    First, perhaps I’m missing the search feature…

    I’m doing a complete reimage on 500+ UEFI Windows 8.1 tablets and laptops. (Lenovo Yoga 11e and TAB2) and I figured FOG would be a great way to get it going quickly since I can’t get them to boot with WDS.

    Adding to the complications (which I’m new to, but perhaps you all are aware of) is that I need to use UEFI for Windows 8.1 licensing / activation. So I don’t think I can do a MBR / BIOS install, I’m not sure if the licensing will work properly.

    I am able to get the system to PXE boot, and even capture an image so FOG is working.

    I’m starting from scratch here, I can make any changes needed to get this to work. What is the recommended method for imaging Windows 8.1 and getting licensed via UEFI?

      I apologize, the search feature on our (new) forum has been temporarily disabled. It sometimes crashes the site…

      anyways…

      Can you give these threads a quick once-through?

      For this endeavor, if you’re not using Trunk, I’d recommend getting it.

      Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!
