Hello, We are trying to get SCCM to deploy a bare metal image to a new model laptop in our fleet. We have had issues adapting our existing WIM, task sequences and drivers to this model, so we have instead opted to build Windows XP on this machine manually, install required drivers and then use a SCCM USB capture stick to capture to a WIM file. I have completed this process and captured to a WIM file and I’ve deployed this captured WIM to another machine and found it needs refinement. I was hoping to power on the template laptop from which I captured my image and continue working on it, but instead I find that now when I try to boot into Windows, it seems to think Windows doesn’t exist and is running “mini setup” instead, prompting for a Windows CD key, etc. Do you know whether the capture process is meant to affect the template machine like this? i.e. Should capturing a given machine revert that machine to a ‘blank slate’ state?
