Re: Windows System Image Manager

I had the same issue but have resolved it now.

The headings are very misleading, particulalrly the Input Locale and the
UILanguage settings.

I am bas3ed in Australia so will use en-AU as my example.

My assumption was that the InputLocale would be the keyboard setting which
for Australia is en-US.

In actual fact the keyboard setting ios the UILanguage.

So my settings are as follows

InputLocale = en-AU
SystemLocale = en-AU
UILanguage = en-US
UserLocale = en-AU

and in the sub folder SetupUILanguage

UILanguage = en-AU

Works perfectly. Hope you can use this as a guide as i am unfamiliar with IS
default settings

Here's a question. I am trying to set up Windows 7 on our WDS and i
have most of it down. However, one thing that is urking me during the
unattended install is that it is prompting me for the AUtomatic Update
selection. I have looked and looked and i can't find anywhere to set
this option. The system locale and time zone were also coming up, but i
think i have those solved now, thanks to this thread. ANy thoughts on
the Automatic Updates issue?

Thanks for the link, but couldn't find anything concerning the
particular issue. Has anyone come across this? The only thing it
prompts me for now is the Automatic Updates option. I would assume
there is a setting for the imageunattend.xml which would answer
this....please help

Hi--

I don't have experience with unattended image installs, and Malke and
several others here probably do. But I can't understand having installed
Windows 7 more times than I can remember, why there should be anything more
esoteric, other than clicking to accept automatic updates which you can
always tweak any way you want later, on the setup. I'm unclear precisely
what is giving you difficulty as to automatic update choices WDS or not,
(what are they???) that would be holding up your setup/install of Win 7.

And you can always set up a new topic over at the forum Malke linked
you to. Plenty of people there are very familiar with WDS.

Good luck,

CH
