WAIK %MACHINENAME% & System Region?


Recommended Posts

Hi All

I am being driven slowly mad by this!!!

I have the latest WAIK installed. I have WDS installed on 2003 Srv in Mixed mode.

I have a Windows 7 Pro image on the WDS. I have WDS configured to Auto name the machines using name%# (this works perfectly for the WindowsXP images).

It is also configured to place the created accounts in a specific OU which also works for XP.

Windows 7 however is being a complete nightmare to unattend install. It joins the domain but creates an aut generated named account. It sets everything to US settings and it doesn't place the accounts in the correct OU.

The relevant portions of my .xml are as follows:

<SetupUILanguage>

<UILanguage>en-US</UILanguage>

</SetupUILanguage>

<InputLocale>en-GB</InputLocale>

<UserLocale>en-GB</UserLocale>

<UILanguage>en-US</UILanguage>

<SystemLocale>en-GB</SystemLocale>

<UILanguageFallback>en-GB</UILanguageFallback>

I have tried en-UK and 0809:00000809

<ComputerName>%MACHINENAME%</ComputerName>

<MachineObjectOU>domain.local/WDS</MachineObjectOU>

Once the machine is built it will work fine but has the wrong name and region and OU.

I've spent weeks on and off on this.

Can someone please tell me once and for all how exactly I get this right. I can't see where i'm going wrong and have no decent help on the various searches and forums out there.

Thanks in advance

Rob
