    I reinstalled windows to my new hard drive on my w3j, now I get this sysprep thing ever time I boot, what do I do with it, and how do I get rid of it?

    ok, I learned I hit reseal, but does that cause all the updates and other stuff I finally have got installed, as well as the ntfs conversion done to be undone?
