Well, it's been a while since I last ran sysprep so this is a quick refresher.
First, you can find the files on the XP install cd under "Support\Tools\Deploy.cab". Extract the cab file to the C:\ in a folder you want the files to be.
Run "Setupmgr", this will make an answer file "sysprep.inf" which sysprep uses.
Go through the wizard clicking on "sysprep" option, and "not fully automated", then go through it and put in all the details that will apply to the computers you will be putting it on.
Once the file is generated, run "sysprep" from the same directory as the inf file and tick "use minisetup" and "Detect non-plug and play hardware" so that there is potential for different hardware.
Finally click on "reseal" and the computer will shutdown. Now you can image it!!
Yay, I hope this helps
worth mentioning is the not so comprehensive information on it (typical of microsoft)
