Trying to PXE Boot goes no where...

Question

HI,

 

I am new to SCCM so apologies in advance if I'm not clear..

 

We have just started using SCCM 2012 R2, we have deployed Windows 8.1 to Surface Pro 3, I recently cleared out some old testing images now I cannot PXE boot to image new machines. It gets to the point of checking media presence > Media Present > Downloading NBP file then it goes into a loop from IPv4 then IPv6

 

Any help appreciated.

 

Thanks!

I am also experiencing this issue with the Surface Pro 3. I am able to PXE other devices but unable to UEFI boot machines as of Wednesday (was working before that)

did either of you try restarting the windows deployment service ? do any other computers successfully UEFI network boot ? what does the smspxe.log file reveal ?

I was able to work out my issue. As I don't normally have access to the switches I couldn't check the settings that tech support enabled, they applied to config but forgot to save and when there was a power outage the settings reverted. The settings were set again and saved this time and now everything is imaging fine.

 

eltham: If you are deploying to unknown computers make sure that the MAC isnt in SCCM somewhere. Also check to see if the deployment is required, if not you have to be pressing Enter while it boots to do the network boot (the old F12 while PXE).
