Hi Richard,

This may be because the network card is not supported natively by Windows XP.
In order to add the drivers to you RIS server installation see the following
KB article:

Q315279: How to add a third-party OEM network adapter to a RIS installation

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=315279

This has solved my problems with RIS support for Broadcom 57xx nics.

/Cheers
