Hi.<br />
<br />
I have WDS installed on one of my servers. We use it to deploy out XP images to all of our computers. I created a .wim image for XP on one computer some time ago. This image worked (i deployed it out to a few computers) but now it will not come up in the Install images list on WDS.<br />
<br />
I.e.: it is listed in the WDS Console under Install Images --- Image Group, but when i boot a client, it says No images are available.<br />
<br />
The computer that the image is 100% identical to the one i am installing it on.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Any thoughts?

Images not available in WDS on identical computers

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).

Microsoft Windows XP is the sixth release of the NT series of operating systems, and was the first to be marketed in a variety of editions: XP Home and XP Professional, designed for business and power users. The advanced features in XP Professional are generally disabled in Home Edition, but are there and can be activated. There were two 64-bit editions, an embedded edition and a tablet edition.
