[OPLINTECH] Download Pick: Windows Automated Installation Toolkit

[JKENZIG]

Hi All, 
I have spoken about the new Pre execution environment (2.0) that will be
available when Windows Vista Releases and this weeks download pick it eh
Windows Automated Installation Toolkit which allows you to create a
Vista PE Environment. You'll need the toolkit, a Windows Vista DVD (just
released in TechNet plus if you get it) , a Technician Computer, Master
computer, a Floppy/USB stick and a blank CD/R disk to do this.
(obviously your machine will also need at least a CDR burner also). 
In Mark Minasi's latest newsletter in the Tech section portion at
http://www.minasi.com/newsletters/nws0701.htm Rhonda Layfield has wrote
an excellent article on how to make a PE boot disk. This is a MUST read
and print out and save article for any tech! 
The article does not include the link to the WAIK but here it is:

Microsoft also has a page set up for Vista downloads with many other
items of interest at:

t.mspx 
One in particular that people should be looking at is the Windows Vista
Upgrade Advisor. This utility tells you what you need to do to get your
computer ready for Vista. I can save people a lot of time... don't even
bother unless your workstation has at least 512 MB of memory. The
