Release Note

Version 4.0.5.0 - Driver Revision 4-4

Monday, July 13, 2009

SUPPORT NOTICE: Windows Vista Service Pack 2 Support

• UIU v4.0.5 recognizes and officially supports Windows Vista SP2

Enhancement: UIU Discovery Tool support for multiple Windows OS versions

• UIU Discovery Tool is now OS version-agnostic and allows users to scan a system running one particular Windows OS version and use the resultant UIU Discovery Tool data files to prepare a Universal Image for any Windows OS version.

ISSUE: The UIU only provides a Windows Vista option to invoke Windows Welcome mandating entry of various data during the mini-setup process.

Symptoms:

• Manual entry of Computer Name, Username (User Account), Password (User Account), PC Location (Internet, Work or Home) and Windows Updates upon deployment due to invocation of Windows Welcome in Vista.

Resolution:

• Option added to UIU Sysprep answer file import for Windows Vista (Unattend XML) to allow users to specify the manual entry of Computer Name ONLY immediately upon the invocation of mini-setup.

ISSUE: During the UIU driver extraction process on base machines with specific video adapters, a video acceleration memory leak causes the UIU to halt.

Symptoms:

• UIU crashes during UIU driver extraction.

Resolution:

• Code modified to change the method of addressing video acceleration (software acceleration) to resolve conflicts with specific video drivers and the .NET Framework.

ISSUE: User-interface timing problem during the UIU MIMIC process prevents the UIU process from initiating.

Symptoms:

• The UIU process is not available (unavailable "Finish" button), if during the MIMIC scan, the "Next" button is clicked-on (to the Advanced Screen) before the MIMIC scan is complete.

Resolution:

• Code corrected to account for timing of Advanced Screen options with respect to MIMIC completion. Note: if user interface is clicked-on to the Advanced Screen prior to MIMIC completion, MIMIC will still need to be re-initiated to provide appropriate advanced options and display the "Finish" button.
