Audit Mode is for creating images. It is not suited for every day use. Also, when you use Audit Mode, (in most Win7 distros) you use the Administrator account. When you sysprep to OOBE, that account gets disabled. So if you were to install Google Chrome in 7PRO and sysprep to Audit, you'd have to reinstall it.

It is typically a bad idea and/or not supported to change the first sector of a partition. This is why Diskpart doesn't do it. Some other programs might, like Partition Magic, but I never tried it. The problem comes down to having to totally rebuild the FAT because you end up bit-shifting everything in the partition. I might be wrong (wouldn't be the first time) and Jaclaz can correct me (wouldn't be the first time) Only one way to learn!

Microsoft has a software product called Dynamics SL with has an accounting package. Other versions of Dynamics might have it as well. Here is a link to it (you may need to use IE to view) http://www.microsoft.com/dynamics/en/us/products/sl-financial-management.aspx

Is it mashed potatoes? I haven't had those in awhile!

It is inevitable!

I learned a new word today!

Maybe the real question here is where it is physically located? Always tough, need a good asset management system.

Theoretically, Windows should be able to handle a motherboard change, but with a couple issues. Your new board SHOULD have the same Mass Storage Controller or else you can get a 0x7b error at boot. You may have to reactivate Windows, but sometimes it is smart enough to detect that most of the hardware is still the same. Also it is possible that you could sysprep /generalize /shutdown Windows 7, swap the board and boot back up. You could use Imagex and save your OS and could inject the drivers that way. Again its kinda risky. If it were my personal system, I would backup all my stuff and swap the board and see what happens. Worse case scenario you can do a repair install.

You should be able to redist the WinPE, but no you can't burn your own install DVDs. Only Authorized Replicators can do that. You should check with your MS Partner rep to see what options you have in your Channel.

You need to generalize to store an image. This takes all the GUIDs out of the registry and removes the drivers and stuff so you can put that image on other hardware. If you don't generalize, you could get a STOP error if you put it on other hardware. Some updates may be able to be put on with DISM, but I do not use that method.

64bit has 2 registries, probably could be it... http://support.microsoft.com/kb/305097/

I have made a v7.2 which is available on SkyDrive This version has both 32bit and 64bit support. It includes a very simple readme. It has the fixes to the Messageboxes that I made, and the XML fix that Dabone made. It also includes the two background images I had created. Let me know if you have any problems with it. I made it from my customized version that I run, so hopefully it works properly! I have not tested it.

Presuming you didn't generalize with Sysprep, then it is. IF you did generalize, you may have to use skiprearm to sysprep again. But you do not necessarily need to only install programs in Audit mode.

You can create a WinPE 3.0 x64 that launches a script that detects the partition arrangement. Then automatically launch the correct file using the /unattend switch for setup.exe.

I have not seen a time when more than one MININT will have the same IP address. The only reason I could think it would be possible is if you configured your server to use GUIDs instead of MAC Addresses. Some companies will have GUIDs of all FFF for some stupid reason. You should check your Scope settings, such as maximum clients and lease time. I personally use a lease time of 3 hours. As far as "multicasting" goes, Server does this automatically for all network traffic by default. I know that WDS has a multicast setting you can use but honesly I've never tried it. The maximum number of clients you can boot off Server's PXE is based on the amount of memory and overhead on the server. Changing SMB settings can also effect PXE. As an example, I had a WDS with 2GB RAM that could only support 8 clients. My current WDS has supported 20+ but haven't hit maximum clients yet. Using managed switches with Link Aggregation (the server needs to be able to do that also) will also take care of the 100/1000 switching issue.

This seems to be more of an Apache issue rather than Windows 7. I had some problems with this on Server 2008 R2 x64 but it always came down to things fixed in the httpd.conf. You can get rid of that bing page by changing the Advanced Internet Options - do not search from the address bar. Anyways, can you at least get to the root domain, just not the subdomains?

Here are some same XML files:

Merged these two topics. Not sure what this was originally about...

Wow these things seem to happen a lot. Is it some sort of conspiracy that mods have to have the same zodiac sign?

The driver you need is e1k62x64.inf. You will find it in the 64bit package on this page: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=19059&ProdId=3145〈=eng

Nevermind. You already have a thread about this. Do not hijack thanks.

That is going to take a really long time with USB 1.0. Actually let's hope the OP meant USB 1.1 since USB 1.0 doesn't support two way communication very well if at all.
