Deployment Solution

I have scripted installs working very nicely, but I'd like to have the screen resolution set to whatever the attached monitor's native resolution is, rather than be forced to pick a solution as you have to in the job in DS 7.6:

A well-known trick in MDT is to set the resolution to 1 by 1, 32-bit, 60 Hz, thus forcing the monitor to resize...so I'm looking to use a custom unattend.xml.

Before doing this, I'd like a baseline unattend.xml; that is, whatever DS 7.6 uses by default for this scripted install. After doing a scripted install on a PC, I found an unattend.xml in C:\Windows\Panther.

My question is: were I to get this unattend.xml and modify it with monitor settings, would this do the trick? Also, what do I replace the variables with to make them adapt to whatever I'm installing? In other words, for

                <ComputerName>dept-example</ComputerName>

What do I use in lieu of dept-example?

Thanks!

Try here: "The answer file is located in [install_directory]\Program Files\Altiris\Notification Server \NSCap\bin\Win32\X86\Deployment\unattend.xml" See Appendix D of the Deployment Solution 7.6 User Guide.

This answer file did not work; it presented me with the first screen of an off-the-ISO Windows 7 Enterprise install. I'm looking at the unattend.xml found in C:\Windows\Panther on a freshly imaged PC as well as the instructions at https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/blogs/windows7-untangling-scripted-installs-sysprep-and-configuration-passes to see if those instructions will do the trick.
