Create a Bootable USB drive with VistaPE

Step 3Setting up VistaPE

Setting up VistaPE
Now that we've downloaded the necessary files and scripts, we need to tell Winbuilder where the Vista files are.
Click the Paths button. Enter the location of your Vista files from step 1. (C:\Program Files\Windows AIK if you're using the WAIK)
Optionally, you can specify where you want to output the VistaPE files and VistaPE ISO.

I'm getting another error: IF - unrecognized clause: [c:\windows\syswow64]. evaluated string: [If,ExistDir ,"%WindowsDir%\SysWOW64",Set,%SysType%,"amd64"]
I'm on 64 bit windows 7 and am installing from the WAIK. Does anyone know how to make this work?

On Winbuilder version 076 you have to go to "Source" before changing the paths.

Bear in mind if you're building on a x64 edition of Vista, you'll NEED WAIK installed (but you can still use the x86 Vista DVD as the source).
