Have you tried the file and transfer wizard or Windows Easy transfer as its called in Windows 7 and then just clone the others Sylvia MacKenzie > In terms of your GPO changes, were those to take advantage of new features in Win7 to lock down or did you have to recreate all of your GPO's because they no longer worked? Are you using W2K3 or W2K8 for your DC's? :) > > > > > > Thanks, > Gretchen Garcia > > MCLD IT Services > > [log in to unmask] > > http://www.mcldaz.org > > > > "There are 10 types of people in this world.

What fun stories and pitfalls can you share so that I may avoid them? ;) We are currently running XP, SAM and Deep Freeze on a domain structure with some GPO's to lock the kids out of a variety of things. ;) > > > > > > Thanks, > Gretchen Garcia > > MCLD IT Services > > [log in to unmask] > > http://www.mcldaz.org > > > > "There are 10 types of people in this world.
