hi.
i am going to deploy the image of refrence computer (my pc) that installed on win7 on networkshare in order to apply the image on destination computer (my laptop that installed on winxp) but every time i do this command( net use y: \\network_share\ images copy d:\myimage.wim y: )
the following error occurs:
The syntax of this command is:
NET USE
[devicename | *] [\\computername\sharename[\volume] [password | *]]
[/USER:[domainname\]username]
[/USER:[dotted domain name\]username]
[/USER:[username@dotted domain name]
[/SMARTCARD]
[/SAVECRED]
[[/DELETE] | [/PERSISTENT:{YES | NO}]]NET USE {devicename | *} [password | *] /HOME
NET USE [/PERSISTENT:{YES | NO}]
is it necessary to creat network connection between my pc & laptop during deploying from network share?
plz help me .thanksFriday, February 12, 2010 7:46 AM

OK Sam,
here is your problem.
Computer1 is configured to use
Static IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.51
your other computer "PC", (when it runs normal Windows, not WinPE) is is configured to use
Static IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.19
Since the two computers are in the same subnet
(Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0),
they communicate without a problem.
However, when you boot a second computer with WinPE, the WinPE is configured to obtain IP address automatically. Since you don't have DHCP service on the network, the WinPE computer gets an IP address from the Automatic Private IP Address range (APIPA):
(Autoconfiguration IPv4 Address. . : 169.254.235.11)
Since the two computers are now in different subnets, and APIPA does not assign default gateway, the two computers cannot communicate.
The quick fix.
1. Forget what I said about adding driver, the network card is detected correctly.
2. When you boot from WinPE, issue command:
netsh int ip set address local static 192.168.0.42 255.255.255.0
This will set a static IP address to your network card.
3. Continue with net use command we discussed earlier.
Good luck, and if I may suggest you study some basic networking (like A+ or Network+).

I'm using WinPE and connecting to a network share on my laptop all the time, so let's try to solve it.
Computer1 Computer2
(LAPTOP) <-- (PC) booted into WinPE
"Server" "Client"
192.168.0.51 192.168.0.42
Computer2 wants to connect to Computer1.
1. On your LAPTOP computer.
Create a folder D:\Images
Move your .wim file to D:\Images
Share folder D:\Images as "Images".
This folder is now accessible from the network as
\\LAPTOP\Images
You did create user Bob as I asked before, didn't you?
You did make Bob a member of Administrators on your LAPTOP as I asked before, didn't you?
You did assign Bob's password a value Pa$$w0rd (or whatever), didn't you?
2. Go to Computer2 (PC)
Boot into WinPE
a) Run command
netsh int ip set address local static 192.168.0.42 255.255.255.0
wait 1 minute
b) Run command
net use u: \\LAPTOP\Images
You should be prompted for username and password
Username: LAPTOP\Bob
Password: Passw0rd (or whatever)
Your wim image should now be accessible as U:\MyImage.wim
You can apply this image to 'PC' using ImageX command, for example
ImageX /apply U:\MyImage.wim 1 C:\
Another advice (sorry if I'm nagging you)
In my town where I live, we have tens of Wireless clubs. We basically share our wireless equipment, we hang on rooftops and teraces, we share Internet access and play games ("Call of Duty" is very popular). You can find many bright people in these clubs willing to share their knowledge about networking. It's a great hobby for technology enthusiasts.- Marked as answer by sam_mh_85 Wednesday, February 17, 2010 4:06 AM

Hi Sam,
Are you trying to issue two commands from one line?
The way you wrote it, it seems so.
So, you've got two commands
net use y: \\network_share\ images
I can see an extra space here:
\ images
The correct command should be
net use y: \\network_share\images
The other command looks OK
copy d:\myimage.wim y:
If you want to issue both commands at once, you can write them in a .cmd file.
Open notepad, paste the following two lines inside and save as MyImageCopy.cmd (ensure that under Folder Options/View, the option "Hide extensions for known file types" is cleared). You can then simply run command MyImageCopy from the command Prompt.
net use y: \\network_share\images
copy d:\myimage.wim y:Friday, February 12, 2010 11:18 AM -
hi
i do what you say,but i have the problem again,and sometime the following error occurs:
system error 53 has occurred.
the network path was not found,
my pc is a refrence computer that running win7,i created a refrence image of my pc ,then i want to apply this image to mp laptop( destination computer) so that install win7 on my laptop.
it is necessary to make workgroup or domain connection between my laptop and pc befor i am going to use these instruction:
net use y: \\network_share\images
copy d:\myimage.wim y:
there is no connection between my laptop and pc during enter above commands,Friday, February 12, 2010 3:37 PM -
Another option would be using the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit 2010 to deploy your image from the Network to the client PCs in your environment.

Sam,
The error message indicates that you name resolution is not working, meaning that computer cannot resolve IP address from the name.
In order to fix it you need,
a) on the client computer set network sharing and discovery. Share something on client
b) on the server, setup WINS server.
c) on the client computer(s), adjust IPv4 properties to use your WINS Server.
d) check firewall settings.
If it sounds complicated, try to connect to the server using IP address instead o the name.
You may also tryto use fully quallified domain name (FQDN) if you are using DNS on your private network (if you are using domain, then you are using DNS).Friday, February 12, 2010 11:29 PM -

thanks for your help,but i havn't server,i used workgroup connection between laptop and pc.when i insert winPE media in DVD-R the command-prompt windows open then i coldn't access the workgruop network that before created ,and error the network path was not found, occurred.
i said i have only 2computer one of them is refrence and the other one is destination.Saturday, February 13, 2010 7:09 AM -
1. You need to turn on file sharing and network discovery on your computer where your image resides, let's call it a "server".
2. Your two computers must be able to communicate with each other.
a) on both computers go to command prompt and issue command
ipconfig /all
If your both computers have the address from the range 169.254.y.z, you are using APIPA. This is OK. You may need to wait a while to establish connection (retry after 1 minute).
Your computers can also have address from some other range like 10.w.y.z, 172.w.y.z or 192.168.y.z but it is important that the first two or three dotted numbers are the same. It may be helpfull to post the output of Ipconfig on both computers here.
b) From your WinPE computer, try to ping IP address of your "server" computer obtained in a) above. If you get reply, you have the connection.
c) Try to disable (temporarily) firewall in your "server" computer.
3. Sometimes there may be problems with blank passwords
a) on your "server" computer create a user "Bob" with password Pa$$w0rd.
b) try to turn "Advanced Sharing" on your shared folder and add user Bob with full control permissions.
c) from your WinPE computer try to access network share on your "server" computer, let's say it's name is "RIO". Use the command
net use t: \\RIO\SharedFolder /User:RIO\Bob
You should then be prompted for a password.

I performed all of the instructions that you said,i connected two computers together then they communicated with each other ,and got reply,then ener the command (
net use t: \\RIO\SharedFolder /User:RIO\Bob ) on the computer that called "server" and meesage occured :the command completed successfully.
then i inserted WinPE Media on "server" computer and restart computer then windows PE starts and open a command-prompt window
and type the below command:
net use t: \\RIO\SharedFolder /User:RIO\Bob
then the error again occured :
system errors 53 has occured,the network path was not found. :(
then exit of winPE command-prompt window and return to serevr computer ,then retype the below commands:
net use t: \\RIO\SharedFolder /User:RIO\Bob ,
and the message occured:
the command completed successfully.
everytime i insert the winpe media on the server computer and restart and open winpe command-prompt and retypre the commands the error occure and couldn't find the network pathSunday, February 14, 2010 9:30 AM -

Dear les52,
i write for you the following instruction that exist on 70-680 configuring win7 trainingkit book page 86,i think found the problem that i come across with....
1.
log on to the canberra computer using the kim_AKERS account.
2.
On the canberra computer, insert the Windows PE medium and restart the computer.
3. Windows PE starts and opens a command-prompt window.4.
To capture an image of the reference installation by using the ImageX tool located
on your Windows PE medium, enter
e:\imagex.exe /capture c: d:\images\
myimage.wim “Canberra Win7 Install” /compress fast /verify
.
This command uses ImageX on the CD/DVD-ROM drive E: to capture the image of the system disk C: to the folder images on the second hard disk D:
5. Enter exit and remove your Windows PE boot disk. The computer boots into Windows 7.
6.
Check that the file Myimage.wim exists on the D: drive (or wherever you chose to put it).
7.
Optionally, if you want to share the image across a network, create a network share,
(for example, \\Canberra\Images) and map it to a network drive (such as Y:) and then
copy the WIM file to this share.
i dont perform step 5 and don't exit of winPE command-prompt
,after the step4 that created the image file of win7 ,i don't type "exit" in winPE command-prompt window and don't remove winpe media ,and stayed in the winPE command-prompt and type the following instruction:
net use t: \\RIO\images /User:RIO\Bob then the error "the network path couldn't not found " occurred.
do you think this is the main cause of my problem in this section that after step4 i don't exit of the winpe command-prompt or not ?Sunday, February 14, 2010 1:38 PM -
Sam,
are you learning for the exam 70-680?
Which training kit are you refering to (full title and publisher please)?
Do you really have two computers?
Are they physical or virtual?
At the moment you are really stuck with the basic networking.
On first computer, no matter if it's running a server or client operating system, you need to share a folder that contains your wim images.
On second computer which is booted to Win PE, you need to connect to this shared folder on first computer. That's what net use command does
From the description of your exercise, I didn't get the impression that you are working with two computers.
When you are studying it is best to create two virtual machines, one with server and one with client operating system. Windows 7 has a free Windows Virtual PC download. However, this requires hardware virtualization to be present on the CPU and BIOS. Some other alternatives also exist, some are free, some are commercial. From Microsoft download site, you can also download ready built virtual machines.

,yes i really have two physical computer(pc and laptop)..
you said:On second computer which is booted to Win PE, you need to connect to this shared folder on first computer. That's what net use command does
this is my problem,on second computer (pc) could't connect to this shared folder on first computer in winpe command-prompt,
but before the pc booted to winpe command-prompt, two computer(pc and laptop) connect together ..Monday, February 15, 2010 6:15 AM -
On the first computer that hosts the shared folder, please go to command prompt.
Issue command
ipconfig /all > Computer1.txt
Open Computer1.txt in Notepad. Copy and paste the file content here.
On the second computer (WinPE), from the command prompt, please issue command
ipconfig /all
and show us results here.
Hint
You can insert UFD (let's say it' drive letter is F:).
You can then isuue command
ipconfig /all > F:\WinPEIpconfig.txt
Open WinPEIpconfig.txt in Notepad. Copy and paste the file content here.
I have a hunch that your WinPE does not contain driver for your network card.
If that is the case you can address the problem in two ways.
1. You can add a driver directly from the WinPE session using command
drvload.exe inf_path
inf_path is a path to the INF file of your driver.
2. You can add a driver to the WinPE image. This means recreating your boot WinPE media
You can use DISM command to perform this task.
More info is here
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd744371(WS.10).aspx
Another hint(s)
1. If you are using physical computers, you may find it more flexible to use UFD boot media instead of CD/DVD.
2. During learning, you may find it beneficial to use virtualized environment.Monday, February 15, 2010 9:04 AM -

OK Sam,
here is your problem.
Computer1 is configured to use
Static IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.51
your other computer "PC", (when it runs normal Windows, not WinPE) is is configured to use
Static IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.19
Since the two computers are in the same subnet
(Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0),
they communicate without a problem.
However, when you boot a second computer with WinPE, the WinPE is configured to obtain IP address automatically. Since you don't have DHCP service on the network, the WinPE computer gets an IP address from the Automatic Private IP Address range (APIPA):
(Autoconfiguration IPv4 Address. . : 169.254.235.11)
Since the two computers are now in different subnets, and APIPA does not assign default gateway, the two computers cannot communicate.
The quick fix.
1. Forget what I said about adding driver, the network card is detected correctly.
2. When you boot from WinPE, issue command:
netsh int ip set address local static 192.168.0.42 255.255.255.0
This will set a static IP address to your network card.
3. Continue with net use command we discussed earlier.
Good luck, and if I may suggest you study some basic networking (like A+ or Network+).

OK Sam,
here is your problem.
Computer1 is configured to use
Static IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.51
your other computer "PC", (when it runs normal Windows, not WinPE) is is configured to use
Static IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.19
Since the two computers are in the same subnet
(Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0),
they communicate without a problem.
However, when you boot a second computer with WinPE, the WinPE is configured to obtain IP address automatically. Since you don't have DHCP service on the network, the WinPE computer gets an IP address from the Automatic Private IP Address range (APIPA):
(Autoconfiguration IPv4 Address. . : 169.254.235.11)
Since the two computers are now in different subnets, and APIPA does not assign default gateway, the two computers cannot communicate.
The quick fix.
1. Forget what I said about adding driver, the network card is detected correctly.
2. When you boot from WinPE, issue command:
netsh int ip set address local static 192.168.0.42 255.255.255.0
This will set a static IP address to your network card.

hi les,
i am really sorry to make you tired.
i set the second computer 's ip address as you said in winpe:
netsh int ip set address local static 192.168.0.42 255.255.255.0
then issue the command on winpe (second computer): ping 192.168.0.51 (the fisrt computer 's ip adress)
and get: reply from 192.168.0.51 :bytes=32 .....
reply from 192.168.0.51 :bytes=32 .....
..
then issue the command on first computer for more times :
ping 192.168.0.42
but the error occured:
the requset time out
the requset time out
..
the first computer could't make connection with second com .unlike the first computer the second computer get reply ...
----
then i enter the following commands on winpe command-prompt:
net use y: \\192.168.0.42\d (d is my shared drive)
error:system error 53 has occured,the network path not found.
i think the winpe could'nt find the networkshared or shared folder (such as d in the above command )
then i try to issue the command so that the winpe command-prompt find the network_shared:
net share d=D:
error: the service name is invalid
more help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2185.
i think the net share doesn't work in winpe .
then issue the command in winpe:
net use u: \\192.168.0.51\d PaaSWWORD (PaaSWWORD , is THE password of first computer)
the error:system error 5 has occurred.
access is denied.
i think my problem resolved by the net share command if this command work correctly in winpe.
but i am sure that it is impossible for me to use winpe,and networkshare....Tuesday, February 16, 2010 11:21 AM -
I'm using WinPE and connecting to a network share on my laptop all the time, so let's try to solve it.
Computer1 Computer2
(LAPTOP) <-- (PC) booted into WinPE
"Server" "Client"
192.168.0.51 192.168.0.42
Computer2 wants to connect to Computer1.
1. On your LAPTOP computer.
Create a folder D:\Images
Move your .wim file to D:\Images
Share folder D:\Images as "Images".
This folder is now accessible from the network as
\\LAPTOP\Images
You did create user Bob as I asked before, didn't you?
You did make Bob a member of Administrators on your LAPTOP as I asked before, didn't you?
You did assign Bob's password a value Pa$$w0rd (or whatever), didn't you?
2. Go to Computer2 (PC)
Boot into WinPE
a) Run command
netsh int ip set address local static 192.168.0.42 255.255.255.0
wait 1 minute
b) Run command
net use u: \\LAPTOP\Images
You should be prompted for username and password
Username: LAPTOP\Bob
Password: Passw0rd (or whatever)
Your wim image should now be accessible as U:\MyImage.wim
You can apply this image to 'PC' using ImageX command, for example
ImageX /apply U:\MyImage.wim 1 C:\
Another advice (sorry if I'm nagging you)
In my town where I live, we have tens of Wireless clubs. We basically share our wireless equipment, we hang on rooftops and teraces, we share Internet access and play games ("Call of Duty" is very popular). You can find many bright people in these clubs willing to share their knowledge about networking. It's a great hobby for technology enthusiasts.- Marked as answer by sam_mh_85 Wednesday, February 17, 2010 4:06 AM
