Windows XP and multicast

[touimette]

With a windows xp image I am not given the option for multicast like when I capture a windows 7 image. Is there a way for me to make a windows xp image and make it so it will work with a wds multicast?

Hello,

This is by design. The check box that you see with a Windows 7 image is to remove the System Reserve partition. Once the multicast deployment takes place the System Reserve partition is replaced. In the case of Windows XP there is only one partition so you can just capture the image as normal. Please check out this link for more information on multicast.

Thanks,
