Thanks anyweb, looks very useful. I'll save that one :-)

In the end I decided to say fuck it and deleted my servers. I've set up a completely new environment and patched SCCM from 1702 to 1706 and applied a hotfix that was available in the SCCM console, all before doing anything else on the newly created server. Configured everything as it was before and the first VM I tried now see the task sequence and is applying it as we speak. Lesson learned? Don't be hasty and patch your shit.

Hello everyone, I'm currently trying to learn about SCCM and deploying Windows 10 using PXE and MDT, however my clients never seem to get to the task sequence part, instead they just reboot when it says "Preparing network connections". I am able to stop the reboot by pressing F8 and it shows I have an ip, disk looks good using diskpart, can ping sccm fqdn and I'm able to use net use to map a share. I have crawled every possible forum and posts and nothing seems to help, and I really feel like everything is correct and should be working. I hope to get some help from you experts. The clients I have tried to deploy to are a Dell Optiplex 7040 client and Vmware VMs. I downloaded all the necessary drivers for the Optiplex 7040 and the vmxnet3 driver for the VM which I injected into the WinPE x64 boot image. I also tried to PXE boot without any driver in the boot image. I created a user in AD named SCCM_NAA which has been used as the network access account. The firewall has been completely turned off on the SCCM server. Deployed task sequence to All unknown computers and a collection called Windows 10 Deployment containing PC02. SMSTS.log (included in post) - All clients always show the same three possible errors PxeGetPxeData failed with 0x80070005 RegOpenKeyExW is unsuccessful for Software\Microsoft\SMS\Task Sequence GetTsRegValue() is unsuccessful. 0x80070002.
