I am trying to sysprep my XP Home Toshiba. When I run
Sysprep the PnP and MiniSetup fields are greyed out and
not selectable. Why is this? Is it because it is Home?
I have run Syspre successfully many times on XP Pro.

Just to add one more thing. I ran sysprep and when the
pc starts up through the wizard I select where it asks if
I want to acept the licence. Then choose to skip how it
connects and then I get a partial screen, which is mostly
white, with the music playing but I cannot select
anything to move onto the part of the setup.

Video driver? Is there something that I need to add to
sysprep?

What a pain this is!!! I have three laptops that I need
to set up identically. I'll hate to have to do this
manually!
