Can you easily ghost a Windows 7 installation like you can XP?

Backup software (Acronis included) won't reset the SID, computer name or serial number (or static IPs in the unlikely scenario that you use them), so it's useless if these PCs are to be used on the same network.

The backup software should only be use before running sysprep and after running sysprep.
 
I had a look at imaging the drive with windows backup stuff but didn't really seem suitable, so done them one by one so far, luckily very bare systems in terms of software (just drivers and nero) so taking probably 50 mins to an hour per machine for both building it and software, not too bad. We don't have any other software which'd be suitable for imaging Windows 7.

Half way there anyway, 8 left to build.
