this is rarely the case. Well if you are trying to install 50+ clients at the

Not quite sure what exactly is going on but here are few suggestions
1) do you have excessively long paths sth like dir1\dir2\dir3\dir4\i386
2) is your OS_MEDIA variable too long
3) is by any chance the network too "loud" i.e. too much traffic in it.
4) which version of unattended you use
5) are the network cables ok
