Thanks, I'm not able to get into the server at this point but I will check when I get connected. Thanks again, I really appreciate the quick feedback.

You say to check the system status, package status. Where is this located?

Alright so I have a client that is failing after it gets into the PE environment. I did the F8 then I mapped a network share and copied the x:\temp\windows\ ... smsts.log file. When I open it I get the following errors: Content location request for SIT00020:4 failed. (Code 0x80040102) TSPxe 8/19/2009 5:47:02 PM 1276 (0x04FC) Failed to resolve selected task sequence dependencies. Code(0x80040102) TSPxe 8/19/2009 5:47:02 PM 1276 (0x04FC) My question isn't how to fix this but the package ID is SIT00020:4. How do identify this package? I've searched in SCCM and I can't find it anywhere.

Interesting I've never tried to Sysprep that many times may be that's why i've never ran into it. I guess it's a good think I kept my original "build and capture" image as it has only been sysprep'd one time.

You say you will only want to sysprep 3 times or so? I've never heard this before. What are the reprucussions of Sysprepping a machine too much?

Thanks for this excellent post as it has gotten me to successfully replicate what you have done. One question I do have. Let's say after I deployed this OS I want to go in and add some applications change some backgrounds add customized features etc. What is the process of modifying the image then just doing a sysprep and capture as to save all my changes? Can you provide me with a broad overview? Thanks in advance I really appreciate it.
