DarrenP Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 Hey Guys/Girls.First off I'd like to thank all that have posted such useful information on this forum - huge help So, im using WinPE 2004 and Im building the image using an XP install with SP2 slistreamed into the source.Running the following to create the WinPE image:MKIMG.CMD ..\XP_SP2 C:\MININT /NOWF /PNPOnce this has completed, I inject the NIC card driver(s) into the WinPE image using:drvinst.exe /inf:\WINPE\NICDrivers\GX270_NIC /inject:C:\MININTMinor changes have been made to setreg.hiv, and EXTRA.INF to support 16 bit apps.Startnet.cmd looks like this:set temp=X:\TEMPset tmp=X:\TEMP%SystemRoot%\system32\instdrvw PMEMNT %SystemRoot%\pmemnt.sysregsvr32 /s netcfgx.dllfactory -minintnetcfg -v -winpenet start dhcpnet start nlaSo not rocket science going on here - However, ~10 seconds after the "factory -minint" command runs, the desktop locks up. Requires a hard reboot.Ive tried manually running factory -winpe, as it shows a GUI detailing each task its performing - it always locks up on "Starting Networking".Some more info:1. WinPE will not run from a CD but will be installed on a hidden partition2. Tested on both a Dell GX260 and GX270 - Same issue on both.3. Network drivers downloaded from Dell and injected.Any idea what Im doing wrong here and why the desktop is locking up? Any suggestions welcome!Darren.

Chris242 Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 Here is a question for you: What is the network driver? I have seen all sorts of issues now with incorrectly written drivers....When you are creating the image why are you using /NOWF and /PNP?MKIMG.CMD ..\XP_SP2 C:\MININT /NOWF /PNPIf the only hardware you need installed is the network card then you are calling for that installation on your startnet.cmd:regsvr32 /s netcfgx.dllfactory -minint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
