Enterprise Deployment for Windows
Windows XP DVD image
The deployment image is for a clean installation of Microsoft Windows to a PC. The purpose of the image is to consolidate all the various required software (from different media) to one central source. This elimilates disc swapping and makes automated/unattended installation possible, thus minimizing installation time and human attention. The image shall be updated at least every 6 months.
