PXE-E79: NDP is too big

HI All;

I have been using tftpd32 to boot a winpe.wim with great success (mainly thanks to reboot.pro!) but now i have a new machine to get working on my environment when ever i go to PXE boot it with TFTPd32 i get an error stating;

'PXE-E79: NDP is too big to fit in the free base memory'

Thing is that the machine has more phyiscal ram then all the other machine that work fine with my setup?

Any suggestions to try?

Many thanks

You have not shared which files are involved in the process.

Well i am using windowsxp to host tftpd32 that then loads pxeboot.n12 to load my 128meg Winpe.wim.

Is there other files that i need to share?

Thank you for the additional information.

Sometimes I see out-of-memory errors when someone has manually invoked PXE instead of having PXE in the BIOS boot order.  Were you using a special key to invoke PXE, or was it set in the boot order and you didn't touch anything?

Here are some other things you could try:

1. iPXE -> pxeboot.n12
2. iPXE -> wimboot
3. PXELINUX -> pxechn.c32 -> pxeboot.n12
4. PXELINUX -> linux.c32 -> wimboot

Thanks for the tip, i will have a go and see what happens.
