Virtual Media Disconnects

Hi..

I have an HP Proliant Dl380G5 server. It has an iLO2 board on it. Firmware is v1.50 (3/12/08)
I am using IE v7.0.6001 to connect to this server. Basically I am trying to load Windows OS onto the server remotely using the Virtual Media applet. I am loading it via the Virtual CD/DVD button. It connects but after a few minutes (times are not consiting) it will disconnect on me. Is there any time out settings in the browser or on the iLO? I have also tried mounting it through the intregrated console window. Also it does not matter if it is an ISO or an image file. This has happen to me on a couple of different servers and also trying it from 3 different PCs.
If you need any more information let me know..

Thanks

WRONG forum.

udpate ILO to latest.

Update server BIOS to latest.

4th

Troubleshoot network between your image location and the server.

5th

Hope You are NOT trying to mount image files as CD/DVD. Mount them as image files.
