Hi I was wondering if the ntuser.dat file can be used across any Intel workstation hardware on Windows XP Pro. Im creating a standard desktop for 1000 desktops in the organisations Im working at. We have a mix of different hardware (some HP, Dell etc) but all running Windows XP. Im looking at configuring the computer to the company standard via the administrator account then copying the ntuser.dat file to the default user profile so all users use the same settings. I was hoping to use the same dat file on the various hardware. Will this work?? Can the same file be used on laptops or will I need to configure the settings the same on each brand of desktop/laptop?
