Most welcome. I am a HUGE fan of the SOSI.
So much better (IMHO) than imaging.

Right I have used the Scripted OS Install wizard to create the job. Pretty
standard stuff, OS is Windows XP Professional, Language set to English,
Automation pre-boot is set to Default Automation (Auto-select).
What's your Default Automation platform (DOS or WinPE)?

Quote:
Windows XP SP3
is the OS source files.
Hallelujah.

Quote:
The DOS disk image is FAT32.IMG. I thought this
partitioned and formatted the disk? Do i need to format before the scripted
install then?
Nope, that should be enough.

Quote:
I also appear to have 2 boot.ini menu options, one of them
being "Microsoft Windows XP Professional" and the other one is "previous
operating system on C:" Not sure why i am getting this, is this because the
drive wasn't formatted
Yup, in my experience, if the drive is formatted in FAT/FAT32 and the install launched from DOS, you'll get a second boot.ini option. Don't worry, there are ways around that.

OK, two small things:
1. Display --> BitsPerPel=4
4bpp is 16 colours. Try:

BitsPerPel=16
2. You're missing the Unattended --> OemPnpDriversPath section. Have you added extra drivers to the deployment point?

I'll have to find another PC to test my SOSI on, will let you know if it works on that.
Thanks again.
Good luck.
