SafeGuard Easy 4.30 and OSD in SCCM

I'm having some problems with SGE in a OS Deployment, XP to Win 7 in SCCM.

The drive is to be formatted during the OSD task sequence and no data on the drive is to be saved. I've prepared the WinPE image with the filter drivers as described in article 66019 and prepared a .cfg file that disables warning messages to show when MBR has been changed and disables the restore MBR option.

The new image seems to get applied correctly and I can read the disk fine during the task sequence but after restart the floppy icon still appears and it stops at "loading operating system". I've tried using bootsect /nt60 c: /mbr as the first step after the inital restart to WinPE, I've also tried diskpart with "clean" command but none of these has worked. SGE seems to reside in the MBR no matter what I do.

Is there any solution to get SGE out of the MBR and get the drive completely clean from WinPE?

EDIT: I should add that removing SGE from the MBR works fine with diskpart and option clean when I boot to WinPE from a CD, however, this is a Zero Touch scenario so WinPE must be staged and started from the disk. Also, we have the option to uninstall the with a uninstall.cfg file, but that also means a decrypt is needed if I understand correctly, and that simply takes too long in this scenario.

  • Not sure I understand what you're trying to do... If you're PXE booting to Win PE you can do a disk clean, partition and reformat as the first step in your OSD which will remove Safeguard completely.

    You can then do a software install after your new OS is ready to reinstall SGE.

    Or did I miss something in your problem?
