Sorry. More information...

Hardware: Motherboards vary, video cards vary but are all PCI, all machines have either 32 or 64 MB of ram, all processors are between Pentium 200 and Pentium II 266

Version: PXES 0.9

Resolution: Varies between 800x600 and 1024x768

Configuration: Don't know what you mean really. The machines are booting off of a Windows 2003 TFTP server, and have local drive/USB support enabled. Our images were built with only the RDP option selected, and autodetects the video/monitor settings.

You didn't provide some low level details to understand your problem
(hardware, versions, resolution, configuration, etc.) and perhaps giving
some solution.
