Hi All, Thanks everyone for your input, most appreciated. I did manage to get it working in the end but the problem was with my source! I had a 64bit version of win 7 RTM, and I was trying to create an x86 unattend. Even though I'd only selected x86 architecture, it didnt like the image/name , image/description/ image/index when I set in UA.xml All good now, changed source to 32bit version and all works correctly, I was racking my brain for a few days and went over firegeirs guide numerous times from scratch! Thanks again. Cheers, Wezzy
