Re: Ghost 2002 Suggestions
Hi Roger, Install 1 machine, use sysprep on the windows 2000 cd and then shut it down make a ghost image and then copy the image to the other compaq / dell machines and run ghost again (remember the hardware has to be very similar, can't remember of the top of my head what can't change but hopefully your systems are the same) When the machine reboots with the new ghost image u will be prompted with the mini setup wizard - for computer name, workgroup/domain, password etc etc. -- Best regards, Gareth, MCP mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Thursday, September 27, 2001, 4:00:49 PM, you wrote: RA Hey all, RA My supervisors would like us to push Windows 2000 Images to Dells, RA Compaqs, and HPs down to our users' desktops.
