No Task Sequence- Windows 7 PXEBoot

Question

So I am struggling with some new Gigabyte computers that won't install windows.

I've got a SCCM 2012 R2 server setup and I'm trying to install Windows 7 to them.

I've created 'Deploy Windows 7' Device group and added the new computers by their mac address.

They start to load ok, but always fail saying 'No Task sequence, then reboot' I've done the same thing before for other non gigabyte computers and it works fine.

 

I've looked at the smsts.log file and it seems like for some reason SCCM is thinking this computer is computer '10-PC065', which it isn't, and which doesn't have any deployments assigned to it.

 

A snip of the log file:

 

<![LOG[Client Identity: GUID:2F39B52D-E98B-4D02-8F57-FA8E70F08021]LOG]!><time="07:14:57.107+360" date="10-06-2015" component="TSPxe" context="" type="1" thread="1892" file="libsmsmessaging.cpp:6273">
<![LOG[Netbios name: 10-PC065]LOG]!><time="07:14:57.107+360" date="10-06-2015" component="TSPxe" context="" type="1" thread="1892" file="libsmsmessaging.cpp:6289">
<![LOG[Client GUID = GUID:2F39B52D-E98B-4D02-8F57-FA8E70F08021, Netbios name = 10-PC065, State = Known]LOG]!><time="07:14:57.107+360" date="10-06-2015" component="TSPxe" context="" type="0" thread="1892" file="tspolicy.cpp:710">

 

Later in the log file:

 

![LOG[setting wizard error: There are no task sequences available for this computer.]LOG]!><time="07:14:57.263+360" date="10-06-2015" component="TSPxe" context="" type="0" thread="708" file="tsmediawizardcontrol.cpp:1493">

 

So to me, I thought this was the "No Assigned Task Sequence when initiating deployments caused by duplicate SMBIOS GUIDs in System Center Configuration Manager 2007" --yes this article is for 2007 and I'm 2012 R2...but I figured it might be the same issue?

 

Anyway, I ran the command

 

wdsutil /set-server /bannedguidpolicy /add /GUID:2F39B52D-E98B-4D02-8F57-FA8E70F08021

 

This creates the registry entry here for banned guids...HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WDSServer\Providers\WDSPXE

I rebooted everything just to be safe and tried to PXEBoot the trouble computer once again. I get exactly the same error message logged.

 

Any thoughts on what I'm missing? I've tried adding the GUID manually to the registry as well, with and without dashes..

Full SMSTS.log file is attached.
