The Express Deployment Tool (EDT) makes it easier to install software quickly, and create a consistent and customized end-user experience. It works with OEM Pre-installation Kit (OPK) tools to provide streamlined deployments of typical PC configurations.

Benefits of using the Express Deployment tool:

* Greatly reduces the time required to install and deploy Windows 7, Office 2010, PC Essentials, and Microsoft Security Essentials.
* Wizard-based interface consolidates and simplifies the pre-installation process allowing system builders to quickly and easily create a quality PC with a customized user experience.
* Reduces deployment complexity and decreases the learning curve to create a robust solution that deploys without user input during the installation process and includes hard drive recovery, the complete PC Essentials software stack, and rapid deployment method.
* Can help system builders increase end-user satisfaction and ultimately grow their business.

To run the Express Deployment Tool, you will need the OPK tools and the bits for the software that you want to install.
