Help needed - NIC Problem ?

Thread needs solution

Hi,

I am a trial user of Snap Deploy 3. I have 5 different models of laptop that i need to image.

The first model (Samsung R700) has been used to create a master image, this was then successfully sent over the network back to another machine of the same model type. No problems.

The 2nd model (Samsung R730) created the master image via network but is now not showing up in the deployment tab of the management console. The notebook has an IP address etc and is waiting on the Connecting to Management Console screen, but it never shows up in the list.
I am confused as to weather this is a NIC issue as it showed up no problem when creating the image, and it does get a IP address.

The NIC in question is a Yukon Marvell 88E8040.

Do i need a new driver added to the boot media or is there another issues i am missing?

I am inticipating this issue on the other 3 models of laptop that we run here, but starting off with the R730.

I welcome any help, anyone can offer.

Kind Regards,

Oli

Anyone?

I am able to create a boot media with the drivers i need myself?

After some more playing ive now found that i can create images on all laptops (apart from another R700 which is complaining about unsupported hard drives) via the network, but none can deploy via the network, it seems the NIC configuration options arent availiable either, i take this to mean it can run the NIC when creating the image but the deploy agent cant start the NIC properly. Sound right or am i barking up the wrong tree?

Any help would be much appreciated. anyone?
