Win8.1SE project is based on PE5 environment and will use a Windows 8.1 DVD and supports both x86 or x64 architectures.
It is better (recommended) to have the DVD copied in a folder on your hard drive.
Win8.1SE is Based on the experienced organisation and reliability of Win7PE SE and Win8PE SE. It comes as a base with only a minimal of applications.
Take pleasure to personalize it and to add your components and applications.
2 types of constructions are possible in Win8.1SE.
- OS in RAM: to build a lightweight Win8.1 OS in RAM with the Administrator login and the full Windows 8.1 registry. This is the default option.
Noted that the startup and the administrator logon is faster on a real computer that on Virtual Machine, in any case for me, tested with an usb2 stick.
- PE in RAM: to build a PE5 environment based on Windows 8.1 with the Sytem account.
Some features may not work as desired in PE build type due to security restrictions in Windows 8.1.
The most annoying and not bypassed for now, is the taskbar which is locked. You need to switch between applications by using Alt+Tab.
By cons, the options "Refresh / Reset your PC" of the recovery environment works in the PE Mode but not yet in the OS build type.
* Be careful with the option "Refresh your PC", there are a lot of posts about it on the net.
Thank you very much to sp_star for his idea and his great work on Win8.1 RamOS and to Doberman for all improvements provided on his Win8.1 RamOS ![:thumbup]()

History:
A big thanks to the precursors on Win7PESE: Yahoouk's and JFX's.
Besides JFX continued help on numerous critical PE3 building cases and on PE4 as with WoW64 (running 32bit programs in a 64bit environment) and others... ![:)]()
We are happy to see him around.
