What does Microsoft support for changing SID's

[Lee]

So when we image a desktop using Ghost, Sysprep, and
Windows XP Pro, what will Microsoft "Officially" support
for us to change the SID's? Ghostwalker? Sidchanger?
Thanks!

Lee,

Microsoft supports their SysPrep tool, which is located on the Windows XP CD
at \SUPPORT\TOOLS\DEPLOY.CAB.

Hi Lee,

Microsoft does not provide support for computers on
which Windows XP is installed by duplication of fully
installed copies of Windows XP. Microsoft does
support computers on which Windows XP is installed by
use of disk-duplication software and the System
Preparation tool (Sysprep.exe).

For more information please refer to:

314828 The Microsoft Policy Concerning Disk
Duplication of Windows XP

Sincerely,
