Microsoft Remote Installation Service (RIS) Instructions
for Windows RIS Servers

Problem: Microsoft Remote Installation Service installation fails for both Windows 2000 and Windows
XP.
Solution: Refer to Microsoft Knowledge Base Article, "How to Add Third-Party OEM Network Adapters
to RIS Installations."

To deploy a Windows 2000 image
1. Verify that the Windows 2000 RIS server has Service Pack 3 or later installed.

2. Follow the steps described in Microsoft Knowledge Base Article - 246184 at 
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb%3ben-us%3b246184

3. If the Windows 2000 RIS server does not have Service Pack 3 or later installed, modify the
b57win32.inf file as described below. In the .inf file that is to be placed in the RemoteInstall\Setup\Language\Images\Dir_Name\i386 folder, remove NTx86.5.1 in the 
[Manufacturer]
section (see the following example).

Original 				Revised
[Manufacturer]				[Manufacturer]
%BRCM% = Broadcom, NTx86.5.1		%BRCM% = Broadcom				
					
4. Follow the steps in Microsoft Knowledge Base Article - 246184 at 
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb%3ben-us%3b246184
, skipping step 1 as this has been done above.

To deploy a Windows XP image
1. Follow the steps described in Microsoft Knowledge Base Article - 315279 at 
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb%3ben-us%3b315279 .

2. Modify the b57win32.inf file as described below. In the .inf file that is to be placed in the
RemoteInstall\Setup\Language\Images\Dir_Name\i386 folder:

a. Remove the [Broadcom] section (see the following example):
[Broadcom]
%OEM1_DEV5% = OEM1_DEV5.Inst, PCI
\VEN_14e4&DEV_165D&SUBSYS_865d1028
.
.
%BCM5750B0F% = BCM5750B0MF.Inst, PCI
\VEN_14e4&DEV_167E&SUBSYS_057D1014&REV_10

b. Remove NTx86.5.1 in two locations (see the following example).
Original 				Revised
[Manufacturer]				[Manufacturer]
%BRCM% = Broadcom, NTx86.5.1		%BRCM% = Broadcom

[Broadcom.NTx86.5.1]			[Broadcom]
