pbm server ris 2003 with dell optiplex 755 and intel 82566DM nic driv

[laingo]

hi all,
does anyone know the issues of the ris for dell optiplex 755 with Intel 82566DM-2 card in Windows XP.
I always get the message:"The operating system
image you selected does not contain the necessary drivers for your network adapter".
I'm with:
Server RIS win 2003
Thanks

Copy the .sys and .inf files for the NIC into the i386 folder of the "flat" image.

hi PScottC,
my pbm is to find the good nic driver who work with ris.
I used pro2Kxp and did the following instructions but still no joy:


Microsoft Windows XP and Microsoft* Windows Server* 2003 (32-bit)
==================================================================

1. Create an [IMAGE_ROOT]\$oem$\$1\Drivers\NIC directory if one does not already exist.

2. Copy all files from the PRO1000\Win32 directory to the [IMAGE_ROOT]\$oem$\$1\Drivers\NIC directory.

3. Make the following changes to the .SIF file that is used for this image installation (located in the [IMAGE_ROOT]\I386\Templates directory):

[Unattended]
OemPreinstall = yes
OemPnpDriversPath = \Drivers\Nic

4. Copy all .SYS files from PRO1000\Win32 directory to the [IMAGE_ROOT]\i386 directory. Do NOT copy the INF files to this directory.

5. Delete E1000325.PNF, E1E5132.PNF, E1Q5132.PNF, and E1Y5132.PNF (if present) from the [IMAGE_ROOT]\i386 directory.

6. Extract the .INF files from PRO1000\Win32\RIS_INF\E1000325.ZIP, E1E5132.zip, E1Q5132.ZIP, and E1Y5132.ZIP to the [IMAGE_ROOT]\i386 directory.

7. Restart the Remote Installation Service.

8. Follow the rest of the Microsoft instructions for adding a new network driver to the RIS installation.

I don't know what am i missing.
Can anyone tell me the good version of the nic driver?
Please help help

I've found that Dell sometimes provides a RIS specific driver. Look for it. Also check the Intel website. They may have a RIS specific, or simply a newer driver.
