Problem with Ghost since uprading to XP SP2

I last did an image backup from my Inspiron 1100 to my desktop machine on 10/4 using Ghost 2003.  I have been doing this fairly regularly every month or so for the past year.  There were a few hiccups initially finding and installing the Broadcom 440 driver, but it worked flawlessly after that, until... 
On 10/16 I applied the SP2 update to my Win XP Pro desktop OS, and to the XP Home edition on the laptop.
I tried to Ghost the Inspiron drive this morning, and I'm getting all kinds of errors, starting with a timeout on the DHCP server.  BTW, at this point, the system fan comes on at full speed.
The first messages are:
NTS$NTST2: NTS0108: IP address cannot be obtained
NTS$NTST2: NTS0110:
Notify network administrator, correct the problem, and reload
NET5733: The protocol manager has reported an incomplete binding.
 
NET HELPMSG 5733 gives the following super-helpful explanation:
Replication of the *** Policy Object "***" from primary domain controller
*** failed with the following error:
***
 
All very helpful, I'm sure.  Does anyone have a clue what this means?

You did not indicate if you updated LiveUpdate for SP2. This page is the link to LiveUpdate for XP SP2. The new LiveUpdate replaces the old one.

I updated Live Update today and then ran it twice, but there were no updates to Ghost.  There were updates to LiveReg and WMI, but I don't know why they would make a difference.  Haven't retried, as I spent the next two hours trying to get Ghost 2005 to recognize my LiteOn DVD-RW drive.  After corrupting a disc, it then decided there was no media present.

Fortunately, I have Nero 6 Ultra, who DOES recognize the LiteOn drive, so I was able to do a full data backup from both machines.

I run Ghost 2003 in peer-to-peer mode between my iXPS (with BCM57x) and my emachines desktop (with Netgear GA311) with no problems. Both are running XP Pro SP2. I can use DHCP through the router or static addresses through a cross-over cable. The only thing I can think of is the NDIS2 driver is not set up properly. In your Ghost template properties are you using the correct driver name with $ at the end?  If you did not get your driver from Broadcom, here is their link:
