Dell™ OptiPlex™ FX160 Re-Imaging Guide
The Dell OptiPlex FX160 computer with an internal flash card hard drive is
preloaded with either a Microsoft®Windows®XP Embedded or SUSE®
Linux Enterprise Thin Client (SLETC) operating system. However, when
system updates are released, or special configurations are required, the
internal FX160 flash card or hard drive can be re-imaged.
Re-Imaging the FX160 Computer With Microsoft Windows
For the FX160 Windows XP Embedded operating system, updates are
provided on a bootable DVD. Booting the FX160 computer from the DVD
opens a utility that writes the FX160 flash card. Additional software, such as
drivers for a wireless card, are loaded separately.
The DVD update disk can be transferred to a bootable USB flash drive using a
Windows system with Microsoft Windows Automation Installation Kit
(WAIK) software. The update can then installed on the FX160 flash card
when booting the FX160 computer from the USB flash drive.
Re-Imaging an FX160 Computer With the Update DVD
CAUTION: Re-imaging your FX160 computer will erase all data from the hard
drive or flash card. Back up your system to an external device before re-imaging
your computer.

Disk on a UFD. This UFD is built manually.
Create a Bootable Windows UFD Device
CAUTION: Re-imaging your FX160 computer will erase all data from the hard
drive or flash card. Back up your system to an external device before re-imaging
your computer.
What you will need:
• A workstation computer with Microsoft Vista or Microsoft XP that
provides all tools and source files.
• Access to a computer running Windows Vista or a Windows PE session.
• A UFD device. The size of the UFD device must be at least 64MB larger
than your Windows PE image plus any additional files that you include.
• FX160 Windows update DVD.
Use the Copype.cmd script to create a bootable Windows PE RAM disk on
a UFD device. With Windows PE RAM a computer can be restarted for
deployment or recovery.
NOTE: Ensure that you have sufficient memory to support the size of your Windows
PE image and any additional applications.

Dell OptiPlex FX160 Re-Imaging Guide 5
NOTE: For additional information about this procedure, see the Windows
Preinstallation Environment User Guide sections "Include a Custom Script in a
Windows PE Image" and "Walkthrough: Create a Custom Windows PE Image". This
information is part of the help system of the WAIK software.
1 Download and install the latest version of Microsoft WAIK software onto
the workstation computer.
NOTE: The download file is very large (about 1GB) .
2 Click Start , point to All Programs , point to Windows OPK or Windows
AIK
, and then click Windows PE Tools Command Prompt .
NOTE: Opening the command prompt window automatically sets environment
variables to point to all the necessary tools. By default, all tools are installed at
C:\Program Files\<version>\Tools, where <version> can be Windows OPK or
Windows AIK.
3 At the command prompt, run the command:
copype.cmd x86 <dest>
where <dest > is a local directory for this procedure, such as
c:\winpe_x86 . This script creates the <dest > directory and copies in
all necessary files for the x86 architecture to the directory. In this example,
the following directories are created:
\winpe_x86
\winpe_x86\ISO
\winpe_x86\mount
4
At the command prompt, mount the base Windows PE image
(
Winpe.wim ) to the \mount directory by using ImageX:
imagex /mountrw c:\winpe_x86\winpe.wim 1
c:\winpe_x86\mount
5
Copy the following files from the update DVD to the
\
winpe_x86\mount\windows\system32\ directory:
winpeshl.ini
DellImageDeploy.exe
Comctl32.dll
Oledlg.dll
Wimgapi.dll

6Dell OptiPlex FX160 Re-Imaging Guide
NOTE: Image preparation, performed in the next step, is not required for the Dell
Image Deployment tool. Skipping this step allows future updates to be added to
your image by simply remounting boot.wim and copying the update files to the
correct directories.
6 Prepare the image with the peimg /prep command. This command
removes non-installed packages from the image to reduce the size of the
final image:
peimg /prep c:\winpe_x86\mount\Windows
7
Commit the changes to the original image file ( Winpe.wim ) using the
ImageX /unmount option with the /commit option:
imagex /unmount c:\winpe_x86\mount /commit
8
Replace the default Boot.wim in the \winpe_x86\ISO directory
with your new customized image. The image must be called
Boot.wim .
CAUTION: When a UFD device is formatted, all files on the device are erased.
9 Prepare the UFD device. Use Diskpart to format the UFD with a Windows
Vista or Windows PE environment.
a Within a Windows Vista operating system or Windows PE session,
insert your UFD device.
b Format the entire UFD as a single FAT32 drive. The following
example assumes the UFD is
disk 1 . Open a command window and
enter the following:
diskpart
select disk 1
clean
create partition primary size=<size of device>
select partition 1
active
format fs=fat32
assign
exit

Dell OptiPlex FX160 Re-Imaging Guide 7
10 On the workstation computer, copy the entire \winpe_x86\ISO
directory to the UFD device. You can create the directory structure
manually, or use
xcopy to replicate the entire structure and contents of
\ISO . If using xcopy , enter:
xcopy c:\winpe_x86\iso\*.* /s /e /f f:\
where c is the letter of your technician computer hard disk and f is the
letter of the UFD device.
11 Remove the UFD device from the technician computer.
