Hi

I was just wondering if the sysprep process uninstalls drivers when it
does a -mini - reseal such as sound drivers etc, I think I read
somewhere it removes network drivers, DNS, IP settings and cleans out
event veiwer.

I'm just wondering as we have been imaging many different computer
platforms with the same image for awhile but have just started to get
one platform of PC's hanging at the sysprep screen. We copy the
appropriate driver folder into image at time of imaging and rely on
the inf string in sysprep to install them.

It does not uninstall drivers, however, if you specify -pnp it will attempt
to re-enumerate your PNP devices and install them during the mini setup.
