There seems to be no shortage of issues with these 755's. The company I worked for just picked up 2 new 755's. I set one up as we needed and pulled an image from it. However when I imaged the other PC it simply sat at a blue screen but didn't pop up the windows log in. After restarting it a few times I get the message "ds_gina.dll cannot be found." I figured this was caused by having used acronis to join it to the domain, so I reimaged without having acronis make any changes yet I still got the same message.

Can anyone give me some insight as to what caused this? I have since set up the second desktop manually, but it would still be good to know for future reference.

We are experiencing the same issue, though we have 20 755's we're about to deploy. After imaging the client and rebooting, we get the error:

User interface Failure
The Logon User Interface DLL ds_gina.dll failed to load.
Contact your system administrator to replace the dll, or restore the original dll.

We can boot to XP safe mode ok.

We were able to get an image created and deployed; we just had to start from scratch. We have solved a few problems by recreating the master image and template.

Support has sent a registry fix for the master, but we were able to get it to work without it. I will update once we try the registry fix.
