Formatting 10+ computers

I need to format a pack of 10 computers. Back then, there was a time I was made for an image diskette whereby I cld copy the OS of one comp to the rest, I found that convenient. Due to change in tech (diskette drive elimination) I found deep freeze working well and I cld take time before formatting them.

Now, I need to clean them all,how can I make an image CD or Flash disc or which other simple way can I format these comps??

NB @Deorro & Web dev explain in a layman’s language pliz

Windows deployment kit. used to do in on WinXP, not sure if it’s in Windows 7/8/10.

Good tutorial, have a look…

Have several copies of Windows installation CDs. Other than that hauwezi saidika.

It was easy to copy ready istalled windows files in FAT32 file systems, but now with NTFS file system there is something called boot sector that has to be written during installation and can’t be copied or transfered.

Mwenyewe anajiskia ni computer geek let him/her overwrite my two cents above.

@Deorro hata mimi my windows 10 imepoteza sound. Have checked the sound devices are all okay but cant find the cause,

Probably there are two conflicting drivers, confirm that with device manager.

comp brand gani?

Computer brand doesn’t matter as long as it can support Windows 10. Alternatively check for any recent updates, probably an update by the key KB----292. Google will be of help to confirm that key update.

it matters. speaking from experience. i have a dell laptop yenye ukimute na keyboard haezi unmute hadi …(long story) same happens nikieka earphone, if vlc was playing a media the sound isn’t redirected to the earphone hadi ni restart vlc but my lenovo doesn’t have that problem. so brand matter,
