There are thousands of them. Seems like Microsoft should have answers. For that. http://edge.imgur.com/7msIS.png

Hi, This forum is for Configuration Manager related questions? I cannot see that your question is related to that, please try another forum. Regards, Jörgen-- visit my System center blog at http://ccmexec.com --

Hi Jorgen, I assure you that we are both extremely lucky! Purely by virtue of my confusion, in assuming that it would be obvious, that I wished to Configure an Operating System, and Deploy it. I admit I half-expected it might be Manageable, here. I will understand, if there is a better place for what I am hoping for, I cannot but note they would be bitter at not having your forum's name. I am lucky, but then I don't feel I have been. I will take, what luck I can get, to seeking to reverse the injustice that is the functionality I was unaware was a threat to me, by virtue of my unawareness of it's existence, until I was a victim of it. You might not know, that my understanding is rather Zen, for victims. You would understand how Zen it is, if you were placed in my position. Some people would be angry. Not me. I am lucky, because those people wouldn't be able to convince you that you were compelled to assist them, now that the confusion has been cleared up. There is some confusion now, as to whether it is even possible to Configure and Deploy an OS with your Manager. I am confused by your suggestion that there might be a better place for my hopes to be dashed. No doubt my confusion is my fault, it is partly due to my inability to see how an unnamed forum would be known to me. If it was named more aptly, and I knew it, I would probably be there. And here. I would be insane, to do anything but that. I understand that my failure to clarify my intention, and my motive for posting that here, led you to believe I was incapacitated, or unable to read. I merely didn't explain myself well, I understand how I didn't explain myself well. I will explain myself perfectly. I trust I have explained myself perfectly? I trust now that it might actually be possible to configure an operating system, and manage it's deployment with this program. I admit, it sounded too good to be true, as it was exactly what I understand that I need to do to reverse what has been done, to me. I had started to wonder, had I dreamed too big... I am thrilled that I both have confirmation that it is possible, and by sheer miracles I don't deserve, I even have bonafide Microsoft associated contributor, who I understand is not employed by Microsoft? I am lucky in more ways than you, your generosity in enjoying giving support freely for a company who enjoys the fact that if you make a mistake, they are not liable. You must know something I don't. And you would have been itching to tell me, but considerations of propriety and accurate sub-forum assistance (I can only imagine how your helping the other contributors' guys, could put you in an awkward spot). Sharing expertiese, can get very political, I imagine. We're in luck! I'm your guy! Isn't that grand? You can freely assist me without fear that your contributing will make Microsoft liable. Some people would consider that impossible. No matter how poor your advice wouldn't be, they would believe you couldn't make them more liable, if you were paid, and speaking for B Gates, himself. I don't see the world in deluded ways. I don't know about stuff like that. I'm a simple victim. Not looking to blame. Heck, I'm sure it's my fault, somehow. Say, do you think you might share some of that claimed expertise with me? You have no idea how lucky I am, to actually find a volunteer who is genuinely giving away advice freely. You have no idea what a bad name, those other guys are giving to your good name. It makes me outraged, for you. You would be outraged, if you knew. They are lying to people, refusing to explain why are lying and claiming they are experts and then abusing polite corrections of the fact they lied. If I didn't know better, I would wonder if they were really in it for the giving and the contributing. Only because saints - hallelujah - are miraculous. I'm not so stupid that I would mock a micracle, when I needed one really badly. Thank you for being that miracle. It would be too hilarious if you were just like them, and less into the sharing as into the spamming and the manipulation of their confusion about Microsoft-'volunteers' who believe in Microsoft, that much. I would love to believe, but I have had a different experience with them. I would love to learn I was not made a victim by their unexplained and Oh My God inherenbtly explainable 'oversights'. Please convince me that you are not merely just another fraudster. I know that you are not. You would have just ignored this thread, otherwise. Clearly, as volunteers, it's not all give give give. I have seen some gratituious taking. It's probably not important, that I don't see any giving, yet. Clearly I'm just that lucky. You were saving it for when I needed it most. You had me worried, for a moment. I think I couldn't take it any longer. Phew. I don't want to badmouth those colleagues of yours, but you would not believe what they are doing, if I told you. B Gates would be horrified, surely. No one who gives away 50 billion, would be impressed at the kind of value they are giving away, not quite speaking for Microsoft. But then, it's a little bit confusing, for someone like me. I'm able to be just as confusing, as you have unfortunately seen. I hope I have been convincing of my good faith that you are not like them. That would only suck, for me. I think, that I have to hope for the best, I don't think I can take much more of the sucking. Please help me Configure an Operating System with the Manager so that I can deploy it. I will only then have the memories of the sucking and your generosity in tempering it at the 3 month mark. That's as good as it gets, for me. Please, help me with my dreams!

Hi, This forum is for Configuration Manager related questions? I cannot see that your question is related to that, please try another forum. Regards, Jörgen -- visit my System center blog at http://ccmexec.com -- lol. Do you think I might bother you for a link to where I might be able to ask or pay someone to tell me how to Manage the Configuration of a Deployable Operating System? Sorry for my mistake, in thinking this was the right place. Clearly, there are better subforums? Will I find a clue at your System centre blog?
