Can't get an IP with WinPE

[Colin]

Hello All.

I can't seem to get an IP with WINPE. IPCONFIG shows blank
output. The driver for the network card is there. I can
verify that by doing a netcfg -s a

The output is correct. I have also stepped through all
these with no errors...
regsvr32 /s netcfgx.dll
factory -minint
netcfg -v -winpe
net start dhcp
net start nla

The cable is verified and I can get DHCP on the same
machine booted in Windows. Any idea guys?

Thanks for your time.

I've had this problem before with auto vs. forced speed/duplex settings in the NIC's inf. I'd suggest making sure your inf settings match your network topology (basically make sure everything is autonegotiated). Check it at the switch too (if you can).

Hi,

try a little tool called ipchange.exe to
change / add the IP.
