Another SysPrep Question

A

Amir M.

If I clone a hard disk to another hard disk in a different
machine without using SysPrep, then later would I be able
to configure the target machine to have a unique SID/GUID?

Thanks

SIDs are configured by the system, not a user. If decide to deploy an image
to multiple machines without using sysprep, then you'll need to use third
party software like NewSid or Ghostwalk.

As an FYI, sysprep is normally not used for cloning drives, but for saving
the drive to an image file.
