KACE Product Support

Hello,

Our company purchased a Kbox 2000 licence and I am preparing the Win7 deployment at the moment.

We are using Kbox 2000 version 3.2.31608.

I've set up an unattend.xml file to deploy Win7. We don't want to deploy with sysprep as we want an hardware independant deployment.

The problem I am facing is with computer name. I don't want to use wsname, I need the IT guy preparing the PC to be prompted for the computer name. I removed the computer name line from the unattend.xml, but it didn't help: no prompt for the computer name.

Furthermore, I get an error message on the end of the Win7 installation: "Windows could not parse or process unattend answer file for pass oobeSystem. A component or non-list setting is specified more than once in the answer file".

Here is my unattend.xml, I don't see any duplicate in the oobeSystem pass. Thanks a lot for your help :)
