We are using an older version on ghost (8.2.0.1117) and have recently got some new machines in that we have created an image on and have tried using ghost to create an image but ghost is having an issue with the newer on board lan drivers.
This is the latest one i have downloaded from Asus and tried in input into ghost:
Realtek LAN Driver V5.726.525.2009
When I go into ghost boot wizard to add the new drivers on the server I have chosen tcp/ip network boot image, clicked add and then tried both the packet driver and NDIS2 driver, left the mode to automatic.
On the next screen it is asking me to use pcdos but that the files are not installed and asking me to install a floppy, carrying on i go to the next screen and click next to finish but get an error saying " a valid filename must be entered into this field before continuing" but there is no field for this.
If i click cancel and go back into boot wizard my drivers are still there but will still not let me image, it will load ghost on the machine but time out when casting.
I have checked my switch and it is open for multicasting and i have tried a seperate network card in the machine (ones from the old machine that i know have worked) and they worked straight away so i believe that it is a driver issue with the new lan on the mobos.
Can anyone help me get these drivers in ghost so i can multicast please
thanks

Create a Universal network boot floppy image and use that to create your CD boot. set it to connect to your server, and put a copy of Ghost.exe on the shared drive where the images are .

Forgot to say when the connection times out on the new pc it gives me ghostcode 19945 and the server says that the connection was reset by the client.
Thanks
