what am I doing wrong?

Hi everyone.

I'm a total newbie to this autoit scripting, so is to this programming sort of thing.

I have a problem with this code i've been writing for a few days.

I'm building a GUI for my PE cd. this gui will become a loader for all of the tools that I included in my pe to replace PExplorer.exe. Unfortunately I have this problem I can't overcome with.

So basically what I'm trying to do is:

1, pe loads, then this cpe09load.exe will be the shell replacement. I has 2 windows, one is to show all the tools in this cd, i named it "frmCPE09";

another is "frmWindows", which has a listbox, and a button. Initially, both are hidden.

2, at start-up, function "_checkWindowsFolder()" check all the hard drives, to see if there are folder name "windows"

3, If a drive contain a folder named "windows", save it to a array, and then continue until all the hard drive are checked.

4, then it will write things in that array to the listbox, then show "frmWindows" windows, therefore user can choose one and then write it to another var for later.(like _checkREG()). and then make "frmCPE09" visible.

when I type all the codes and then test it in a real windows, this works, everything acts as expected. But when I put it in the pe, the "frmWindows" doesn't show, it will directly goes to "frmCPE09". whither there is a drive with "windows" folder or not.

oh and I made my pe based on AIK 3.0(windows7)

thanks in advanced.

can't find edit button...

when copying I made a mistake.

$winFind =_checkWindowsFolder() should go before $checkRegOK = _checkREG()

so the code is

Global $WinFolder =""                                   
Global $regFileLoc[6]
$checkRegOK = _checkREG()



$winFind =_checkWindowsFolder()

....

Or if there's better way to do it, please share.
