Image problem

riley_3 — Wed, 25 Aug 2004 13:02:51 GMT

I have an issue where I can start an image creation process, which run fine for around 5 minutes then the connection speed drops to zero. The source machine just sits their I have looked at the image file created and its last modified time coincides with the client appearing to stop any ideas? I need to rapidly role out a number of client machines.

The server is running RDP 5.6 SP1 build 173 on Windows 2000 Server SP4 and the clients are new HP6050 machines running XP SP2. I have installed Aclient exactly like on other machines and have successfully imaged machines XP SP2 before so I’m really stuck for ideas the server is working and will deploy/create from other machines but these just pause after 5 minutes??

Does your deployment seerver have a gigabit NIC? If si, try disabling Checksum Offloading on the NIC inthe NIC settings on your deployment server.

Thanks for the reply the deployment server is a DL380 with fast Ethernet NICs teamed. Iâ ve isolated the issue to be related to the clients hardware as I am now transplanting the disks into another PC (Evo D500 SFF) which I know works to load the image then moving the disks back to the DX6050 for configuration its working but its not exactly ideal
