How i can create a Universal Image of Windows Vista which will work on all the Desktop Models.

I want to create 2 universal images one for laptops (Dell, Toshiba, HP, Fujitsu Siemens) & one for Desktop Models like Dell, Acer, HP.

Is there anyway of doing it ???

Vista is very good at picking up new hardware, it's like we're back in the 9x days again. I installed vista to a VM, made a ghost image of it and restored that image to a physical machine and after taking some additional time on first boot it ran like it was installed on that machine directly from the cd.

after install and configuration do

"sysprep.exe /generalize /shutdown"

reboot from winpe capture the install using wim and deploy

I read something that the HAL in Vista is hardware-independent, unlike XP. It should be possible...
