HPIA can compare HP-developed Reference Images and IT-developed Target Images to highlight differences in such things as BIOS version, BIOS settings, device drivers, installed software, and Windows updates. By automating these comparisons and providing an interface to quickly locate differences and download/install updates, HPIA reduces the time needed to develop and maintain quality Windows images, with the right device drivers, right software patches, and right BIOS settings, for HP business computers. HPIA is intuitive, fast, easy to use, and free. Glossary · Reference Image -- an image developed by HP or another image that is ready to be or has already been deployed. HPIA extracts an XML image configuration file from the Reference Image to use as a reference. · Target Image -- an image that you want to analyze and may currently be under development by you. HPIA extracts an XML configuration file from the image selected as Target Image to analyze and compare to the Reference Image configuration file. · QFE -- a software update released by Microsoft. Quick-Fix Engineering (QFE) software updates address severe instability, security problems, preinstallation problems, and problems reported by customers. System requirements HPIA can be run on computers running the following versions of Windows. The HPIA user interface executable, HPImageAssistant.exe, requires .NET Framework 4.5. Note HPIA does not support Windows Embedded, Windows Mobile, Windows IoT operating systems. Table 1. Supported operating systems Operating system Windows 10 Windows 8.1 Windows 7 SP1 .NET Framework 4.5 Included in OS release Included in OS release Go to https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30653 to download and install the software. HPIA can capture and analyze image configuration files from select HP Elite and Pro computers running Windows 10, Windows 8.1, or Windows 7 SP1 operating systems. For a full list of images supported by HPIA, go to http://www.hp.com/go/clientmanagement. 2 Using HPIA Downloading HPIA 1. Go to http://www8.hp.com/us/en/ads/clientmanagement/overview.html. 2. Select HP CMS Download Library. 3. Scroll to HP Image Assistant and download the SoftPaq. HPIA consists of HPImageAssistant.exe, HPImageAssistant.dll, ImageCapture.exe, ImageInfo.dll, ImageUpdate.dll, language resource files, and other files. HPIA can be run from a flash drive, a target computer, or from a different computer running a Windows 10, Windows 8.1, or Windows 7 operating system. HPIA does not update the registry or copy files to the target computer. Select HPImageAssistant.exe to open the HPIA user interface. ImageCapture.exe is a standalone tool that captures an XML image configuration file that can then be compared. HPImageAssistant.exe and ImageCapture.exe must be run as an administrator to capture the XML files properly. To run an application as an administrator from File Explorer, select the executable file, right click, and then left click on "Run as administrator". 3 Capturing a Reference Image configuration file If you run HPIA on an HP computer, by default, HPIA selects the Reference Image configuration file from the latest shipped by HP and based on the HP platform system ID and operating system. HPIA also supports capturing a Reference Image configuration file from a "known good" computer. These image configuration files are XML files that contain metadata describing an image. They are not the actual image. HP recommends running HPIA from a USB flash drive to capture files. HP also recommends saving the configuration files to the USB flash drive to be sure that you do not modify the image of the computer you are working on. HPIA generates the configuration file SYSID_OSBIT_OSVERSION.xml in the same directory as the executable, as follows: · SYSID--HP platform system ID (for example, 2253) · BIT--Operating system architecture (64 for 64-bit, 32 for 32-bit) · OSVER--Operating system major and minor versions (for example, 6.3 for Windows 8.1) To capture an image configuration file for the Reference Image: 1. Run ImageCapture.exe from the command line. or Open the directory where you saved HPIA, select HPImageAssistant.exe, select Tools, and then select Capture Target Image Configuration. Note You must run HPImageAssistant.exe or ImageCapture.exe as an administrator to capture an image configuration file. 4 The XML image configuration file is captured. Using HPImageAssistant.exe 1. Open the directory where you saved HPIA, and then select HPImageAssistant.exe. 2. Next to Choose Target Image, select one of the following options: · Browse... -- allows you to select a saved XML image configuration file. · <This Computer> -- selects the image configuration file of the computer you are using. 5 3. Next to Choose Reference Image, select one of the following options: · Browse... -- allows you to select a saved XML image configuration file. · <This Computer> -- selects the image configuration file of the computer you are using. · <From HP.com> -- allows HPIA to automatically select the appropriate image configuration XML file of an image shipped by HP. HP stores these image configuration files on AWS and hp.com. The automatic XML selection depends on the platform model, operating system version, and the architecture of Target Image selected in Step 2. Note You must be connected to the Internet to use the From HP.com option. HP recommends this option to ensure that you use the latest image shipped by HP for comparison. 4. Click Analyze. Note The system ID, operating system architecture (64-bit or 32-bit), and operating system major and minor versions must match between the Target Image and Reference Image configuration files to compare and analyze the files. HPIA compares the specified Target Image and Reference Image configuration files and then displays a summary. Analyzing the results After you run HPImageAssistant.exe, a summary is displayed. Select one of the other tabs to see additional details about device drivers, installed software, security, and BIOS settings. If you selected the From HP.com option, there is also a Recommendations tab. If you did not select the From HP.com option, there is also a QFEs tab. The Summary, Security, and Recommendations tabs contain information about the Target Image configuration file only. The Device Drivers, Installed Software, QFEs, and BIOS Settings tabs contain information about the comparison between the Target Image and Reference Image configuration files. The following colors and symbols are used to help you analyze the results and prioritize the recommended changes to Target Image. 6 Summary tab This tab summarizes the overall health and overall security of the Target Image. The summary includes details about platform details, missing drivers, out-of-date drivers, HP recommended software updates, and out-of-date software. The security summary includes details on whether anti-virus and anti-spyware protection is enabled and up-to-date, whether the firewall is enabled, and whether a BIOS Setup Password is set. In the BIOS Configuration section, Different refers to BIOS settings that exist in both the Target Image and Reference Image configuration files, but have different values. Added or missing refers to BIOS settings that were either added or removed between BIOS releases. 7 Recommendations tab The Recommendations tab is available only if the From HP.com option next to Choose Reference Image was selected. This tab shows the latest versions of BIOS, Drivers, and Software installed on Target Image and Reference Image. Based on the comparison, HPIA recommends updating Target Image or installing a missing component.
