Custom W7 install on 31 computers

[Krolik]

So I am helping with an IT project and we are trying custom install windows 7 on 31 computers. We are looking to be able to re-route some of the folders and have small things that we change to be changed on every computer with out having to go in and change it manually on all 31 computers.

Anyone know of any software or any good w7 installation scripts we could use to do this? if you need any more information then ask and I will try to provide. Thanks in advance.

What folders? Chances are between powershell and Group Policy you do that. If all the machines are identical hardware-wise and you are without a domain you could also image the machines

Easily doable with Windows Deployment Services and Group Policy.

Alright Thanks for the info. Have you guys heard of Snap Deploy? I think we are considering using that.

eh imo stay free and just use winpe, imagex, wds

This was exactly what I was going to say. WDS even with a custom image if needed.

Domain controller or group policies, with that many computers, pending on where they are going, i think a Domain controller is a must, it will save you so many headaches in the future
