Using the latest sysprep and R2 SP2 - 2003 without any major problems for my templates. Only 2 things fail for me regional settings dont convert to Danish, and the HP teaming fails. But both of these are fixable in post setup scripts.

I didn't know there was a new Sysprep available. I'll give it a shot in the next few days.

FYI, If you are running Vista you will get an error during the customization section.

How are you getting it to work? I am using the latest sysprep with my 2003 R2 SP2 template, but when I create a VM from the template I am not able to customize.

Thanks
