    Hi,

     

    Are you sure they have the exact the same hardware configurations?

     

    Are they in the same network environment?

     

    What’s the result if you use a Windows XP disk to install the system on these computers?

    Hi,

     

    Thank you for the reply.

     

    Do you use WDS with MDT (LTI deployment method) to deploy Windows XP?

     

    I suggest updating and reloading your BIOS settings.
