GX170 - RIS Error

Question

We just got in a GX170, our normal fare are the GX280's.   I am trying to RIS it with Windows XP, and am encountering a 'Stop 0x000000BB' error before you would expect it to start analyzing/formatting the hard drive.   I am using a Windows 2000 Server with SP4, and the XP RIS image has been slipstreamed with SP2.  The network drivers are up to date in the NIC and I386 folder, with the parsing issue already resolved.  We have been and are still able to RIS other clients, such as GX100, GX 60 and GX 280 models without difficulty.   Had anyone else had this problem?

I got past the errors by using one particular version of the drivers, which I cannot recall, I think probably the Intel ones. Once you get past this problem, however, you're going to be faced with the same drivers that work for the text portion of RIS not working with the GUI portion. Very frustrating machines, I will not be buying anymore machines with Intel NICs in them.
