I am currently trying to get a base image of windows 7 on some HP Deskpro 600 G1 SFF. My issue is once I get into WDS, the USB ports do not work for mouse or keyboard. I have to revert back to PS/2 keyboard and mouse to get the computers to work, it is quite inconvenient.
To summarize, I have 5 HP Deskpro 600 G1 SFF that once they get into WDS the USB keyboard and mouse stop working and I have to use a PS/2 keyboard. Once Win 7 is installed than it all starts working again. I have never had this issue before with any other computers.

Thank you in advance
Pat

Never mind, I figured it out. I don't have the proper drivers setup for the base windows install. Apparently these computers are only shipping with USB 3.0 controllers (which apparently are backwards compatible to 2.0) and the correct drivers do not get installed. It is a pain to use, but I will keep a PS/2 keyboard handy,
