Simple UK Keyboard Question
I have been reading around the forums and although several people have asked a similar question they always seem to need something more complicated. All I need is to be able to set all my machines that are built to the UK location and keyboard type. The other posts seem to refer to different machines picking up different locales etc.I'm sure the first time I played with OSD the machines built with the UK keyboard, so I assume I have missed a step this time, but I can't work out what!So, simple question, how do I set all my machines to build so that they are set to the UK keyboard?

if youre running XP you could try this then you could use collection variable s on your Deployment Collection and call them SystemInput 0409:00000409 SystemLocale 0409 InputLocale 0409 Timezone 015 UserLocale 0409 UserLocale_DefaultUser 0409 obviously replace the values above with the matching ones for UK if you use ztigather and zticonfigure scripts (from MDT integration) then you won't need to add sysprep.inf variables such as SystemInput=%LAB_OSDSystemInput% My SCCM Guides http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?showforum=44

In my case, seeing as I don't need to use multiple Locales, can I just set a sysprep.inf file as below?[RegionalSettings] SystemLocale=0809:00000809 SystemInput=0809:00000809With 0809:00000809 being the UK English code?Alex

sure thing, try it ! (but make sure that you have those changes saved in sysprep.inf in your Sysprep Package (update the distribution points for the package after making the change)My SCCM Guides http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?showforum=44

I tried the above sysprep.inf file and it didn't work. I'm still stuck with the US keyboard settings!However, what I did observe is that the machines unicode settings were UK, and it had added the UK keyboard, just not set it as default. Regional Options were still set to US also.Any ideas?

I didn't use timezone, as I assumes ConfigMgr would add that seeing as it 'asks' for it when you're setting up the task sequence.All I had put in was SystemLocale and SystemInput...I assumed (wrongly) thatthose values would be enough,I have now changed it to:[RegionalSettings] SystemLocale=00000809 SystemInput=0809:00000809 UserLocale=0809 InputLocale=0809:00000809 UserLocale_DefaultUser=0809 InputLocale_DefaultUser=0809:00000809I am testing it with those as we speak, its about 25% into the process, I'll let it finish and update on here!

a Timezone collection variable value will override the task sequence valueMy SCCM Guides http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?showforum=44

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but are you using this sysprep.inf during 'build & capture', or deployment?
