presented with a dialog box to choose a preferred language

[bscull]

Hi all

 

Sorry if this has been asked before, but my ninja googling skills have let me down.

 

I have been following the below how-to trying to customize deploying Language packs via a MDT 2012/SCCM 2012 SP1

https://www.windows-noob.com/forums/topic/3251-customising-windows-7-deployments-part-4/

 

I ran into a number of problems where the ZIPatches_DISM.log file was filling up the X: Drive (scratch disk) and I could not get it to relocated to the OS partition, but once I increased the scratch disk size to 256mb, that resolved that problem. The log file was close to 200mb (don't know why)

 

The issues I am having now, is the Language Pack (fr-FR) is installing but once Windows starts I am presented with a dialog box to choose a preferred language. Also the Time zone, keyboard etc. are not been applied.

 

I am using the below Unattend.xml and CustomSetting.ini file for my deployment. I am also setting the unattended Variable in the Task Sequence just before the MDT install Language Pack Offline.

 

Has anyone got any ideas how I can resolve this?

 

Thanks for all your help!!!
