Make an image of the machine while it's in a workgroup. After bringing up the new computer (using that image), roll the SID while disconnected from the network, change the computer name, connect to network and join domain. This is all based on similar (or close enough) hardware, of course.

I just want the machine to boot straight to windows after deploying the image and then add it to the domain . I have tried using the sysprep.inf using WDS but it doesnt seem to take !! I am probably missing something ..
