Bart's PE Builder v3 plugin

---

TBIView

TBIView by TeraByte Unlimited

Please note that using TBIView in the PE environment is not officially supported.

Installing the TBIView Plugin

1. Download and extract the Bart's PE Builder distribution, if you haven't done so already.

2. Extract the contents of the TBIView plugin to the plugin directory that was created in step 1 above. The TBIView plugin files should end up in plugin\tbiview, because of the folder information in the TBIView plugin archive.

3. Download and install TBIView, if you haven't done so already.

   • TBIView is included in the Image for Windows installation package as well.

   • This plugin will not work with versions of TBIView prior to 3.0.

4. Copy the following file from the TBIView installation directory to the plugin\tbiview directory:

   TBIVIEW.EXE

5. Build and burn the BartPE ISO file as usual.

   • The TBIView plugin is enabled by default.

   • TBIView's help file will not be accessible under BartPE.

   • If you would like your TBIView settings to be applied in the PE environment, follow the instructions below before performing step 5.

   • If you need a utility for burning the ISO file to disc, try TeraByte Unlimited's free BurnCDCC utility.

• To make TBIView load automatically when you boot into the PE environment, ensure that the Startup Group plugin is enabled, and remove the leading semicolon from the following line in plugin\tbiview\tbiview.inf:

  ;autorun_tbiview.cmd=2,,4

Applying TBIView Settings in the PE Environment

1. Download and install TBIView, if you haven't done so already.

2. Run TBIView, and configure it to your liking, including window size/position, and column sizes.

   • The display resolution used in the PE environment may differ from that of your regular Windows environment. Keep this in mind if you wish to apply a specific window size/position or column sizes for TBIView.

   • You should ensure that, for any TBIView settings that refer to folders, those path(s) will be available in the PE environment.

3. Open Regedit and navigate to this key:

   HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\TeraByte Unlimited\TBIView

4. Click the aforementioned registry key one time to select it, then select Export... from the File menu of Regedit. Provide a file name (any name will do), and save the .REG file to an appropriate location on your hard drive.

5. Open the .REG file from step 4 in a text editor such as Notepad.

6. Open plugin\tbiview\tbiview.inf in another text editor window.

7. For each TBIView setting you wish to have configured in the PE environment, copy its data from the .REG file to the [Software.AddReg] section in plugin\tbiview\tbiview.inf. Please refer to the examples below, and/or the examples included in the original copy of plugin\tbiview\tbiview.inf.

   • Don't copy and paste entire lines; only the data itself needs to be copied over.

   • The formatting of the data will need to be changed slightly.

   • The default drive letter used by the RAMDisk plugin is B:.
