We'll need more information as to what youre doing:

What type of unattend are you doing? Simple unattend.txt/winnt.sif or an
automated sysprep image?
What kind of machines are you deploying from/to?
Does a clean install work on the same hardware without hanging?
Etc...

I am doing simple network unattended installation
I am using winnt.exe cmd lines unattend.bat to begin deployment
and yes when I do clean install directly from the CD it works
Harware:
compaq DL380 server
Dell latitude cpx series client pc

Thanks for any help you can offer

Sounds like there is a problem with unattend file then, can you post it
(omitting things like your PID of course) so the group can look over it?
