And then I run

sysprep.exe /oobe /generalize /shutdown

I see this error:

Did you use the Windows System Image Manager (WSIM) to create your unattend file? What you have posted is incomplete. You are missing two lines at the top that will look like this:

<?xml version=”1.0” encoding=”utf-8”?>
<unattend xmlns-“urn:schemas-microsoft-com:unattend”>

And the ending:

</unattend>

The WSIM tool adds these for you automatically when you create your unattend file with it. The WSIM is part of the Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit (WADK) for Windows 7 or 8/8.1. WSIM also looks at the available settings in the image so that you can only add settings appropriate to that image, and it has built in validation that will help with errors and deprecated settings.

Hope this helps,
