Henk; Thank you for the reply. I will give it a test run and let everyone know if it works. Guitarman

Have an interesting problem that I am sure someone can help me with. Created a dual boot of XP and Vista and using BCD edit made the XP the default. Everything was working fine. Since I needed to image several other computers with this dual boot, using sysprep on the XP only, I dump the dual boot image up using Ghost 11. To test my wonderful creation I imaged another computer (same model). Everything went fine. The computer defaulted to XP, sysprep ran, I named the computer, it joined our domain, and all was great. Well, it re-booted, as it should, defaulted to XP, and ran sysprep again, and again, and again. My wonderful image is just not happy anymore. Now, I can get into Vista with no problem, because I did not sysprep Vista, but the XP keeps running sysprep. I realize that I am a I d 10 t error waiting to happen. So what am I doing wrong? Thanks for you help Guitarman

Good day all; Have a question for everyone. Looking for a little help to save me a few moments of time while imaging around 800 desktops and laptops. I work for a community college. Before the Fall Semester begins we image all the computers on campus to get them ready for classes. We are using Windows XP SP2 and using sysprep to help us get them setup. I have setup the sysprep to stop where we name our computers and from that point on it finishes the job for us. Big time saver. To help save me a few more minutes I was wondering if there is a way where, as the very last step, sysprep could have the computer login the student as the user, with the student password and to the correct domain? Basically the login name is student, then the password and then the domain instead of the computer name. I have a feeling there is a way, but I don't know where to look and need the help of those who know much more then me. Any help is appreciated. Thank-you for your time Guitarman
