Matt, I might try your method. I've been searching all day on forums and other sites, and I'm thinking that Windows 7 has made this almost impossible. >From what I have gathered, you have to run sysprep, deployment kits, etc... before you can even get this to somewhat work. All I want is for anyone that logs into this Windows 7 computer gets the correct Icons, settings, startmenu, etc... It's not like I'm asking for some huge task.. AGGHHHHH, I'm really not liking MS at this point.

We went in and setup a generic user account and set it up the way we want things. (Icons, favorites, app settings like word, etc..). With Windows XP, we simply copied that profile to the default profile. With Windows 7, the copy to is greyed out. How's everyone fixing that? We really don't want to use Roaming profiles if possible.
