unattended installation questions.

-

good morning.

i have question regarding way im imaging pc's.  firstly want point out im using imagex capture completed image desired drivers , software.  this has worked perfectly.  i able deploy image wds 100%

now here question.  during deployments im noticing 3 things.  first , foremost product key.  we not use vlk yet. using oem licences.  is there way setup unattend file prompt product key during deployment?  also im looking relatively same thing happen computer name.

keep in mind pc captured image has activated product key installed. want deployment overwrite key , install proper oem key on new target pc input manually. same thing pc name.  alternatively there way use "bogus" key (for lack of better term) on reference image cannot activated?  then re capture image using imagex, use unattended install prompts key input , pc name input??

thanks assistance.
