Thanks, That did the trick.
Another workaround I found was to change the driver of the "IDE ATA/ATAPI
Controller" to "Standard Dual Channel PCI IDE Controller" on the Master PC
before the Image was taken.
After this problem was solved I got a new problem. The Computers (PIII's)
hung with a black screen and a white cursor was blinking on the top left of
the screen. This happened as soon as the computer had loaded in the image
and rebooted (i.e before sysprep processing/installation) This was caused by
problems in the HAL. By changing the HAL from "ACPI Uniprocessor PC" to
"Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) PC" on the master pc the
problem was solved. I think it is also possible to solve this problem by
anding the following to sysprep.inf in the [Unattended] section.
UpdateUPHAL=ACPIPIC_UP,%windir%\Inf\Hal.inf
