form of Windows PE. More specifically, it happens if there is a boot sector detected on the hard drive. An easy way to demonstrate this is to clear any partitions from the hard drive and put in your PE disc - it will boot immediately without prompting. As for answering your question, I don't believe it is possible. |

Moab's answer is correct. Create the WinPE ISO as you usually would, then mount it and remove the bootfix.bin from the Boot directory. After that, burn it to a cd and you can boot without the prompt. See here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff794558(v=winembedded.60).aspx |
