For XP and 2003, see the TSM Client Manual for Windows instructions for ASR (Automated System Recovery). It's a MIcrosoft thing which TSM supports. Works, if you follow the instructions exactly.

Methods requiring a third party solution are acceptable. Solutions allowing a BMR to dis-similar hardware are preferable. Personally I view the need to do a BMR on a WinTel platform as an opportunity to bring up another AIX server, but that is yet another religious war. Thanks, Milton
