the microsoft support website addresses an entirely different issue. This thread is about an error message received before the Windows splash screen will even appear. It is not an error about Digital Signatures from applications or websites.
My Ghost boot disk works for the T40, T41 and the T42 since they all have the same type of mini-PCI NIC. I was able to put an image for the T41 on the T42 machine. I don't think it is a setting in the boot disk. Same hard drive, same chassis, same boot disk, different image than before. I...
Personally, I prefer the IBM ThinkPad series. We have had great succes with them. We used to be a Dell shop and after a series of trouble with their laptops, we ditched them for IBM. IBM's notebooks are very solid and they offer outstanding support, either on the website, phone support, repair...

I have had this happen to me and it is important to take down the error code on the blue screen. It is incredibly difficult but that error code is the key. It took me some close attention and time to get the code but then I could find the answer. It has been a while and I don't remember what the...
I also use sysprep but this image has been used many times with great success. No problems prior to this one. As a curious creature I may be too tempted to not dig further with this. Thanks for the information. How do you replace the answer file within an image? I ran sysprep before taking the...
I was having this same issue after ghosting an IBM T42 with WinXP. After hours of troubleshooting and trying to fix it, I determined that it was the hard drive. I called IBM and they are sending me a replacement. Their only suggestion that "might" fix the problem is to low-level format the...
