I may have bad news: rbfg will only work with pci nics, and only ~25 are currently supported. 3coms are a good choice for this purpose. This also means that laptops will not be using RIS.
microsoft says they'll update the rbfg often, with distribution over the web.
regards, lazarus.

The NIC you wish to add must be PXE-Enabled. Intell, 3Com, Compaq all have PXE NICs.

Microsoft will upgrade often so check their site for your NIC. If the NIC is a new one, the Manaufacture of the NIC might have the needed drivers. Warning, ifthe NIC is not on the HCL strange events can happen.
