To use
Sysprep as part of the disk duplication process, the following
requirements must be met:
• The master installation and the destination computers must have
compatible hardware abstraction layers (HALs). For example, HAL APIC and
HAL MPs (multiprocessor systems) are compatible, whereas HAL PIC
(Programmable Interrupt Controller) is not compatible with either HAL
APIC or HAL MPs.
• The mass–storage controllers (IDE or SCSI) must be identical between
the reference and destination computers.
• Plug and Play devices such as modems, sound cards, network cards,
video cards, and so on, do not have to be the same. However, any device
drivers not included in Drivers.cab should be included in the master
installation before you run Sysprep. Alternatively, make sure the
uninstalled drivers are available on the destination computer at first
run, so Plug and Play can detect and install the drivers.
• Third–party software or disk–duplicating hardware devices are
required. These products create binary images of a computer’s hard disk,
and they either duplicate the image to another hard disk or store the
image in a file on a separate disk.
• The size of the destination computer’s hard disk must be at least the
same size as the hard disk of the master installation. If the
destination computer has a larger hard disk, the difference is not
included in the primary partition. However, you can use the
ExtendOemPartition entry in the Sysprep.inf file to extend the primary
partition if it was formatted to use the NTFS file system.
Note If the reference and destination computers have different BIOS
versions, you should test the process first to ensure success. When
using Sysprep for Disk Duplication, Sysprep modifies the local computer
Security ID (SID) so that it is unique to each computer.
How to prepare a master installation for cloning
1. Install Windows XP on a master computer. As a best practice,
Microsoft recommends that Windows XP be installed from a distribution
folder by using an answer file to help ensure consistency in configuring
the master installation, so that iterative builds can be created and
tested more readily. See Unattend.txt for information about automating
Windows Setup using an answer file.
2. Log on to the computer as an administrator.
3. (Optional) Install and customize applications, such as
Microsoft Office, Internet Explorer favorite items, and so on.
4. (Optional) Install any device drivers not included in
Drivers.cab and not installed by the answer file.
5. (Optional) Run audit tests.
6. (Optional) If you want, create a Sysprep.inf file manually or
with the aid of Setup Manager. This file is used to further customize
each computer for the user and helps to set the amount of information
for which the user will be prompted during Mini–Setup.
7. Run Sysprep.exe. Make sure that both the Sysprep.exe and
Setupcl.exe files exist together in the %systemdrive%\Sysprep folder on
the local hard disk. When used, the Sysprep.inf also needs to be in the
same folder or on a floppy disk that is inserted when the Windows boot
menu appears.
- Important: if Setupcl.exe is not in the same directory as
Sysprep.exe, Sysprep will not work.
8. If the computer is ACPI–compliant, the computer will shut down
by itself. If not, a dialog box appears stating that it is safe to shut
down the computer.
9. Take out the system drive and follow the steps for duplicating
the system on other computers. You must have special equipment or
software for duplicating hard disks.
