Snap Deploy Hangs after Imaging
I am using Snap Deploy 5 version 5.0.1.877
I create a Master Image, it is saved on the same machine where snap deploy is. I create a template (I have done over 200 machines the past two years).
I am restoring the same model pc/hardware.
The machine hangs on the System is being configured screen.

Hello Frank.
A possible cause of such behavior could be that system patching usually takes somewhere from five to ten minutes to complete and may require several (two or three) reboots, after which the deployed system starts successfully.
How long does your machine hang? What happens after a reboot?
Please collect and share with us the OS_patcher logs for analysis:
Logs of the patcher, the names of which are similar to os_patcher[dd.mm.yy].log and are located in the %Windows%\System32\ folder

The system was hanging for a couple of days which is not normal.
Now the issue I am having is that the deployment fails.
The error message is failed to register Acronis Snap Deploy

Frank, did you send Acronis the logs? No idea what the issue is in particular here. My guess is still the lack of drivers - did you try stand-a-lone deployment with WinPE rescue media to test my theory? I still have a hunch that the PXE environment connects to the deployment server, but the NIC driver is missing in the Acronis recovery environment after that. Ultimately, though, your logs should help Acronis determine the actual issue.
