I two PCs, one with win& x64 and other with win7 32bit. I need to setup 14 PCs, some with win7 x32 and some with win7 x64 depending on the processor support. Some are C2D some are single core and some are quadcore with different SATA. I download the latest driver packs and using the vernalex tool (SysPrep Driver Scanner) scanned/added the drivers ( chipset and mass storage drivers only)and also copied the drivers in the c:\windows\INF folder(no unattend.xml file).. Then I ran sysprep(OOBE and generalize) followed by shutdown. Backed up the image using acronis(my version does not have universal restore) When I reimahed another PC with the image the PC hets stuck in a boot loop. If any expert around here could please help me with a few questions. I am fimiliar with the winXP image creation but not with Win 7 since my first attemp was a dismal failure. 1. Do I need to add textmode drivers for the SATA storage? If yes how/whichtool? 2. Is it possible to add SATA drivers to the current install that is stuck in the boot loop? 3. Is there any utility to get all the drivers without installing win 7 on the machine 4. Is there a guide for what I am trying to do. TIA
