How can I go about getting this issue resolved, so that WHS restore utility will work with the Acer Aspire One? I would think Microsoft would want this to be workable. With the AAO being the best selling netbook currently on the market - it seems silly to purchase a different network card.

Perhaps I can use the driver for a different but similar chipset that is known to work? Is there a list of such adapters known to work when booting into the WHS system restore client? (NOT a list of Lan chipset that work with WHS OS - that's not the problem). Installing a different LAN connector on a netbook is almost impossible - no internal motherboard connectors, no express/PCMCIA slot - the only thing that could work, is a USB to RJ11 style lan adapter. My LAN driver is a signed Microsoft driver. I tried checking the XP hardware compatability list Stephen linked to on Philip Churchill's MWHS site, but I get errors tying to load the list. Everything works great on this tiny little netbook - except I still can't do a system restore with WHS, because as described above, the LAN light actually goes out as the restore program initialises. Turns out the issue of the display going completely blank was actually fixed by a BIOS upgrade. I'm back - reviving this thread, as I have once again purchased an Acer Aspire One 150 series with Windows XP. ItВ may cost less (time=money) to purchase a known-good network adapter just for restore. Is this network card in the HCL? (see ) NetworkВ adapters are cheap.

I have seen resolution achieved in other threads when a newer version of the driver (harvested from a subsequent Windows Vista installation) was used. (I am suprised by the lack of LEDВ because on my newer ethernet equipment the port LED lights up on physical connection independent of the OS.) The hardware is not properly initialized by the WinPE driver.

Could also be storage drivers which are the actual problem, there'sВ a fewВ threads on this forum on similar problems with tablets.Д«rubber, this is aВ Network Driver Interface Specification (NDIS) issue. You could tryВ using Vista drivers for the NIC. Most likely though it's some driver issue. OK, do you have a DHCP server in your network (often modem / router works as DHCP server)? This is requirement for restore to work.ДЄlso you could try making a direct connection between your WHS and the client using a crossed pair UPT cable (get it from your local computer storeВ for a few bucks) Thanks to all who provided me some clues. Is there a way I can post it as an attachment here? If anyone with an Acer Aspire One wants a copy of my working WHSDFR folder - let me know. Upon loading the working driver, the LAN light came on again! This time the driver was correctly specified as an RTL810 2E driver - NOT a RTL810 1E driver - which never worked with the restore program - but typically shows up as the LAN driver. When it came time to load the drivers, I scanned for them and the restore program found the new drivers. I put the WHSDFR folder right onto the same flash drive that contained the latest WHS resptore program. Then - reboot the netbook, save a new backup, and retreive the Windows Home Server Drivers for Restore folder from that backup.

I did so through the driver update option in the device manager. The vista driver must be manually installed.

Note that the auto vista driver installation program will not install drivers in Windows 7. I went to Realtek's website, and doing a little digging found the exact drivers for the PCI express INTEGRATED chipset here:

Using the drivers from Windows Update, which are WHQL certified - the procedure still fails. I now have the 32 bit Windows 7 beta installed on the Aspire One. I even tried regardless to do a backup, and then try the WHSrestore drivers from the backup to no avail. I was, however, unable to load the vista drivers in XP - device manager told me they were not working. Well - the solution did lie in the Vista drivers.
