Sysprep problems..

[mchipser]

We have started to have some issues with windows 7 sysprep..

We have created masters syspreped them and pulled an image (imagex) and everything works fine. (masters are on ATA / IDE mode) we then update the masters with the new applications and it fails..

We are getting an error of "Windows setup could not configure windows to run on this computer's hardware" everything i am finding this has to do the AHCI / IDE (ATA) mode conflicts.. The masters and all the new systems are already on IDE / ATA mode.

I am attempting to read the Panther logs but it seems these just are for the generalize phase of sysprep? Is there any useful information we can get from these logs, or are there other logs we can use?

Thanks for the help..

Logs are kept in two different locations.

c:\windows\system32\sysprep

c:\windows\panther

When looking at the log files, make sure to take note of the timestamp. This will help you find the correct files for whatever the problem is you are looking for.

I'm not sure it is related to the mass storage driver, since if it were incorrect you would get a STOP 0x7b error instead.
