Hello,

I have two types of computers, Compaq Deskpro (no PXE NIC) and Deskpro
EN (PXE NIC). They are both PIII, but one has PXE boot NIC and the
other doesn't.

For some reason, when I boot Deskpro using a floppy I can't see the
RISPrep image created by DeskPro EN - only the image built on Deskpro
and vise versa.

The only exception is the CD Image of Windows 2000 - both types of
machines can see it.

I went through the .sif files in attempt to find any explanations, but
couldn't.


Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Vitaly
