Multiple Deployment Issues

[qaisar]

SCCM 2007 SP2 R2 + MDT 2010 Integrated

 

OS being deployed is Windows XP SP3 (wim file)

 

Task Sequence (Created using "create Microsoft Deployment Task Sequence" wizard)

 

*****************************************************************************

Problem 1:

 

After the PXE boot I see this window

 

Title: Task Sequence Wizard

Message: The media is not password protected. Please click next to continue.

 

I have added SkipBDDWelcome=YES in both Bootstrap.ini and CustomSettings.ini but

it did not help, I still see this window

*****************************************************************************

 

*****************************************************************************

Problem 2:

 

Title: Error

Message: Setup was unable to change the password for user account Administrator.

Please enter the desired password again.

 

I have SkipAdminPassword=YES in CustomSettings.ini file and in Sysprep.inf file I have the following:

 

[GuiUnattended]

AdminPassword="p@ssword"

OEMSkipWelcome=1

OEMSkipRegional=1

TimeZone=020

AutoLogon="Yes"

AutoLogonCount=999

 

but I am getting the above mentioned error

*****************************************************************************

 

*****************************************************************************

Problem 3:

 

After I click "OK" on the error described in "Problem 2" I see the "Computer Name and Administrator Password" window where I should be able to rename the computer account but it only stays up for some seconds and I am unable to rename the default computer name "MINI-random" to my desired name.

 

In CustomSettings.ini I have SkipComputerName=NO and in Sysprep.inf file I have:

 

[userData]

;ComputerName=

Why doing all so difficult? Why not just using the buildin steps of SCCM for this?

I tried the SCCM built-in task sequence too but same results.....thanks

I just want to mention one more thing is that when I created my MDT Deploy task sequence, it asked for the settings package and I pointed it to the one that I had created before. This package only had two files "CustomSettings.ini" and "Unattend.xml" file. It did not have "Sysprep.inf" file, so I copied the sysprep.inf to this settings package folder and in my MDT Task sequence (under the Install\Apply Operating System Image" node) I manually typed-in the file name "sysprep.inf" as it was blank. SO I am not sure if this what is causing all these issues.

 

thanks

First off, since you're asking about XP, you may want to post in the XP forum instead of the Win7 forum. Secondly, have you taken a look at the guides provided on this site? http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?/topic/569-how-can-i-deploy-windows-xp-sp3-using-sccm-2007-sp1-part-1/
