When using the common image on models with the ESS Allegro audio controller, MIDI files will
not play correctly.
When using the same image across the N400c, N410c, N600c, N610c, N800c, and N1000c
models, the ADI SoundMax software should be removed from Control Panel > Add/Remove
Programs for all operating systems.
When a preinstall image is moved from the N410c to the N610c, the video driver will have to be
manually configured. This problem may result in the operating system enabling the basic VGA
driver.
In environments where images are shared across N410c and N610c, it is recommended that the
preinstall image from the N610c is used. If the image from the N410c needs to be used, the ATI
M7 video driver for the N610c should be manually configured prior to deployment.
When a preinstall image is moved from the N410c to the N610c, the audio driver will have to be
manually configured. This problem may result in a loss of audio functionality.
In environments where images are shared across N410c and N610c, it is recommended that the
preinstall image from the N610c is used. If the image from the N410c needs to be used, the ADI
