Re: Choose Input Languages during OSD

Thanks so much! The example you posted helped very much. Do you happen to
know where I can find a list of the different input locales and the
corresponding codes (041d:0000041d)? I'm specifically looking for the German
language and possibly Simplified Chinese.

I have another potential issue, any input would be greatly appreciated. My
organization is about to undergo a Windows XP migration. I have created an
OSD image using ZTI deployment. The computer that I sysprepped as the master
image had an "Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) PC" HAL type.
I have deployed this image to several different desktops and one laptop and
all have succeeded without any issues so far. These test computers range
from older PII computers with a "Standard PC" HAL to new P4 computers with
hyperthreading tech. I am very pleased with the success rate thus far, but I
also know that sysprep images are supposed to be HAL-specific. Which leads
me to believe that even though the image deployed successfully, some of these
computers may not be performing optimally, especially the new ones. If that
is the case, what type of problems might I expect to encounter with these
test computers? Do you have any recommendations for developing and
maintaining a single sysprep image? As you can see, I'm trying to avoid
maintaining multiple images.

Thanks,
