AndyUK Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Try this. Tech Net Pay particular attention to "To create an install image" fig.2 see the NOTE that reads "This directory structure is valid for Windows Server 2008 and Windows Vista only. For Windows 2003 and Windows XP, use the appropriate Sysprep version from Deploy.cab."Hope this is useful to you gl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tripredacus Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 I am pretty sure you need to install the Windows AIK as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyUK Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 Looks like your nic is not compatable with RIS to confirm this go to your RIS directory then Admin\i386 run the rbfg.exe and select Adapter List button if your adapter is not shown then you have two alternatives.1. If you have a nic that is on the list shown in the fbfg.exe then install that.2. You must add the drivers to your base image via the $oem$ directory and then alter your sif fileIf you google adding drivers to ris image you'll find plenty of instructions to help you do this.

Are you using BDD2007 of Standard Edition? -2007 has an neat builder which is pretty handy, you can add drivers to it too, Bâshrat the Sneaky's DriverPacks are something you should take a look at. You can simply add them to BDD2007 with Out of the Box Drivers, makes an big list which is rather unorganized (atleast mine is) but it works.
