Windows Server Forum / Virtual Server / December 2004Sysprep
Hi, has anyone used sysprep and what command lines did you use? I'm getting a blue screen after the minisetup. I have built up our production scripted Windows XP (SP1) build in the virtual server and it is working fine. I install the VM additions, reboot and then run sysprep with the following switches. sysprep.exe -mini -reseal -bmsd (and also without -bmsd) Sysprep completes and then after the restart, i get the mini setup screen ok and then complete that, it reboots as normal. I'm getting a blue screeen after that. Running safemode shows that the boot is stopping at AGPCPQ.sys. I have looked through all the doco's and some google searching and can't see any gotchas with sysprep. | I have built up our production scripted Windows XP (SP1) build in the | virtual server and it is working fine.

I do it quite often, saves the hassle of installing it later, and is a little bit of the reason for Sysprep (install everything that you want on the machines that will be produced, and then image the main computer)  Signature--Jonathan Maltz [Microsoft MVP - Windows Server - IIS, Virtual PC] http://www.visualwin.com - A Windows Server 2003 visual, step-by-step tutorial site :-) http://vpc.visualwin.com - Does <insert OS name> work on VPC 2004?
