multiPE is the first WinBuilder project which builds a PE from XP, Win2003, Vista and Win7 sources.
Currently only x86 sources are supported. x64 source use is under development (and already included in the project), and can be processed with some issues.

The project has three main parts:
Building the core. Depending on the source, fundamental files and registry entries are added to the target.
Adding custom apps and drivers
Building the final PE with PEFactory, either as single boot or as part of a multiboot media.
boot media is optionally ISO (CD / DVD) or UFD
The build is 'complete' including shortcuts, associations, etc. No shortcut generation, registry entries etc. are necessary during boot. That decreases boot time.

Several 'Speed Up Functions' are new developed for the multiPE project. Revolutionary is the 'RamTarget' functionality. A small PE3 including internet access can be built in less than one minute (On my system in 40 seconds).

Hi Dave,

Peter Schlang, the author of multiPE is a very good coder who has a deep understanding of Windows internals.
