Windows Geniune Advantage

by joe11701 . Updated 16 years, 5 months ago

Hello,
I am responsible to deploy workstations at my company. A question came up in a meeting about our images and WGA.
I set up an image using an OEM version of WINXP/SP2. as a result the product key is the same on all the pc’s i’ve imaged. how does WGA react to this? does it take enough info about the pc to make it unique, or does the product key trump all?

We are working toward a volume licensed image that will be SYSPREP’ed and imaged so further rollouts should be ok, i hope.

I’m not sure where to find the information i need to make a call on this.

thanks in advance.

Joe Ambrose
