I am getting the following message everytime after imaging a new pc with snap deploy. The image successfully copied to the pc, then the pc reboots, and the Acronis Snap Deploy box pops up with it's message about "The system is being configured in accordance with.... " then another box pops up and says: " A duplicate name exists on the network ". I have to click OK on this box to get it to go away. If I don't click ok, the computer just freezes up here. I've let it sit for hours and nothing changes.

It happens whether I image one pc or 3 at a time. The computer name is unique in each case and not re-used, (I change it each time before deploying an image) so I'm hoping someone can explain why I would get this message each time I image a pc.

I'm using Snap Deploy build 2105 to Dell Optiplex 745 pc's, the OS is Windows XP SP2, and we are in a Windows Domain.
