I doubt it deletes the actual physical files (never checked).
It deletes the non-present devices from the critical device database and
services in the reg

Point I was trying to make was ImageX is merely an "imaging" application
with the feature that it can mount a wim such that you can modify it later.
BDD, SIM, WDS and all that jazz can drop in files t
"do the driver" part :)
Stop arguing with me, or I'll wait outside for you, heh .

CMIIW,
Doesn't imagex just create/mount images, and peimg /inf is what "injected"

Because of the SysprepMassStorage section it does not matter if the
machine has SCSI drives, SAS drives, IDE drives, or SATA drives.
IMO the general rule of thumb for applicatio

Sorry, missed the post before.
ImageX would work fine for "imaging" but it cant inject drivers into XP.
Sysprep will *very* much help you. It's designed to do just this

Any problems you may or may not have will depend on the tool you use to
slipstream.
Manually always works but can be a PITA to get all the steps right.
