Hi, Currently, I am upgrading some of the computers to Windows 7, however, the group policy in Windows 2003 server used to monitor XP seems lacked. Are there is an updated version of adm file for Windows 2003 server to manage Windows 7? I know upgrading to Windows 2008 that the problem will be solved, but I want to continue using Windows 2003 server because in WDS for Windows 2008, there is no mixed mode for deployment, only native mode. In another word, I want to keep Windows XP deployment for some clients. So, any helps will be great.

Thx, However, I am looking for either registry, script, or silent switch that I can do it silently because I am doing deployment.

thank you so much. got it to work. Do you have the registry that enable the quick launch on windows 7?

Are you using WDS to deploy? or You put them into a CD? I have everything automatic with WDS setup with following in xml. If you are doing WDS, you need 2 xml files. I have never tried to put the image into the dvd. <WindowsDeploymentServices><ImageSelection> <InstallImage> <Filename>Windows 7 SP1 Ultimate Post Update.wim</Filename> <ImageName>Windows 7 SP1 ULTIMATE x64 Post Update</ImageName> <ImageGroup>Windows 7 SP1 Deployment x64 Post Update</ImageGroup> </InstallImage></InstallImage>

How do you guys put the computer icon, network neighborhood icon, and IE icon on the desktop unattendedly on a fresh installed computer? WAIK, Silent Switch, or Registry?

I use Onepiece's DX WinNT6.x True Integrator.

any portable version for 1.4.9.3?

It seems like they change the file name of the Avira file, avira_antivir_personal_en.exe->avira_free_antivirus_en.exe. Any update to fix that?

I am using WDS to deploy Windows 7 unattended, and I want to run a batch after the installation to configure and install softwares. I use firstlogoncommands. However, it pops up the "open file - security warning." Are there anyway to bypass this warning? will setupcomplete.cmd able to install softwares?

Hi, I am using Windows Deployment Service to deploy Windows 7, and I am using WAIK to do the unattended file xml. I wonder are there an option to do the runonce after the installation in WAIK?

Thank you guys, I will try all your methods, and will report back later. Just wondering why MSFT not inject more drivers into the boot.wim. I thought the issue has resolved during Windows 7 b/c I have to do the same thing in Vista too.

Are there a customized boot.wim for Windows 7? I am tired of injecting drivers into the boot.wim for some of my old computers. Thus, just wondering are there a custom-made boot.wim??? or are there any easy method to inject drivers into boot.wim instead of using imagex?

Hi, I am using WDS to deploy Windows 7. In XP deployment, there is an option to deploy xp with classic setup look by using nLite to customize it. I want to know are this option available in Win 7 deployment too?

Keep up the good work
