Identify the Task sequence advsertisement which are mandotry and remove the time schedule to make it as optional.

Mandatory Task Sequences are forced to apply without prompting for user to select.To aviod that,make it as optional advertisement,remove the time schedule for mandatory advertisements.

Seems that,you have WMI isses while conneting to remote computer.Check the firewall if it is enabled ? some more to check http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?/topic/2447-need-your-help-cant-install-sccm-client-or-software/

what does the Error says when you enter the Reproting point URL( http://SCCMservername/SMSReporting_sitecode ) in Web Browser ? ensure you have all the prerequisists installed (IIS Components) ,sometimes though reporting point installed successfully (from the logs) ,you might see some errors when running the reports.

Nope,since you have removed the package from the test machine(if the machine reported back to server on the successful removal of it) and as per the schdule,it should install automatically.You can try using right click tools to rerun the ADV on test computer. recomended is to use :"run with administrative rights" option since,this option forces the program to run under the local system account on the client computer.

Do you have Asset intelliegence enabled in your site since v_GS_INSTALLED_EXECUTABLE View Lists information about the installed software application executables on Configuration Manager clients found through Asset Intelligence. To get the list of Iexplore versions,use this syntax: select filename as "executable name",left(FileVersion,14)as "File Version",COUNT(*)as Total from v_GS_SoftwareFile where FileName='iexplore.exe' group by FileName,FileVersion More on Iexplore here

What version of WinPE are you importing Drivers to ? There is Compatibility issues with WinPE 2.0 version when importing drivers? Try reloading the boot WIM and what happens? If you sill see the errors ,you can add the drivers to the WIM image using DISM tool. like Dism.exe /mount-wim /wimfile:”C:\Temp\WinPE3.0x86.WIM” /index:1 /mountdir:”C:\Temp\mount” then inject the drivers dism /image:”C:\Temp\mount” /add-driver /driver:”C:\Temp\drivers\driver.inf /forceunsigned

the question is to be no Result isn't it ? Do you see any error or blank web page ? check if you have software inventory enabled for .exe?

try remove and install reporting point ? Did you see any error for the installation of reproting point role in the log?

what does the status messages say if you right click ,show all messges onto it? IS the reporting point role is installed successfully ? look at SMS reporting logs SMSReportingInstall.LOG and smsreporting.log in ur site server log files .

is the laptop is known or unknown computer ? I saw this error(BCD error failed) since i have not enabled the unknown computer support in PXE role when an unkown computer tries to boot through LAN. This is one cause of BCD error ,there might be other things to look at it.

look at this post here

In task sequnce,remove partition disk task and select the operating system to apply on which drive with options under apply operating system task

Does it say any thing/error when you click on okay or Run the reports ? also check if the reporting is working or not from the browser ? http://SCCMservernam...rting_sitecode/

Another post avilable from you on the same issue here I guess.

Another post avilable from you on http://www.windows-n...-sccm-2007-sp2/ .seems to be the same post on this issue. You can verify this Under the option "Select image you want to view:", switch between the different images (i.e., "1-1" or "2-2") that are contained in the WIM file. Determine which image, i.e. 1-1 or 2-2, contains the Windows installation. The image that contains the Windows installation will have information next to the fields "OS version", "Architecture", "HAL Type", and "Description". The non-Windows data image will not have anything next to these fields.

Seems that an incorrect image is trying to be applied during the "Apply Operating System Image" task. At the "Apply Operating System Image" task, an image that contains a Windows OS needs to be selected. If a data image is selected instead, the errors will occur. How are you doing the this step in applying Operating system. Image does not contain OS architecture information. Unable to verify that the OS will be compatable with the target machine.<BR>Unable to find a Windows system root at C:\. Element not found. (Error: 80070490; Source: Windows)<BR>Failed to find the system root for the applied OS. Element not found. (Error: 80070490; Source: Windows) check out this link for more information http://support.micro....com/kb/2023447

can you check the client logs to see if it has issues while running the machine policy ? are you able to disover the site code ? Also can you check the CLSID(F80A8D57-D338-43FF-A5E6-5D093EA80775) in component services--->My computer-->DCOM Config , if you have permission on this particualr ID with Local Launch and Remote Lanuch Permissions ?

can you try customising the console(if the all the nodes of SCCM will show in console) by selecting all the features to see if it comes back to normal ?

Did you see this Creating Custom Reports By Using Configuration Manager 2007 SQL Views http://www.microsoft...&displaylang=en. It should give you all the views with the column names to pick from.

take a look at this post here http://social.technet.microsoft.com/forums/en-US/configmgrsetup/thread/7c1b7fab-e999-4bf7-b6b8-f54506199e4d

as per i know,If the clients are in mixed mode(for clients in native mode,no approval is required), then they(SCCM clients) will still function normally, even if not approved. The only thing they can't do is use the Network Access account. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb633214.aspx
