Windows 7 Deployment – Deployment Step 3: Create the Reference Computer (Part 6 of 8)

In this screencast we’ll continue to go through the Windows 7 deployment process using the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit 2010.  Now we have installed the MDT 2010 and the WAIK for Windows 7, our next step is to configure the the MDT Deployment Workbench.  The first step is to create the deployment share, followed by importing Operating System files.  We’ll also look at how you can include out-of-box drivers, new drivers that aren’t on the source DVD.  Finally we’ll create a Task Sequence to deploy Windows 7 to a reference computer.
