[INDENT=1]There will be some small updates to this, I’ve found that if FOG is installed before syspep then while the DP install tool is running it can cause the machine to restart in order to rename/join to domain. I will update tonight with my solution.[/INDENT]

I also found this problem but added to the start of the DP_Install_Tool.cmd, Net stop “Fog Service” which will prevent the machine from restarting before it installs all drivers needed and then added "net start “Fog Service” to the end of the script to start fog again which then within seconds renames and reboots the machine. Its working very well for me. Thanks again to andyroo54

Thanks andyroo54 for your guide. I have used most of your guide but added my own bit at the end which some people may be interested in.

Loved the idea of the SAD2 for drivers but to keep image size down and to add drivers without having to update the image I did the following. I injected all Windows 7 ethernet drivers from driverpacks into my image when offline before uploading to FOG only adding around 200mb to the image file using dism inject see [url]http://www.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Create_a_windows_7_image_for_many_different_hardware[/url] (near the end) for more details.

I then used your script to call SAD2 but from a network location on first boot using the setup scripts, so instead of START C:\Drivers\SAD2-111118\DP_Install_Tool.cmd I used START [URL=‘http://fogproject.org/forum/file://nas/Drivers/SAD2-111118/DP_Install_Tool.cmd’]\nas\Drivers\SAD2-111118\DP_Install_Tool.cmd[/URL] . I setup a basic share with no authentcation on my NAS so any machines could read the files. If I ever need to update the driverpacks I can do all of this without ever touching the image. Hope this helps someone.

Cheers

Bob
