Please see if yo can answer my question

Hi, my name is Nick

and I have implemeted SafeGuard Easy on the network for our laptops.
SGE installas like any other application on a mchine and then it reboots automatcally.
After reboot is done it encrypts entire hard drive, and changes the MBR. It also adds a pre-boot authentication so if that PC is lost or stolen you can't go to boot device list and BIOS settings without proper user ID and pswd.
Anyway, I have MSI on the network which is properly configued.
I created Group Policy and eveything works fine, but only IBM R5x series laptops been having issues.
Blue screen and reinstall by initilizing the Window Installer trying to repair / reinstall that same SGE.
It is not Group Policy or the batch file because I scripted it that way if it is installed to go to end.
I found a possible fix tha tneeds to have some registy changes on the insallation MSI package.
BUT I'm affraid if I change that original MSI on the network, that all of my client machines will try to reinstall / repair tehm self which would be a disaster.
In other words, will the laptops notice that the original MSI was changed and will they then try to reinstall / fix tehat application ?

Any help wpould be greatly appreciated.
Nick [:o]

If you do not hit redeploy you should be safe as registry entries are stored in the cached MSI. Should it have been updated files then a repair may have installed those from the updated source if missing or corrupted.
Rating comments in this legacy AppDeploy message board thread won't reorder them,
so that the conversation will remain readable.
