Sysprep USB Options Advertisers


I use Ghost & sysprep to create images of PCs. Many new PCs do not have
PS/2 ports and come with USB mice and keyboards. The problem that I am
having is that the USB mice and keyboards to not work until the first "next"
button is pushed to allow sysprep to load the drivers. Does anyone know how
to make the keyboard and mouse reconiziable from the verty begining? I have
been simply inserting a add-on PS/2 card to get around this, but that takes
some time. Does anyone know how to fix this??

Thanks!

Eric,
I know this isn't any help, but.... I've imaged & syspreped a number of
Dell Dimension 3100s that are USB only without trouble.

Eric, please post your sysprep script (minus your private information like
passwords and product key). It may be possible to make the mini setup skip
the the "next" button section all together. We have gx280 and gx520's here
and this is how we avoid this issue.

Re: Sysprep USB Options Advertisers


Below is the sysprep.ini info. I don't want a fully automated sysprep
because I want to be able to change the PC name to match our naming
convention. I would appreciate any help skipping the initial "Next" and "I
accept screen". I selected these options when I ran the sysprep.ini wizard,
but the windows appear each time anyway. ?? (sysprep XP SP2 is used)

Re: Sysprep USB Options Advertisers


Hey Eric I noticed a couple of things that might give you trouble. When you
reboot after sysprep the minisetup should start right where you are asked to
enter a computer name. ALL other data should be provided. "***" represents
changes that I have made to your script. Look it over and see what you think.

[Unattended]
OemSkipEula = Yes***
InstallFilesPath = C:\sysprep\i386
TargetPath = \WINDOWS

[GuiUnattended]
EncryptedAdminPassword = NO
TimeZone = 20
OemSkipWelcome = 1***
OemSkipRegional = 1***
AdminPassword= "whatev"

[UserData]
ProductKey= whatev
FullName = "whatev"
OrgName = "whatev"
ComputerName = ***
[TapiLocation]
CountryCode = 1
AreaCode = whatev

[Identification]
JoinDomain = whatev
DomainAdmin = whatev***
DomainAdminPassword = whatev***
[Networking]
InstallDefaultComponents = Yes

[Branding]
BrandIEUsingUnattended = Yes

[Proxy]
Proxy_Enable = 0
Use_Same_Proxy = 0

Num 2:
You have to switch Sysprep (for WinXP and 2003)into silent mode by using the command [c:sysprepSysprep -mini -reseal -quiet].

Kind Regards,
Odie Pastunik
 
Num 1:
I experience the same issue as the original poster. We image GX280's, GX270's & GX620's. The GX280's & GX620's only have USB inputs. When booting the system for the 1st time after imaging it, the USB devices do not resond.
I do not know where the sysprep.ini file comes into play. I build the image, run sysprep.exe, then insert a Ghost Boot disc supplied by my predecessor, run the Ghost Cast server to accept the image. When imaging the systems, I run the Ghost Cast server to broadcast the image, turn on the PC that needs imaging with the Ghost Boot disc in place. I searched the sysprep folder, the boot disc & the imaged system for sysprep.ini & cannot find it.
Do you have any pointers for me?
