Hi,
Hope someone can shed some light on this problem I'm haivng creating a
image on our new standard laptop (HP Compaq NC6220).
We us Windows 2003 RIS services to build and deploy Windows 2000 images
to our clients.
I create a new image using the 2003 RIS server to download a copy of
the default Windows 2000 SP4 image. This builds fine (the correct NIC
drivers are located in the PNP drivers path). The image is created by
installing all drivers, OS updates and build customisation changes
made.
I upload the image to the RIS server and test on the same machine the
image was created on. This works fine and the machine sucessfully joins
the domain.
If I download the image to a second machine of indetical specification,
during Windows 2000 setup I get:
'An invalid domain was specified. Would you like to proceed for now and
try joining the domain later?'
To move forward you need to click yes and setup proceeds. Once built
the machine is obviosuly built in a WORKGROUP configuration. After
logging in the Broadcom B57i network controller is detected and does
not install automtically. Instead you have to manually point the device
driver install wizzard to C:\Drivers\NIC were the Broadcom controller
drivers on contained.
I have tried different versions of the Broadcom drivers and created
several different images. But no sucess....
For some reason the Broadcom driver does not get installed during Plug
and Play driver detection. This stops the machine joining the domain.
I notice some other posting with similar issues and a possbile fix is
to remove the WLAN drivers as the machine is trying to join the domain
over wireless. Anybody think this could be causing an issues (machine
has Centrino 2200BG onboard).
Hope someone can point me in the right direction.
This is prob also a known issue on conventional Sysprep images.
Thanks.
Dave
