Raceeend Raceeend Starting to like KiXtart Registered: 2002-05-09 Posts: 129 Loc: The Netherlands	Hello, I have some HP xw6000 pc's that i need to install. I created an Unattended install file, but when i boot up the machine from floppy the XP setup runs out of memory and stops the only options is to exit. The installation files are on the netwerk so some nic driver is also loaded during the boot process. The harddisk is empty and formatted fat32. Any suggestions? _________________________ regards, Martijn

Also, the Microsoft site does have a utility to create Windows XP boot disks. The failure to copy files normally point to either defect harddrive or faulty/incompatible memory.

Kdyer Kdyer KiX Supporter Registered: 2001-01-03 Posts: 6241 Loc: Tigard, OR	What about using Microsoft's RIS, SysPrep and Symantec Ghost to deploy? It is what we use and works great with the images we build. Kent _________________________ Utilize these resources: UDFs (Full List) KiXtart FAQ & How to's

Lonkero Lonkero KiX Master Guru Registered: 2001-06-05 Posts: 22346 Loc: OK	well, RIS is AD only, ghost is costly, sysprep... well, it might be ok but it takes time lot more than simple floppy rock. _________________________ ! download KiXnet

Dont use it cause we use different Pc's and you setup will be affected by this....but saying that Ghost will muck up 2. Are you using the Setup Manager Wizard?
