one is windows 2000 of which there are 15-20 in the building still.
The other is a dell dimension 4600 looks to be about 6 years old by the service 
tag. We have a lot that are this vintage in our building....are we out of luck? 
I saw a PIX BIS setting in the BIOS of the 4600, but that was it. I don't know 
what BIS is, but I set it to accept.

PXE has been standard on machines for quite a while. How old are the computers 
in question? Some machines are PXE capable but have it disabled in the BIOS 
when you buy them. You lose A LOT of the power of FOG if you don’t PXE boot.

Subject: Re: [tech-geeks] FOG newbie question
thanks for the help guys!
I checked the wiki, but didn't see mention of the following....of the three 
computers I've checked in our building only one had a PXE option. I see that 
there are disk booting options for PXE out there, but do you have some you 
suggest or perhaps a different direction around old computers with no PXE?
Also the one that did have the PXE option came back with an error when I went 
to boot and run a memory test.
"PXE-E11 ARP Timeout" There was more, but it dissappeared too quick. I think I 
have the FOG network settings right, but now I wonder. ARP is a router 
protocol? I aimed FOG at the same router that is in DHCP and is dished out to 
all our clients.
Thanks for all the help,
Scott

Yes, it is by default, you could off load that service to another
machine, but we make it a tftp server by default.
