Hi,

trying to use remote installation service for the first time (RIS) Win Server 2003, and am having trouble with the network drivers, all the correct drivers are installed but when you start the RIS process it stops after a few seconds with the error msg

'the operating system you have selected does not contain the necessary drivers for you network adapter'

even though they are in place and we have even tried putting them in manually...

any ideas?

thanks

arent microsofts helplines great

tried the hotfix, didnt work unfourtunately, trying something else now...


cheers though

 

hmmmmm


tried all the suggestions google brings up, still no joy...

 

have you tired installing bashrats sneaky driver packs into the build of win XP, cant find a direct link for it now but it can be found on www.msfn.org

 

this baffled me for a bit but worked it out. You need to add the drivers in the flat cd image & add the location to the config file

 

hi guys, problem solved!

basically ignored the suggestions from microsoft etc.. and left the .inf files alone, added the drivers and it worked, horrah!



cheers guys
