Hello, My 320gig harddisk on Dell Vostro 3550 failed and I got a new one. Fortunately I have a WindowsImageBackup on the network on a WD My Book World, but I cannot get to it. (I installed Windows 7 from the reinstallation DVD on the new harddisk to be able to search for help) I now start Windows 7 from the reinstallation DVD and go to repair. First problem was 0x800704CF, which I solved by installing DELL network drivers (netsh interface show interface, showed I succeeded) Next and current problem is 0x80070035. I did not see any IPs after doing an IPCONFIG /ALL, so I assumed I need to set ipv4. I did this: netsh interface ipv4 set address name="Local Area Connection" source=static address=192.168.0.122 mask=255.255.255.0 gateway=192.168.0.1. However, I get an error message: filename, directory name, or volume syntax error. Any suggestions? (I am contemplating buying an external disk and just copy the image; seems easier) Thank you! Trond

I got part of it. I am running norwegian Win7, and for some reason in CMD, leaving most in english, they changed out "Local Area Connection" to norwegian "Lokal tilkobling" Correct netsh ended up being:netsh interface ipv4 set address name="Lokal tilkobling" source=static address=192.168.0.122 mask=255.255.255.0 gateway=192.168.0.1 Still, I get the error "RPC is not available" (translated from norwegian). Any ideas? Thank you, Trond

Hi, About RPC not available error, this article may helpful to you: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/4494.troubleshooting-the-rpc-server-is-unavailable.aspx And base on my understanding, you want to reimage the system form network backup, but failed to set IP address on your PC.
