WDS error message

I am getting a WDS error message on my set up - saying station part of wds network but no other base stations found.
The network works fine so i could just ignore but i am interseted to understand more and the manual 'designing n network' does not help me
here is the set up: dsl modem>n base station>connected wirelessly to 3 aiport expresses (printer;itunes/hifi and ax in bedroom) and a g base station
The error message says set up N base station as a 'bridge' but if i do that the ax's and g base station don seem to connect. The raeson I am using a n base station in this is that i want to use a shared hard drive on the network
All thoughts gratefully received

Hi xhoffman,
This error can occur when you try to install Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2 on a system if the following situation is true on your PC:

  • WDS error message Windows cannot be installed

    Hi I am new on the WDS environment, yesterday I installed the role on a Win 2012 server, added the DHCP config, the boot image and the install image from a windows 7 64 bit ISO and now when I try to push the install into a dell latitude E5530 I get an error
    message right at the end on the Windows 7 install saying that Windows cannot be installed in this hardware.
    What am I doing wrong?

  • WDS Capture error message

    Hi, I've been doing WDS for OS deployment and OS Capture since 2008 R2 SP1 and I'm sure I did followed the instructions well but in 2012 R2, it seems I'm getting an error message during capturing of OS. It show me this error message below:
    For the OS deployment, there's no issue, just the capturing. Tried to perform sysprep on the target machine but as far as I know, you'll still be able to see the capture GUI eventhough not sysprep'd it will still show the GUI but no option for the hard drive
    where you want to store the captured image.

  • Airport express and Windows 8 dns error message

    I have just purchased a HP windows 8 machine.  It works fine on my old Airport (5 years) wireless, but with the Airport express it does not.  I can connect with CAT5 cable direct.  When I bring up the available connections I see the airport express and pick it, type in the password and it says connected.  Next I click on IE and I get the error message "This page can't be displayed"  I run the fix connection problems and it says "Your DNS server might be unavailable".  Check list of items.
    1.  Windows 8 wireless machine works fine on old Airport
    2.  Windows 8 direct connect works fine on Airport Express amd old Airport
    3.  Windows 7 wireless machine works fine on both old Airport and Airport Express
    I am using the default settings on the Airport express except password is being used.
    Windows 8 >>>wireless>>>Airport Express>>>router
    As suggestions?

    What are the model numbers of both your Extreme and Express base stations? Do you have them configured for a 802.11n (extended) or 802.11g (WDS) Wi-Fi network?

  • WDSClient error message

    WDS is setup and working fine with all model computers we use except for the Optiplex 380. I have two Boot Images. One is a "Capture Image" that we use to capture images that are then loaded to the WDS server. We also have a "Boot Image"
    that allows our computers to PXE boot and connect to WDS server so the appropriate image can be selected. I have deleted the "Boot Image" in an effort to start from scratch. I then mounted the original boot.wim image that came from the Windows 7
    Sources folder, added the appropriate Optiplex 380 network drivers, unmounted and committed the changes. Then I created a new "Boot Image" with the updated boot.wim file. Still receive this error:
    WdsClient: An error occurred while starting networking: a matching network card driver was not found in this image. Please have your Administrator add the network driver for this machine to the Windows PE image on the Windows Deployment Services server
    I have scoured the internet and nothing has worked to fix the problem. Any suggestions?

    Hi zuki850g,
    As you receive the error message “a matching network card driver was not found in this image”.
    This issue occurs if the WDS boot image does not contain a network driver for your third-party network adapter.
    Please take to following steps to solve the issue.
    1. Find the network driver that is missing from the WDS boot image.
    2. Manually load the network driver, and then verify that it is the correct driver.
    3. Update the WDS boot image to include the new third-party network driver.
    4. Enable the boot image on the WDS server.
    Please refer to the following KB for more information.
    Error message when you start a PXE client to connect to a WDS server on a Windows Server 2003 SP1-based computer or on a Windows Server 2008-based computer: "WdsClient: An error occurred while starting networking"

  • DHCP WDS Error

    Hi. Im having a problem where I get the error 'An error occurred while obtaining an IP address from the DHCP server. Please check to ensure that there is an operational DHCP server on this network segment'when booting from a standard WDS boot.wim image taken
    from a Windows 7 DVD.
    I am using Server 2008 R2 and am adding the drivers to the boot using WDS, but also have the problem if the drivers are injected beforehand using DISM.
    When the error occurs I can shift + F10 and IPCONFIG and see it HAS picked up an internal IP from DHCP. Seems maybe it is timing out before it gets the IP?
    As per some fixes I have read I enabled RSTP on my switches but that didnt help.
    I have included the end of setupact.log to see if any of you have any ideas.Seems to be failing but as I say, the network IS initialized as I can see the internal IP assigned by DHCP when running IPCONFIG.
    I dont suppose theres any way of increasing the timeout?
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the reply. I have came across the post about removing setup.exe etc but thats a nasty hack and Id rather get the thing working properly.
    For my own testing to prove I had added the drivers correctly I booted off a base boot.wim with no drivers injected. There was no IP when running IPCONFIG. End of setupact.log shows

  • Windows Vista: Ipod Error Message, no longer read by PCs

    Hello,
    I have a 5th generation black ipod video with 30GB of memory.
    The other day I hooked it up to my laptop (Toshiba, 4 months old) that it's been functioning on with no problems whatsoever. This weird error message flashed twice about it not being able to sync because of some software problem.
    Eversince then, the only thing I can charge my ipod on is the family treadmill in the basement (~_~) as no other computer in the house recognizes it. I can't even charge it through the wall sockets, either.
    I have changed the ipod cord, still no luck. I've also reset the device about 3 or 4 times and uninstalled, restarted the laptop then reinstalled itunes. I would like to reset it back to factory settings but that's impossible as computers/laptops don't pick it up. I live very far from a Mac store...
    What's a girl to do? I can't live without my Busta Rhymes and Wu-Tang Clan!
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

    you have to update Vista go to this site and up-date http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com

  • Error message into a Variable.

    Dear users,
    I have a rather usual (unusual from the weekend beers for me though!!) query which I can't figure out a proper way to implement.
    My requirement is like this:
    I have a message class in which I want to define a text 'Employee number & not found'.
    I want to use this in the program, but not to raise this error. Instead, I want to move this error message with the Employee number into a Character(200) variable.
    So instead of using MESSAGE e0xx(messageclass) USING employee number, I would like to move the error text into a variable which looks like:
    lv_text = e0xx(messageclass) USING '1234'   which stores the text 'Employee number 1234 not found' in lv_text.
    How would I acheive it??
    Thanks, V!

    Try tis way
    message e999(00) with i_emp-empno into lv_text.
    press f1 in message will provide you more details

  • IPod seen by windows, not by iTunes+ weird error message

    I have a first generation 2GB iPod nano and i use windows xp. I can't load any music because iTunes doesn't see my iPod and an error message pops up that reads like this: "iTunes: iTunes.exe corrupt file. The file or directory \iPod_Control\iTunes is corrupt and unredable. Please run the checkdisk utility." I've tried everything, reinstalling iTunes, different versions, reinstalling OS, resetting iPod, even on another computer, same problem. Other than that, the iPod works normally, it's just lacking music..
    and why is there no email adress from apple for service qustions? 10x

    I still don't get it, how can I put it in disk mode if I CANNOT see the iPod in iTunes..?
    Did you read the document i linked you to? here's another link to it:
    Putting iPod into Disk Mode
    whereabouts in that procedure in that document (that you get to by clicking that link) does it say that you have to connect it to iTunes to put it into disk mode?
    ... never mind ... i guess you've fixed it anyway ...

  • Error message iPod cannot update b/c all of the playlists no longer exist

    Hello. I have been getting this error message. "Songs on the iPod "MAR(the name of my iPod)" cannot update because all of the playlists selecting for updating no longer exist." And my playlists are still on the left side in my iTunes. They do exist. I have a feeling ths might have to do with the fact that on vacation the person I was visiting gave me a gift of putting all of his music that would fit into the external hard drive part of my iPod, and for the past week or so I have been putting that music onto my 40 GB portable hard drive at home. I suspect I took a vital folder out of my iPod by accident. Right now I have the folder iPod_control if I open my iPod up in My Computer. Am I missing something? Right now my iPod is empty because iTunes made a composite playlist last week and I deleted it thinking I could get my real playlists back. Can you help me, or reccomend a site/someone who can? Thank you.
    PC   Windows XP  

    hiya!
    And my playlists are still on the left side in my iTunes. They do exist.
    let's just doublecheck this. folks get this message if they have "automatically update selected playlists only" selected in their itunes "ipod" preferences tab. so bring up that tab ("edit > preferences", click "ipod" while the ipod is showing up in the source list), and do a playlist by playlist crosscheck of the playlists selected in that tab, and the playlists showing up in the itunes sourcelist.
    is there any playlist selected in the preferences tab that isn't showing up in the sourcelist?

  • Windows Blue Screen Error Message Appears As Soon As IPod Connected

    Everytime I connect my IPod to my computer, I get the Windows Blue Screen error message. Thought it was the cable, so plugged cable in by itself. No problem. Uninstalled IPod and ITunes software and then plugged in IPod, still got the Blue Screen. The Blue Screen says something about "recent plugged in device problem". It is not the cable, it must be the IPod. Did not have this problem when I bought it. Tried it on labtop and get the same error message. I can't do updater or anything that requires me to plug the IPod into a computer because the Blue Screen appears immediately. When I unplug, the Blue Screen remains and locks up the computer so I have to restart each time. I have tried everything I can think of. Please help.

    Hi Mike thank you for replying,
    I am not able to start the computer in safe mode, safe mode with networking, last good known configuration etc, Each time it quickly blue screens and restarts about two secs into the process.
    I was unable to try a clean OS install from the disk as it gave the blue screen error shown in the original post. The same thing happened when I tried to use the repair option on the XP home disc. So i can't get into the computer at all to start diagnosing the fault, the only clue I have is the error message, and after searching the internet I haven't found much enlightenment from that yet.
    If you can help me out or suggest where to search it would be much appreciated.
    Thx

  • IPod Error Message: "The disk could not be read from or written to."

    Hello!
    I was syncing my sister's video iPod (30GB) and this error message pops up "Attempting to copy to the disk. "SARAH'S IPO" failed. The disk could not be read from or written to."
    I have restored it three times already, but once it starts putting the music and files back onto the iPod it pops up with that error message. I have updated to the latest version of iTunes and iPod software available. My OS is Windows XP.
    Is this something serious? Will I be able to fix it myself or will I need to send it in to be fixed by Apple? Will that be expensive? We didn’t get the Apple replacement plan. D=
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance. ^_^

    Okay I went thru that entire list and here's what I got...
    (1) My OS is XP and is running fine.
    (2) I've updated my windows
    (3) I don't know of any software that might be interfering.
    (4) There are no damaged files.
    (5) My Windows hard-drive is not damaged and I've tried restoring my iPod's disk thru iTunes but it still doesn't work.
    (6) I don't have an iPod photo and I can't find the folder to delete the cache if if I did.
    (7) The USB cord is firmly connected into my USB port and my iPod
    (8) My music is on my external hard-drive so I need to keep 3rd-party hardware connected
    (9) I will try another USB cord to see if that works.
    Is there anything else that I can do? Can Apple fix this?
    Please let me know.

  • IPod Touch will no longer sync...error message.

    For some reason my older iPod Touch without a camera on it will not sync any more and I am getting an error message saying this iPod cannot be synced. Now I had it set up to sync over Wi-Fi and I would occasionally hook up to the computer with the cable and got error messages on both. Now I read something about removing the SC Info Folder. If I do that will that mess things up with syncing my iPhone? 

    What is the exact wording of the error message?

  • Error Message: Need to purge Cache in Adobe Bridge CC (on PC)

    I tried purging using Adobe Bridge by going to Edit/Preferences/Cache then purging, but it becomes non responsive.  The error message said the problem files were at Users/(my user name)/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/BridgeCC/Cache.   There are 4 files in there that are taking up 124 GB!  Can I simply delete these files or will it corrupt my regular files?  I tried doing as some other forums suggested and hold the ALT key down when opening Bridge before purging, but no luck.

    Yes, you can delete the cache files manually,  Just be advised that Bridge will become very, very slow until it finishes rebuilding its caches.  Depending on your files, that can take a few minutes or several hours.
    A good way of doing it is at night, so you can do it before going to bed and let Bridge rebuild caches overnight.
    If you can, save the cache files before deleting them to an external drive, so that you'll have them as backup if something goes wrong.
