Hello, I'm attempting to sysprep a windows 2003 STD (both 32 and 64 bit versions have same problem). The process generally works fine but the option to let the end user define their own administrator password seems to not take. The user is prompted to create a password but that password is not working after the mini-setup. Only the old password prior to system works. Is there something I'm missing?

Hi, The admin password must be blank before you sysprep the system. For more information, please refer to the following article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/200607/en-us Tim Quan
