A. This is normally caused by using SYSPREP with a 3rd party networkclient and is caused by a registry entry being incorrectly updated.
To correct you will need to install a second copy of NT onto the system andperform the following:
Boot into the second copy of NT
Start the registry editor (regedt32.exe)
Select HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
From the Registry menu select 'Load Hive'
Move to the %systemroot%system32Config directory of the primary NT installation and select the System file. Click Open
Type any name for the key, e.g. "System primary" and click OK
Double click the new hive, expand Setup and double click SystemSetupInProgress
Change from 1 to 0. Click OK
Select the key created in step 6 and select 'Unload Hive' from the Registry menu
Close the registry editor and reboot into your primary installation.
