Struggling a little bit with getting everything running with this.
Installed on a Dell E6410 and all drivers loaded except one sound card one that refuses.
Got C:, D: and P: as the partitions.
WSM manager and agent services start OK and the system gets to ISID ok apart from it complaining about unable to connect to ISIS in Russian.
Front screen is the same as the one on the OP except WSM is greyed out, and it has ISID1 instead of ISID2 in the bottom left and doesn't list days remaining.
I have three ethernet connections. First is an internal LAN that I have renamed Eth0. This is a Microsoft loopback connector set at 192.168.10.50. Second one is the external LAN which is set to DHCP and the third is the wi-fi WLAN. These configs were set in the drive image and not something I have set.
If I instead rename the external LAN to Eth0 then the system starts in English but sits for hours at the configuring device red text.
I am probably doing something stupid.
Does anyone have any ideas to help get it going?

Ignore Microsoft loopback lan and wifi lan connections.

Your laptop ethernet adaptor is the one that needs to be named Eth0.

then you need to change the ISID mac address to match the mac address of your Ethernet adaptor. Use this procedure:

1. Open a command prompt, type in ipconfig/all and write down the mac address of your Ethernet adaptor.

2. Now change the ISID mac address in the following files, to match the one from step 1 (using notepad or xml editor):

p:\apps\wsm\apps\agent\data\DeviceInventory-ISIDR20000032.xml
p:\apps\wsm\apps\manager\data\DeviceInventory-ISIDR20000032.xml
p:\apps\wsm\apps\manager\data\PXEBootDevices.xml

3. Reboot your computer and after a few minutes ISTA should load up ok (red writing may take a couple of minutes to clear)
