SLMGR Broken After Sysprep to New Machine

[justpooped]

Hi Yall,

I made a golden image from my reference image (I rearmed office and windows, (I ran ospprearm and set rearm to 0 before I syspreped)

Here's the problem:

When I drop the image on a new machine it's unable to run the commands to activate using slmgr and ospp ..I actually get a windows script host error saying there's an error in slmgr.vbs

did I miss something here with the image building process?

It runs fine on the machine I built the image on (after sysprep)

Any Ideas??

What is the exact error you get?

Sorry for the late reply but my error is this

---------------------------

Windows Script Host

---------------------------

Script: C:\Windows\system32\slmgr.vbs

Line: 1333

Char: 5

Error: Permission denied

Code: 800A0046

Source: Microsoft VBScript runtime error

I just don't understand why this is happening when on the machine I built the image on slmgr runs fine in the post script (as administrator)

Nevermind I figured out the issue I was having.. was a networking issue being unable to contact M$ activation services..
