Hi there Many thanks for the reply Yes the files are in the I386 folder which all the images use after I have ripreped them Thanks Ian

Hi there Good morning from a snowy uk anyways the network drivers are in the global image and it still hangs - the drivers I'm using are the w2k versions that included in the I386 folder. Reason for this I can't find any XP versions The files are as follows ... ( this is a copy of my notes I create when updating the I386 folder) 19-01-07 - Added for Vmware version 09/08/2006 15:02 7,900 Vmware-nic.cat 09/08/2006 15:02 3,561 Vmware-nic.inf 09/08/2006 15:02 7,860 vmxnet.cat 09/08/2006 15:02 3,567 vmxnet.inf 09/08/2006 15:02 22,528 vmxnet.sys 09/08/2006 15:02 3,584 vmx_mode.dll 09/08/2006 15:02 9,052 vmx_svga.cat 09/08/2006 15:02 2,970 vmx_svga.inf 09/08/2006 15:02 15,744 vmx_svga.sys 09/08/2006 15:02 84,608 vmx_fb.dll 21-01-07 - Added for VMware version 30/11/05 18:30 1,621 VMSCSI.INF 30/11/05 18:30 7,868 VMSCSI.cat 30/11/05 18:30 10,880 VMSCSI.SYS I am assuming you don't need to list any NIC files in the TXTSETUP.SIF help Thanks ian

Thanks for the reply, I did think I did include the NIC Drivers but I wil check again tomorrow when I get to work I will let you know if that was it Thanks for the fantastic help sofar Ian

Hi there many thanks for the reply - Ris does work on non vm machines ... All standard machines build fine The image is a riprep image Thanks again Ian

Firstly this is my first on the for the forum so apologies if this has already been answered but... I have 5 VMware virtual machines setup to recieve PXEboot requests from the RIS server at my workplace. All machines are have IDE drives with 1 machine with SCSI drive as a test. All machines can get the F12 prompt and I can connect to the server, I choose the RIS image but the image starts to load but hangs at Setup is starting windows. I have added the VMscsi drivers and video drivers to the global image Anything else I am missing cos I am completely stumped thanks in advance Ian
