genmud Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 I think that I may have gotten something similar to that when I was running my testing scenarios... I was using the most up-to-date drivers for a particular nic, and it just wouldn't work...So i suggest you check the drivers, make sure there aren't any registry things that need to be added for the drivers to work.

EvilNotion Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 Getting that error usually means that WinPE didn't load a driver for that specific NIC. Like Genmud said, check your drivers. You'll probably have to integrate new ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blair Posted November 7, 2004 Author Share Posted November 7, 2004 Thanks for your help guys. I worked out the problem with the box in question with it having another 3com nic installed which actually had a broadcom chipset on it. Once I removed this from the system all was well.

ribond Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 one handy way to figure out if WinPE has installed your nic is to run: NETCFG -SA from the cmd prompt. This will give you the PNP ID's and friendly description of any NICs that have been installed. You can also runNETCFG -SNto see what protocols have been bound, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
