Hello all. I'm working on grabbing an image of a Lenovo M70e Desktop system running Windows 7 64 bit. Using Altiris 7.1. I created a job that runs 3 tasks:
Prepare for Image Capture
Create Image
Reboot to Production.
I was able to run this job on another system just fine but now with thie system I pass step one but on the second one it boots to Windows PE and I get the following on the screen
Initializing network…
Starting the network…
Loading drivers…
Using dynamic IP…

Could not aquire IP address.
Upon some research I found suggestions regarding the NIC drivers not being setup. So I went to lenovo and extracted the drivers into a folder. I then went into the console and under Driver Management in the preboot tab clicked ADD and pointed to that folder. It seems like it worked as I can now see the Marvel driver in the list.
Afte that I went to Preboot Configurations and clicked Recreate Preboot Environment.
After that I ran the job again but it keeps getting stuck in the spot above. Any help on what i'm missing would truly be appreciated.
