WPKG GP not syncronizing at startup on laptop when undocked.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Installed WPKG GP 0.15 on several test machines (workstations, VM & two 
laptops).

OS on all machines = Win 7 Enterprise x64

Have test package installing fine on all but one machine.

The machine in question is a HP 8650W laptop.

Running 'WpkgPipeClient Execute' successfully installs test package.
Running 'Wpkg-GP-Test' successfully installs test package.
Attaching Laptop to Docking station allows WPKG GP to run on startup.

Have tried:
1. Uninstalling/Reinstall wpkg gp & installing via silent install & manual 
install.
2. Uninstall/Reinstall with removing wpgk.xml from System32 dir.
3. Disabling DHCP media sense.
4. Enabling 'Always Wait for network...' local group policy.

None of the above resolve the issue when undocked.

Attached log file with verbosity = 3.

I've exactly the same problems. WPKG-GP 0.15 runs fine on 20 machines but one.

My WPKGServie.log stops only on that machine at the same line as Jeremys do 
(see previous post from Jeremy)!

all machines:
- are stationary desktops and no laptops
- are on XP pro (x86) sp3
- from the same manufactor and the same type
- with 1GBit LAN - no WLAN

Network:
- no AD is used but a samba pdc
- the wpkg networkshare is not public and is restricted for an user called 
"wpkg"


"Running 'WpkgPipeClient Execute' successfully installs test package.
 Running 'Wpkg-GP-Test' successfully installs test package."

I've done the above tests, too. All is fine. I've also tried uninstall / 
install etc.

I've tried also some tests from here:

The first issue would indicate networking issues. What kind of network card do 
you have in the HP?

And for the second issue, I would start to guess at the same. What kind of 
network card do you have?

It's a onboard NForce Ethernet Controller. The Mainboard is an Asus A8N-VM CSN.

Hi, could you try to some newer drivers for the NIC? My guess would be that the 
NIC reports it's up at startup, yet it isn't.

Maybe a firmware update would help as well?

Sorry for the delay in responding concerning the HP.

The NIC is a Intel 82579LM card.

It appears that HP has a driver version that came out in Feb, and Intel has a 
newer version released in March.

I'll try both to see if either make any difference.

Updated drivers per previous comment on the HP 8660W and still no luck.

Again, just to re-iterate, WPGK-GP runs correctly on reboot when the laptop is 
docked, but does not when un-docked (which seems odd to me).

Suggestions?

Implemented "Startup policy processing wait time" set to 30 seconds seems to be 
helping resolve this issue. I can now move forward to broader testing and 
report if this is fully resolved or not.
