Multiple XP SP3 image deployment issues

[qaisar]

SCCM 2007 SP2 R2 + MDT 2010 Integrated

 

OS being deployed is Windows XP SP3 (wim file). This image is created manually and sysprep is run before manually capturing the wim file.

 

Task Sequence (Created using "create Microsoft Deployment Task Sequence" wizard)

 

*****************************************************************************

Problem 1:

 

After the PXE boot I see this window

 

Title: Task Sequence Wizard

Message: The media is not password protected. Please click next to continue.

 

I have added SkipBDDWelcome=YES in both Bootstrap.ini and CustomSettings.ini but

it did not help, I still see this window

*****************************************************************************

 

*****************************************************************************

Problem 2:

 

Title: Error

Message: Setup was unable to change the password for user account Administrator.

Please enter the desired password again.

 

I have SkipAdminPassword=YES in CustomSettings.ini file and in Sysprep.inf file I have the following:

 

[GuiUnattended]

AdminPassword="p@ssword"

OEMSkipWelcome=1

OEMSkipRegional=1

TimeZone=020

AutoLogon="Yes"

AutoLogonCount=999

 

but I am getting the above mentioned error

*****************************************************************************

 

*****************************************************************************

Problem 3:

 

After I click "OK" on the error described in "Problem 2" I see the "Computer Name and Administrator Password" window where I should be able to rename the computer account but it only stays up for some seconds and I am unable to rename the default computer name "MINI-random" to my desired name.

 

In CustomSettings.ini I have SkipComputerName=NO and in Sysprep.inf file I have:

 

[userData]

;ComputerName=

I also tried the SCCM built-in "Client Task Sequence" but same results

 

thanks

well, I resolved two of my issues (Problem 2 & 3).

 

The fix for problem 2 was to disable the "Apply Windows Settings" under "PostInstall" of the TS and uncheck the "Use an unattended or sysprep answer file....." option under the "Install/Refresh Only/Apply Operating System Image"

 

The fix for problem 3 was http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?/topic/1133-setting-computername-during-deployment/

 

 

So the only unresolved mystery is problem 1. I tried almost everything mentioned in http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/configmgrosd/thread/bf4b9f5b-0d65-4668-8eb6-167aa6262e9d but nothing worked...
