Hi, I agree, one image, using the builtin variables you can target laptops / desktops with different applications. /Jörgen

It looks really nice! Thanks for sharing. /Jörgen

Hi, A little bit more information would be great. what error are you seeing? Regards, Jörgen

Hi, Sorry, now there is no feature either in WSUS or Configuration Manager.

Hi, If you have WDS and DHCP on the same server you must change which ports WDS responds to have you done that? it is discussed here: http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?/topic/1434-wds-error-and-dhcp-problem/ Regards, Jörgen

Hi, I agree with Peter, check the execmgr.log file or the status of the deployment, what does the script do? Regards, Jörgen

Hi, Are there anu errors in the System status on the site server? anything in the event log? I would start by checking that BITS is working on the IIS server and that no firewall changes are made. Regards, Jörgen

Hi, You need to use a sub-select query when you query for computers without a specific software. http://blogs.msdn.com/b/muaddib/archive/2008/10/10/sub-select-query-the-holy-grail-of-sms-collections.aspx

Hi, Which OS are you trying to install? Windows 7? Windows 7 x86 doesn't support UEFI at all and x64 has some limitations as well. Regards, jörgen

Hi, I have done it both ways, but I prefer to use a Application instead as you are in control of what happens and can display custom messages to users before e.t.c Regards, Jörgen

Hi, I assume you are using Windows 7, are you using the Copyprofile=yes setting in the unattend.xml file? of so the administrator profile is copied as the default profile at deployment time, that could perhaps be the issue. Regards, Jörgen

Hi, The Countdown timer is the way that SCCM 2012 handles reboots from updates, the countdown timer you are seeing from WSUS should actually be disabled to not have any unexpected reboots in your environment. JAson has written a great blog post about this. http://blog.configmgrftw.com/?p=89 Regards, jörgen

Hi, it is normally related to drivers, is it the same if you deploy another computer model? Regards, Jörgen

Hi, I haven't tried running MDT 2012 U1 on my Windows 8.1 actually but I would assume that you need to run MDT 2013 to get support for not only deploying Windows 8.1 / Server 2012 r2 but also using MDT.

Hi, It is probably a combination of your variables from UDI and MDT, try changing it to: <InputLocale>%Keyboardlocale%</InputLocale> < SystemLocale>%UserLocale%</SystemLocale> < UILanguage>%UILanguage%</UILanguage> < UserLocale>%Userlocale%</UserLocale> Naturally, just changing the above variable name won't work, but then I went ahead and changed the line that I was supposed to comment out in the UDIwizard.wsf from this: oEnvironment.Item("UserLocale") = oEnvironment.Item("InputLocale") to this: oEnvironment.Item("UserLocale") = oEnvironment.Item("UserLocale") have a look at the complete post here: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/16570dfc-c11c-4049-9529-1a51c867afcd/mdt-2012-udi-language-problem?forum=mdt

Hi, Here is a script you can use for that: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/vinpa/archive/2010/09/01/how-to-add-a-known-unknown-computer-to-a-specified-collection-during-os-deployment.aspx regards, Jörgen

Hi, When you use WSUS integrated with SCCM it doesn't download any content to the the WSUScontent directory you should actually download it from the internet, and the Deploymen Package source should be a unique folder for each package. Regards, Jörgen

Hi Used-Space only is a new feature in Bitlocker avialable inWindows 8 and server 2012. You can use it in Windows 7 if you use SCCM2012/MDT 2012 Update and encrypt the drives that way. MBAM is a part of MDOP, Desktop Optimization Pack, wich you can downlod from the Microsoft Volume Licensing site or MSDN/Technet subscription for test. Regards, Jörgen

Hi, I would put the command in a .cmd file, and use the %~dp0 variable which Points to the current path including a trailing backslash. In your example above putting the below text in a command line should Work fine. Setup.exe /s /path:"%~dp0config.txt" It will read the config file from the DP share directly or from the client cache based in your Deployment setting. Regards, Jörgen

Hi, That is correct you cannot use wildcards for tasksequence variables, I would suggest that you put it in a script instead and do you logic there and return a task sequence variable based on the result. Regards, Jörgen

Hi, I Always use a driver package per computer modell and use a WMI Query in the Task Seqeunce to determine which driver package to apply. Regards, Jörgen

Hi, There is no such feature in Active Directory but there are 3rd party solutions providing such solutions as add-ons to AD if I am not mistaking , a while ago since I worked with this. Regards, Jörgen

Hi, Have you tried adding setting the task sequence variable "OSDPRESERVEDRIVELETTER=FALSE" I Think that is the missing part in your setup. Regards, Jörgen

Hi, Yes booting from a Bootable media will Work without any PXE. look in the smspxe.log file on the server, is the computer already knwon in SCCM? have you enabled Unknown computer support on the bootable media? Regards, Jörgen

Hi, It is described here how to delegate that permissions.: http://blogs.technet.com/b/inside_osd/archive/2012/04/30/custom-role-based-administration-for-importing-computers.aspx Regards, Jörgen
