Acronis Winpe Iso Builder
I just tried to build an Echo TIW WinPE disk with Windows Vista OEM Preinstallation Kit (OPK) (can be downloaded from same link above) as the source and surprisingly it worked. So, Echo can use WinPE 2.0 as a source (9.1 could not). As for WAIK, you can add the TI components to the WIM image but after the components are added I'm not sure how to create a bootable disk.
Here are a couple of links that might help. Also, when you are browsing for the PE Files in the builder, what directory/file (if WIM) from the Windows AIK directory are you browsing to?
What OS are you running? What where the steps or messages you received before it gives you the 'Serial # not found' error? Unfortunately, this is a rarely used feature so you probably won’t get too much help in the forum.

With all of the unsupported hard drives, validation and speed issues the Linux based recovery disk has, I don’t know why its popularity isn’t picking up. I wish it would because it a much more versatile and stable recovery disk. Although, with BartPE and VistaPE you can create a multi use rescue disk and not a “one hit wonder”. Maybe it’s because the OPK’s are too difficult to get? I would try to get a copy of the Vista OPK to use instead of the WAIK because it is much more straight forward.
I tried using the WAIK as the source and when the builder ask for the PE files I point it to'C: Program Files Windows AIK Tools PETools x86 winpe.wim'. This will complete sucessful for me but it will not create a bootable disk, only an updated WIM image. You have to create the disk (I'm guessing) with the WAIK tools. With the Vista OPK (ISO) I am talking about, you don't have to have a Vista oem disk. Everything you need is included in the OPK. You don't even install it, just burn it to a disk or mount it virtually. It is a 983MB download though.
I believe the registered level for being a Microsoft Partner is free so all you have to do is sign up and you can get the OPK's (link above). Click to expand.at that time i was using Xp pro oem, acronis sent me a diff trial key and the serial # issue went away, they said that prob would be corrected in a latter build, also the image that i was able to build i had problems where it would not boot, that i never did get fixed. Anyone that got the acronis winpe image built that would boot, did it boot to a gui?, or was it only for command use? Also on my new system i just finnished loading i am dual booting xp pro and vista ultimate, does the winpe uses a gui?
Then i may attempt to build from vista, as that os is raw as rite now. I had always thought i would never have it again, 100mb service is sch sometime in the future 'year or two' most likely, but molasses flows slow here in mississippi 'Brent Farve country', very small sigh tells everyone they have arrived, and i do mean small. I had looked over that site you mentioned and it could be very worth while IF i had DSL, as it is i have to go somewhere to get large downloads, couldnt get you to build me one could i?, lol, truthly acronis does me well, and has for years but it never hurts to have another utility to help along, may try the local shop for an opk vista when i take em out on the boat latter in the year and show em my pet gator!
