The D-Spot (The Deployment Spot)

While deploying my first Windows 7 client with SCCM 2007 R2 SP2 I would receive a failure when the sysprep task would start. However the cause for this error was not due to my sysprep package but my SCCM client package. I had forgotten to create a new SCCM client package to use in my task sequence after installing SP2:

New package from definition -> select “Configuration Manager Client Upgrade”
