With win7, 8 and 10 images if they are will be in a domain or you use bitlocker or sus at all they must always be sysprep'd to avoid duplicate SIDs. Having dup sids will break both these things. With scripted installs you do not sysprep you provide an answer file to automate the installation.
if I can access the laptop will I need to perform a sysprep and then attempt a scripted installation? or will I need to create an answer file before doing a sysprep - elonda.carter 8 years ago
You only sysprep the first time that you are trying to capture the image.
After that you choose the image from the deployments...... and add all the pre and post install tasks you want to add . No need for any answer file.
Don't forget to choose the "Use driver feed" in the image if you want to install all the drivers. - akmagnum 8 years ago
