Hello i am here because i need some orientation with Windows 7. I Build PCs for a living and up to now i was a combination of nLite, driver packs, and custom run ounce to install windows and all the program i wanted. That way i could just put the disk into the drive of any PC and wait 2 hours and i had i operating PC without moving a finger. Now i know i can do pretty much the same thing with vLite. But here is i wanted to know if there were better option. here is what i thought about and i need opinion and direction please. 1. Imaging route. I would install the whole system and all the programs and then make an image of the system. Then store this image on an external hard drive on an other computer. The next time i build a similar system ( same CPU / MB combo at least) I could just '' restaure the image on a new drive and just plug it into the new system. Change the computer network name and windows serial key and that it. I am looking for a program that is made to do that. ca someone help me? 2. Sysprep. I do not know much about this method but i heard it is possible to do a lot with it. and i wander before i spend 2 days learning how it work i like to know if it will suit my needs.
