Question : Ghost client hangs on usb boot

I'm having problems getting new HP 2133 mini's to boot to Ghost client via USB. It gets to "Starting PC Dos..." as usual and then hangs from there. I've tried various driverswith the main ones being - a universal packet driver, Broadcom BCM57xx, Broadcom Netxtreme family v.6.46.
Now I have resorted to install the client via the console and it see the computer but I've got 130 of these to deploy and would like to boot to the ghost client without having to set up windows and all first.

Broadcom Netlink Gigabit Ethernet is what's listed in device manager.

Thanks for this and any other suggestions given.

You should also be able to put this on a USB key.


I hope this helps !
