Radimus Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 in Win2k, all of my desktops used "Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) PC" HAL, and my sysprepped image worked on all of the desktops and laptops.Now that I am migrating to WinXP, some of the HALs are detected as "Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) PC" and others are detected as "ACPI Uniprocessor PC"I have built sysprepped XP images (from the same unattended XP CD) on both types of machines, and neither will work/boot from the other HAL type imageThis doc says I am pretty much SOL http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=309283Has anyone managed to work around this?
