Hello! I'm new to the forums and your site. I've read your docs about unattended installs, as I'm looking for a more efficient way to image my machines. Some of the info appears to be what I'd read when I first started using Sysprep. However, I'm not sure that the unattended installation info and methods you describe will solve my problem, so let me explain what I need and perhaps someone can clarify things for me... I have four different flavors of Pentium 4 machines, all Intel mobos but with different HALs (Hardware Abstraction Layers). Exactly what that involves I don't know, except that a Ghost image created on one machine blows up when it's loaded on one of the others. Rather than updating four separate images, I'd like one "Universal XP Installation Image" that is created on a master machine, with all my settings/installed software intact. I would create my Ghost image after using Sysprep and, after the image is blown down to one of the other PCs, Windows would find and load the proper hardware drivers for that motherboard as it put its face back on. I'd read on another forum sometime last year that one enterprising person had managed to do that using brute force. He'd gone into the registry on his master machine and deleted all the hardware-specific entries under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE before imaging his machine. He'd also put mobo drivers into an $OEM$ directory he'd created and Windows was able to sort things out. Unfortunately I cannot find the posting (and the user wasn't too keen on writing up detailed information on what he'd done, anyway). So, obviously this is possible. Has anyone else done this, and, if so, could you share some tips?
