We have new PC's, all supporting the PXE environment. All boot, without Floppy, hit F12 and away you go. For some reason, we've had 3 that just wouldn't find the RIS server. I used a network boot floppy (that we had for Ghosting) to initialize it. Once it connected to the gost server I would reboot and bingo, it found the RIS server. Out of 2400 PC's thus far, it's happened 3 times. Don't know why and haven't cared to look into it.

As I am working thur the implementation, I find that none of my network cards are PXE capable and they are not listed in the RBFG.exe program....so, I will need to buy a card that is either PXE capable or on the list of supported cards in the RBFG.exe program. I have two questions: 1. What do you all recommand for a PXE enabled card to buy? 2. If I were to buy one of the supported cards on the RBFG.exe, which one should I buy?
