Hello Michael,
Create the Image with on an APIC ACPI single processor system.
You can then deploy the image on a APIC ACPI multi processor system and
have the system detect and install the processors.
However the system still both have to be APIC ACPI.
If some of the system are PIC ACPI, you have to create an additional image
for PIC systems.

There unattended settings were available for Windows 2000 to go from a
single to a multi processor hal.
With Windows 2003 and Windows XP the OS should detect the additional
processor and make the change.


This article talks about hal options:

Hi Darrell,

Thanks for the reply. The issue was/is pic vs apic. My older images are pic
based and do work on newer apic hardware. Thanks again.
