clivebuckwheat Posted February 13, 2011 Posted February 13, 2011 I have created a reference image of a Windows 7 image I made with all the settings and software I need for my environment. It is in wim format, this wim is essentially going to go on different types of hardware, I have injected the all the drivers that will be needed for the different types of hardware it will be deployed on to. Would I still have to run sysprep on this image, before making the wim file and injecting the drivers offline via dism?. Also the reference image was built on a Virtual Machine.Thanks for any advice you can pass my way.
Tripredacus Posted February 14, 2011 Posted February 14, 2011 If you have no other drivers or software to install, you do not need to deploy the image into Audit Mode.
clivebuckwheat Posted February 14, 2011 Author Posted February 14, 2011 (edited) I have setup my reference image, the way I want it with software and the configurations I need. the image was built in a virtual. I then created an image via imagex. The next step I did was inject the drivers via dism into the wim file, these drivers are all the drivers currently in use in our environment, all the different makes and models we have. So your saying I do not need to run sysprep before I make the wim image and inject the drivers offline via dism? Edited February 14, 2011 by clivebuckwheat
clivebuckwheat Posted February 15, 2011 Author Posted February 15, 2011 If I do not sysprep the reference image before I make the wim file and inject the drivers offline, after the restore using imagex I get a error of 0xc000000e. Any thoughts as to why?. This is if I DO NOT sysprep the image before creating the wim file.
ricktendo Posted February 15, 2011 Posted February 15, 2011 You have to sysprep and generalize your image to remove hardware specific stuff then you capture it
Tripredacus Posted February 15, 2011 Posted February 15, 2011 All images must be generalized (use sysprep) before capture.
