GUI in WINPE

[scubasteve1281]

I'm building a customized system restore using WINPE and Autoit. I made a Gui that is executed from the Winpeshl.ini file this gui gives a restore button a reboot button and a button that spawns cmd window. the problem I'm having is that the initial Gui is not being displayed in WINPE if I hit the default keys for restore process it will start the process and spawn the restore progress window and that window will be visible. The Gui script works just fine on a win7 box. I then created a dummy Gui and ran it in the WINPE environment it worked fine also so I'm not sure what is wrong with my script.

;This the GUI automation for restoration process

; Required includes for the GUI interface
#include <ButtonConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <StaticConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <EditConstants.au3>
#include <ProgressConstants.au3>
#include <SendMessage.au3>

;This creates the varibles required for the proccess
$varReboot = "x:\windows\system32\wpeutil.exe reboot" ; Var for reboot a sytem in side a win PE enviroment
$varGhostrestore = "x:\ghost\GHOST32.exe -clone,mode=prestore,src=e:\factory.GHO:1,dst=1:2 -sure -fx -RB -BLIND" ; this is the command that executes the ghost restore

;this installs the  icture fiels used in the GUI
FileInstall("C:\Ghost Recovery\GBThumb.jpg" , "")
FileInstall("C:\Ghost Recovery\GBcrazy.jpg" , "")

;this the main GUI page

Change this on your scipt

$Formmain = GUICreate("Recovery ", 610, 360, 1596, 142)

to:

$Formmain = GUICreate("Recovery ", 633, 447, 192, 124)

Now it wil be visible.

wow I can't believe I missed that they should be -1, -1 so that it centers it
