Looking for Machine Imaging software
Hey all,
I am looking for some advice on system imaging software. I currently support around 150 machines and most of them are the same make and model. I have found myself having to rebuild many of these boxes and I would like to ask if there is a good piece of software that somebody might recommend, which would allow me to create one image and deploy that image to multiple machines. Here are a few things which might help:
1. Most machines are Dell's and don't require a CD key entered upon OS installation. I do have 20 or so that are not Dell's and do require a CD key entered with installing OS.
2. Office 2003 is installed on each machine and each copy has it's own individual cd key.
3. Most machines don't have floppy drives.
If anybody has any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it. I am offering the maximum amount of points for a good reply.
Thanks,
Mike
