Hi is there a way to increase the client cache. it is set to 5120 and i want to increase that. i already put SMSCACHESIZE=8000 but it seems does not apply.

for god sake anyone answer this question. Is it too hard or too stupid to be answerd ?????. what i have tested is that i deleted everyone from the share the only problem is that SOME application failed to install. these application started installing immidaitely when i shared with everyone again.

It works now. i just deleted the package and created it again. dont know why but it works

Hi everything is working fine for me. OS deployment, Drivers And application deployment. One thing that i didnt secceed with is changing the keyboard language. i already created a package with xml file "as shown in the attahed file" and added it to the Apply Operating System. Regards

Hi Do i have to share sources with Everyone ? will everything works normal if i give the Administrator and the network share account access to the sources directory ??

well i have another question for you if you have time. i am deploying an application and it works on the client after deployment but the SCCM client shows FAILED while it is deployed without errors. do you have any idea how to fix this.

it is solved as i found the error in the path to the installation folder. there are two setup.exe one is in the root and the other is inside a folder in which it is called setup too. i made the unattend.ini and i pointed it into the setup.exe that is in the root. i pointed it into the other setup file and it worked thanx anyway.

as i said before it is Visual Studio 2010 and there is no log. i dont event get any errors in the eventvwr on the client computer. on software center the application status says installing and i can see setup.exe is running in the process manager and it just hangs nothing happens. any spectial place you want me to look into ??

Hi i succeeded in deploying many application until now "firfox, office 2010, 3dsmax, ...." but the only application that does not work for me is the visual studio 2010. i made the required unattended.ini file but it does not work. all i want is full installation but it hangs with 1603 error on the client. any help will be greatly appricaited

i think my reply to Lucid will answer some of your questions.

I cannot use the Capture task media on my machine coz SCCM will sysprep the machine for me and the image is already syspreped and ready. the sysprepSPAM! is already configured with many many many configurations and i have to do the sysprep myself. I tried actually to use the caputre media wizard but it faild. didnt check for errors i will do and get back to you to see what errors show up. am using an old d530 and am sure the network card is working as on pressing F8 i can see that the machine gets an ip address. i used vmware also. anyway you will be hearing from me soon.

Hi the boot image starts to load then the sccm process starts then everything stops for a while 10 to 20 sec and the computer restarts. am deploying windows xp image that i made with imagex. it is a fully functional os the is syspreped to work on many machines. am deploying it into a test machine trying to figure out how to configure the deployment proccess as this is a test server that am working on. i can get into windows as the machine has os on it and see the log file " attached to this post". the process of making the image on the sccm server as follows. i copied the image into the sccm image share then made a new operating system image choosing a boot image. then made a task sequence and edited the task sequence to disable the network settings and windows settings leaving only the first three "boot into winpe, format hard disk, deply the image". i also followed the deployment guide on the windows-noob for "build and capture" windows xp but i get the same result. please find attached a copy of the pxe log file. regards smsts.log

first of all thanx for your reply. i got surprised actually to get an answer as i gave up. i completely agree with you but this image is specially made with many old programs and above that it contains Novell Client. am working on a new image but what i want for the current time is deploy this WIM file with sccm. i tried loading it but the boot image loads then the computer restarts by it self and the process continues forever.

Hi I have a special Image of XP that i made with ImageX. this image works on about 15 laptop model. It is a ghost image actually but i made a WIM file with imagex before it starts into windows. i wonder if i can deploy it with SCCM in a way or another. greatest regards.

Hi I just got it solved by going into system center > Site Database > Computer Management > Operating System Deployment > Expanded Boot images then Expanded either boot image x64 or x86 and right click on Distribution points and chose New distribution point and followed the wizard. after that i got the distribution point on the capture media wizard.

Hi I followed the nice and easy guide on the site to setup the SCCM 2007 and it works like charm BUT when i try to create a capture CD image to capture an image of my machine i get no distribution points. what i do is right click on the Task Sequence then choose Create Task Sequence Media. On the next windows i choose Capture Media then give it a name but on the next window i dont see any distribution points in the drop down box. Site status is green and component status is green too. any help will be greately appriciated. Regards to all
