Running HP t5740e WES 7 Thin clients. I am working on capturing our standard WES 7 image with SCCM to push out to all new terminals. I followed the HP & MS documentation on creating my Capture media USB drive. I log onto the Thin client with local administrator, and browse to the location on the drive to run tsmbautorun.exe. The wizard runs, and as soon as I click finish I see disk activity for about 5-10 minutes, system does not restart. I have taken the WES image down to bare OS, tried running the .exe from cmd line, nothing seems to get it to reboot. After 10-15 minutes, we reboot the terminal and it goes through the sysprep wizard to configure the system. We tried the same USB media on a Windows 7 laptop, and it performs as expected. The system rebooted itself, and started the SCCM capture. Looking at the C: drive after hitting Finish, I see the disk space go down about 500MB, but the drive still has over 1GB free. Can anyone shed some light on getting this to work? Thanks in advance.

Here a few guides for build and deploy a reference image: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff769921(v=winembedded.60).aspx http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff794956(v=winembedded.60).aspx http://scug.be/lars/2011/06/17/create-and-advertise-task-sequence-for-wes7-image-deployment-with-osd/My blogs: Henk's blog and Virtuall | Follow Me on: Twitter | View My Profile on: LinkedIn

Thanks for the reference links. My issues are not regarding building an image, but pulling an image created on a thin client up to SCCM. I seem to be following the proper procedures, yet the thin client does not complete the process. I have seen some other posts of HP thin client users utilizing WinPE and imageX instead of SCCM to capture the initial image. I think I may try that route today.
