Hi, I have has no issues with running USMT from a task sequence started from Win PE. However if I start the task sequence from e.g XP USMT does not work. If I check the loadstate.log it looks like it isn't finding the user profile. I want the ability to run task sequences from XP so I can use Application Discovery. Does USMT work differently when the task sequence is initaited from XP ? Thanks

how do you run your USMT?? hardlink, SMP, MDT integrated, straight SCCM, customized ???Michael Petersen http://blog.coretech.dk/mip/

its a standard usmt package as part of the UDI Task Sequence which I understand is hardlink.

any customization to the .xml files?Michael Petersen http://blog.coretech.dk/mip/

what does your scanstate.log say?Michael Petersen http://blog.coretech.dk/mip/

unfortunately the scanscate.log is no longer there. I will do a test build now to see what happens.
