Hello Tripredacus, This is for HOME use, at work I've experience with RIS/WDS and MDT but that's something different. I wanna build a fully automated install for my PC and laptop, that I can also give to my friends/collegues. The installation also needs to install some basic program like VLC player/7-Zip etc. but that part I cannot figured out. Greetz, Danny

Hello all, I want to start with making Windows 7 Unattended installs. My target is to build a complete automated install, that installs OS/Drivers/Applications and updates my Windows. Now I've tried the program 7Customizer and I can build a ISO where I've added some drivers/wallpapers and modified some settings. But this ISO doesn't install my applications etc. Which program do you advise me to start with? And are there some complete guides around there, where all parts of making a fully unattended installation gets explaned? Hopefully somebody can help me! Regards, Danny

How did you do that part with capture a image of a machine. Didn't found out how that's working in WDS :S

First of all sorry for the double post. Searching for some hours on Google now, but I can't find a way to riprep a pc or make a .wim file of it. Do you guys have tried this allready and how did you solve this? What I want to do is make a image of a fresh installed machines with all programs and good settings, and import this into BDD. Hopefully you guys can help me. Thanks in advance. Greetz, DX

Problem solved this problem you get with vmware. When I use a normal test pc as server and a normal client I don't have this problem.

Other Dutch guy here, I'm 23 being sysadmin @ at a big harbor company in several countries. BTW M0NKEYPWNAGE I would like to know some more about your experiences with WDS and BDD also setting up a test environment a.t.m.

Can't you make a tut? Think more people like to know how you fixed this.

Hello guys, We allready use RIS for a long time now with succes, but I thought it was time to try something new. I've set up a test environment in our company with BDD & WDS in VMWARE. I've installed BDD/WDS/WAIK on a Windows 2003 Standard server, and followed the Quick Start for BDD 2007 but I didn't use the Vista stuff but XP SP2. After I did all the steps from this guide I imported the winpe wim file in WDS. After this I made a new virtual machine and booted with F12, everything looked ok but I now get: What am I doing wrong, nothing happens I also like to know if it's possible to use WDS like the old RIS, we allways installed a pc and then runned Riprep. I couldn't find a solution to do this in WDS yet anybody knows this? Thanks in advance! Greetz, DX

BDD sounds new for me, is it difficult to set it up and manage it? Wich options in this program are better then RIS?

Fixed, copied the original Broadcom drivers to the flatimage now it worked

Only the newest Broadcom drivers work on this machine. When I modify the drivers (method of Broadcom) I still get the same error as before... :S Anybody got some suggestions?

Bilou_Gateux your driver also doesn't seem to work, this is so strange. I'm gonna make a new image and do it all over again :S

That's a other machine we are talking about it's a HP DC5700 SFF. This NIC is on the motherboard.

I've the same problem also get a blue screen afther the white bar... :S
