Topic: REQ: Create an universal WinXP image with DP integrated

Hola

Please forgive me for asking a most probably answered question and I have been asking around for help.

My present situation: I have many different workstations running primarily WinXP Pro & Server 2003. Multiple workstation mean all with different hardware: motherboard, NIC, VGA, audio etc.

My needs: I simply would like to know how to create an universal image of either WinXP Pro or Server 2003. When I install this image via some RIS method (I primarily use Acronis SnapDeploy for this part) and the OS boots into Windows I would like it to run an unattended mini-setup routine and auto installs most hardware drivers as possible.
For now I use the UIU application and Acronis TI to create the image. UIU driver package I have is December 2006, which is old and I would like to use like the driverpack driver sets instead included in my image.

I have read a lot elsewhere, but gosh my head is hurting from so many threads and suggestions from so many other sites. I think I am really confused as to what really is possible out there. I only wished that Acronis Universal Restore or Universal Deploy allowed for adding multiple drivers to images. With Universal Deploy it is limited to only Mass Controllers and HAL drivers and you CANNOT save these additional drivers when creating your master image. UR and UD allow you to search for additional drivers only when you are doing the image deployment.

I am impressed with driverpack's releases as they update often.

Thanks.
