I am trying to install a test image with IE10 slipstreamed in and getting an error "Windows could not parse or process unattend answer file [C:\windows\Panther\unattend.xml] for pass [specialize]. A component or setting specified in the answer file does not exist." I used an original Win7 Ent SP1 image + IE10 and then imported full source as if from original DVD / ISO. Then created a new sequence and problem still occurs.
I think it is being caused by:
<component name="Microsoft-Windows-IE-InternetExplorer" processorArchitecture="amd64" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<IEWelcomeMsg>false</IEWelcomeMsg>
</component>
Which I am not sure is a setting I set in MDT setup or a default setting? This setting has been removed from IE10.
I want to read data from a digital weigh bridge from Navision anyone out there with a solution.
Hi
I am trying to modify the default purple theme color of the Windows 8.1 installation with unattend.xml and the SystemDefaultBackgroundColor setting, but it does not seem to work. Windows gets deployed but not with the right color theme. Can anybody confirm that the SystemDefaultBackgroundColor works with unattend.xml?
I have a Windows 7 installation installed in Vmware work station. This is the master image which i use to deploy to client machines.
Normally i sysprep and capture with a task sequence to the server in the deploymentshare and import the image in the deployment share and make a TS to deploy it.
Before i make changes to the image the vmware installation is restarted and with the SHIFT F3 key hold the desktop is appearing and a sysprep box displays which i ignore. Then the changes are made for example installed Office 2010.
I had read on the internet that If install Office in a image he must be re-armed whatever that is... So i have re-armed after installation. At the end of the sysprep and capture TS a yellow screen appears that the deployment (is capture) is sucessfully but
with a message: unexpected return code whilerearming office 2010 RC=-1073425657
When imported etc in MDT2012 and deployed it to a client it looks like sysprep has not run because after deployment the sysprep and capture box is appearing, while i believe this had be run when starting the sysprep and capture in the Vmware image.
Secondly i must reactivate Office 2010 on that deployed image because Office has noticed a hardware change is the message but thats why i started the Re-arm option?
So 2 problems in one story maybe thay are connected to eachother maybe not i don't know..
What can i best do with the Office 2010? and the sysprep box that is appearing at the deployed image on the client, does this mean the sysprep is not running in the Vmware TS executed?

Hi all,
I am trying to reduce the amount of user intervention required for MDT 2013 to deploy a Windows 7 SP1 32 bit system from a Windows Server 2008 Standard box and I'm progressing well however, I've discovered that a wizard page won't skip. Specifically the one that asks you to confirm time, time zone and date settings which appears right before MDT progresses to installing applications.
Here are the rules I have configured for my deployment share:
[Settings]
Priority=Default
Properties=MyCustomProperty
[Default]
OSInstall=Y
EventService=http://x.x.x.x
SkipLocaleSelection=YES
SkipTimeZone=YES
KeyboardLocale=0809:00000809
UserLocale=en-AU
UILanguage=en-US
TimeZone=255
TimeZoneName=AUS Eastern Standard Time
From what I've read, if you use a Skip wizard page option, there are prerequisite settings you must configure such as the keyboardlocale, userlocale etc and I've also gone through the MDT help topics andd found a table that contains these settings however what I've found, is that although MDT will set the correct keyboard location and time zone settings, it still asks me to confirm it before proceeding to the installation of applications.
Am I missing anything? Does the order of the rules matter? Not sure what else to do.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
Hi ,
I am doing os migration from XP to 7 from MDT and after user state capture getting issues while applying the WiNPE on XP Machine.
Below errors are in LTIApply.logs. this issue on specific machines , on others machines i haven`t got such issue while migration.
LTIApply.log

I have already added the below things in my LTIAPPLY.wsf under CopyBootmgr part of //DeploymentShare\Scripts folder
If not oFSO.FolderExists(sBootDrive & "\Boot") then
oFSO.CreateFolder(sBootDrive & "\Boot")
End if
Please suggest if any other solution..

I'm trying to deploy Windows 7 to laptops with the lids closed. I send wake on lan to start the deployment and it works on some of the laptops (they are all identical) and the rest run part way and never complete until I walk to the laptop and open the lid (then the deployment resumes).
I am assuming the reason some complete and some do not is because the smart device that charges these laptops charges the laptops in banks to avoid overloading the power source and maybe the laptops do not want to continue after a reboot if they are not actively charging at that moment and the lid is closed.
Are there any special settings (power plan settings or BIOS settings) we should configure to ensure that deployment continues unattended whether the lid is open or closed and whether the laptop is charging or not?
Hi ,
I am trying to install couple of certificates during build and capture through running .cmd script from Task sequence as application. If I run command manually, it works fine but as part of task sequence it doesn't add certificated to the store. I have .cmd created as below:
@echo off
certutil -addstore -f -enterprise root .\abc.cer
certutil -addstore -f -enterprise root .\def.cer
Exit
script and certificate files are stores in the same folder and trying to store cer to 'Trusted Root Certification Authority' store for local machine. I am not able to figure out the issue with the step or script. Any pointers or alternative method will be appreciated to add certificates to store. Thanks
Regards.
Hello.
Lack of documentation about offline update is really weird.
I've installed WSUS, approved updates for Windows 7, made Package subfolder "WSUS_updates" at MDT 2013 and point it to c:\WSUS\WsusContent folder and got 160 updates as cab or msu files. Made MDT Selection Profile "WU" pointed to Packages\Wsus_updates.
After that I've add new step to task sequence (fully tested many times before) to Preinstall\Install updates offine, just after "Inject drivers", with "WU" selection, fully update MDT share even with images regeneration, replaced new images at WDS.
Test run - no one update got to OS during deployment!!
and Final step shows 0 errors and 0 warnings.
Really frustrated about this.
Need any advice.
thank you.

We are aware that SCM does not have a basline for Windows 8.1. I have seen Johan post about adding the code to the ZTIApplyGPOPack.wsf for support for Windows 8.1. Also do we need to update GPOPack.wsf located in \Templates\GPOPacks\Name of GPO PACK.
So what is the best approach for creating and applying a GPO PACK to Win 8.1?
Thanks
Hello,
when i deploy a custom image that i add the roles install Hyper-V, everything works fine, added the SkipRoles=Yes,
and the role Hyper-V is installed at the end of my new server 2012R2 Trial version, HOWEVER,
there's no icon that appears on the desktop, on the manager, the Hyper-V Manager option is not there,
all the Hyper-V related services are installed.
Seems there's a GUI issue, however in server manager the roles appear on the left side
I reboot, and yet nothing appears, i uninstall the Hyper-V role manually, reboot, re-install manually and the missing shortcuts appear.
Can someone provide me a hint to fix this, i've tested other roles and they also don't appear (DNS).
Thanks in advance for your replys
So I have no issues deploying WIN7 x86 & x64 images.
I am now trying to deploy x64 Vista. Followed all the steps outlined to deploy vista.
I have an image captured, when I create a new task sequence and add the vista wim to the task.
As soon as I start my task sequence I cant see the Vista task sequence.
Ive noticed that if I switch the install OS line to point to the vista wim file, that causes the
task sequence to not show on the list.
What am I missing, how can my x64 WIN7 tasks show but not the vista???
What am I missing???
So I just noticed that if I burn an x64 disc the vista task sequence shows up. Odd expecially since I have been using the x86 for both 32 & 64bit deployments.

All,
We have been for many years now successfully deploying Windows XP, Vista, and 7 using the OEM media supplied by Dell and the Key on the label of each PC. Basically, we accept new PCs from Dell and then use MDT to install to our spec the OS and software needed for deployment. The OS is always the OS that came native to the PC in question. With Win 7 we found that placing the product key in the script seems to work for installation but does't seem to work for activation. By this I mean we usually have to re-enter the key at the time of activation and all goes well.
Enter MS license changes. Apparently MS is not providing the Key sticker to OEMs any more and therefore the newest Dell PCs we receive do not have a license key for Windows 7. Without a key we're dead in the water.
There has to be away around this problem without having to by additional Volume or Retail copies of the OS. Anyone have any ideas?
I'm wondering if it's possible to make the local administrator's password hidden from our techs deploying the installation, and if possible, how? Currently, I add the local administrator password when I create a Task Sequence. Then when I boot the client machine with the LiteTouch ISO, it asks for the local administrator password to begin the installation. Our deployment techs are temporary summer employees, and it would be preferred that they didn't know the password. Is this possible? Is there anyway to automate the password in the deployment process so that the techs don't need to enter it in?
Also, how do I enable the local administrator account after installation? Is this done in the Unattend.xml, and if so, which pass should it be done?
My problem, all my WDS and MDT is configure correctly because I capture my reference with sysprep. I got my task sequence configure correctly and all my drivers folders are ready. But, i can't deploy on pc that got XP on it. I can on PC that got Windows 7 on it. Its wierd! After the deployment on XP pc, its reboot and on splash screen its a BSOD and reboot in loop. Its a problem of driver for mass storage but with an new pc with 7 on it, this error don't show up. And i try to wipe the HDD on the XP machine before deploy but the problem remain. Don't know what to try!

Hello!
after updating MDT2010 to MDT2013 I've got new menu with Features and roles just after Domain or workgroup page.
But all features or roles I've already configured at sequence task.
What is the "SKIP" combination for this step in cs.ini?
as always, I'm surprised about lack of documentation....
Thanks!
