X240 not pxe booting

I have recently got in the new Lenovo X240 series Thinkpad and I am unable to get it to pxe boot so I can load a Windows 7 Enterprise x64 image. I am using SCCM 2007 for the imaging process and it is set up on Windows 2003 server. I have changed the BIOS settings as follows:
1) Go to BIOS
2) SECURITY tab --> Secure Boot --> set SECURE BOOT to [DISABLED]
3) Go to STARTUP tab --> UEFI/Legacy Boot --> set to [BOTH]
Has anybody got any ideas on this

Hotfix loaded but didn't help.
Found a few articles referring to rebuilding the perf counter library. I ran "lodctr /R" failed first time then worked the second time. I believe the errors:
The Open Procedure for service "WDSTFTP" in DLL "C:\Windows\system32\wdstftp.dll" failed
The Open Procedure for service "WDSServer" in DLL "C:\Windows\system32\wdssrv.dll" failed
The Open Procedure for service "WDSMC" in DLL "C:\Windows\system32\wdsmc.dll" failed
Are gone but PXE boot still fails.
Do you think I might have to uninstall WDS and reinstall? "Using SCCM console to just remove PXE"

Toshiba L755 is the only one that will not PXE BOOT

I have a few host on my network which it has VMWare 10 installed, successively performed deployment into those machines(Hosts and created VM"s). Now, I do have also a Toshiba L755-S5258 that will not complete the process, it does not give any
errors. The following is the messages it gives.
Client MAC ADDR: xx xx xx xx xx xx GUID: XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXX
Client IP:XXX.XXX.X.XX MASK: XXX.XXX.XXX.x DHCP IP: XXX.XXX.X.X

Press F12 for network service boot
Windows Deployment services: PXE boot Aborted.
PXE-MOF: Exiting Intel PXE ROM
This si the only unit that does not follow through with the deployment
Note that I've deleted other machines that I successively deployed to from the Known Computers on Active Directory User and Computers, with not good results
Please any one help me decipher this headache

Hi,
Are your using the WDS for the Windows deploy? A network boot program (NBP) is the first file that is downloaded and executed as part of the network boot process and it controls
the beginning of the boot experience (for example, whether or not the user must press F12 to initiate a network boot). NBPs are specific to both the architecture and firmware of the client. You must accounting the screen press F12 to allow the system boot
from the WDS. The VMware® workstation PXE booting issue please ask your software vendor.

This morning came in to find clients were not getting there bootfiles through PXE. I checked the logs to find the following events related to WDS.
The Open Procedure for service "WDSTFTP" in DLL "C:\Windows\system32\wdstftp.dll" failed
The Open Procedure for service "WDSServer" in DLL "C:\Windows\system32\wdssrv.dll" failed

Type 2 Virtual Machine in Hyper-V will not PXE boot with WDS

Hi
Bit of a wierd scenario this but I'm doing a bit of a lab experiment kind of thing. The setup is as follows:
VMWare Workstation 10 with Windows Server 2012 R2 running as a virtual machine. In VMW10 I have a NAT network interface and a Bridging interface set to load with the virtual machine. These seem to work fine (although the NAT doesn't seem to want to connect
to the internet but that's why the bridging one is there in addition).
Server 2012 is configured with the following roles:
ADDS, DHCP, DNS, Hyper-V, Printer, WDS
I have correctly configured WDS to work on the same machine as DHCP and I can get PXE boot working with WDS on a Type1 Virtual Machine in Hyper-V using the Legacy Network adapter. My problem is when I try and PXE boot on a Type2 Virtual Machine (this type
is new in R2 and should eliminate the need for a legacy network adapter) using the same network interface that I used for the Type1 machine, I get an IP address from DHCP but WDS doesn't seem to respond. Instead I get the "PXE-E16: No Offer Received"
message. I have tried just about everything I can think of and spent the whole day trying to figure out why this is the case but came up with nothing. Has anyone else encountered this or can anyone shed any light on the matter?
Many thanks in advance

"VMWare Workstation 10 with Windows Server 2012 R2"and "Server 2012 is configured with the following roles: ADDS, DHCP, DNS, Hyper-V, Printer, WDS"
Hyper-V is not supported to be run as a VM. It is a Type 1 hypervisor, which means it works on the bare metal. You have it running as a VM on a Type-2 hypervisor, so it has no access to the bare metal. Yes, VMware may have made it so some
things work in that environment, but it is not a supported (or tested) environment for Hyper-V.

E7250 will not PXE Boot with SCCM 2012 R2

Just received our new version Dell laptop the E7250. We are using SCCM 2012 R2 OSD to build our computers. We currently have 6 Dell computers (2 desktops 7010 and 790 and 4 laptops 6410, 6420, 6430 and 5440) that are using the same WIM file. Never had a problem with the network drivers until now with the E7250. It loads the WIM file but as soon as it says "preparing network connection" it fails. I hit F8 and try an IPCONFIG and I don;t see an IP address. So I'm thinking Network Driver issue, so I add the network driver to the Boot image and still can't get past "Preparing Network Connections". Any ideas?
Thanks

I got the same issue, both the Dell and Intel drivers only have Intel L217-LM drivers, the Latitude E7250s I've got need L218-LM drivers. I've tried older versions of the family driver package from Intel, but no good.
Perhaps its not the driver packages but rather SCCM 2012 R2 that doesn't pick up the 218 drivers in the packages, but I'm stuck.

Can't PXE boot Windows 8 models

We load the PCs with our own OS image as they come in. The process works off a PXE (network) boot image.
We recently started ording the same X230s, only with a Windows 8 license. Lenovo indicated that there should be no changes needed with our image.
However, we can not PXE boot these machines. We shut them down and bring them back up with an F12 on the bios splash screen and select PCI LAN.
We get a message saying >>Start PXE over IPv4
It hangs there a while, then tries IPv6, then goes back to the boot device ment.
We got a solid green and a flashing yellow light on the network connector. And we've PXE booted off of this connection many, many times
What are we missing?
Thank you.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hey there DOTJKO,
I've seen over on another thread, that they were having the same issue. They were able to get the PXE Boot process to finally go by:
1) Go to BIOS
2) SECURITY tab --> Secure Boot --> set SECURE BOOT to [DISABLED]
3) Go to STARTUP tab --> UEFI/Legacy Boot --> set to [BOTH]
Hopefully this assists you in getting those X230s loaded up with your image. Good Luck, and keep us posted on your progress.

SLM2005: PXE booted clients freeze up, fail to reboot

I use the SLM2005 at a couple of locations, but at one of them the Thin Clients behind it freeze up and will not PXE boot when cycled. It never worked quite right, and I always assumed it was some bug in Linux LTSP, but the problem went from intermittent and infrequent to intermittent and frequent to persistent in the span of about three weeks. Bypassing the switch seems to resolve it. My assumption is now that the switch is in some way defective, especially in light of the fact that a nearly identical setup at another location does not suffer from this issue.
The problem is that Cisco phone support has expired for this product, and at $75 it is about the same price as a new one.
I was thinking about trying a firmware upgrade, and just messing around with the firmware in general, but as they say "time is money". When I buy a switch, managed or not, I expect it to "just work".
What would you guys do if you were me?

I've also just encountered a failure to associate using LXE MX9 scanners with a Summit card. Moving the setting from CCX FULL to CCX OPTIMIZED in the SCU resolves but is not a recommendation from Honeywell/LXE. have you had any response from TAC or Teklogix?

PXE boot not working on some models

We have a very strange situation that I was hoping someone could shed some light on.
setup:
ZDM 7 IR4HP1
multiple VLANS
situation:
PXE boot does not work on any model workstation other than dell 760 if connected to the network in any valn other than VLAN1 where the server resides.
dell 760 can be PXe booted in any vlan
any other model machine can only be PXE booted in VLAN 1 which is where the PXE server is.
PXE debug log shows nothing recorded at all from machines other than the 760's
non-760 desktops will recieve the Proxy address of the PXE server, etc, but for some reason they show multiple gateways and the correct gateway is always last. the extra gateway numbers are coming from switches.
I have no clue as to why dell 760's will PXE boot perfectly every time and in any VLAN (they only get one gateway and it's the correct one) but any other type of machine will fail every time if they are not in VLAN 1
sometimes the non-760's will get PXE error E78 No boot file name ...
other times no PXE error but an error "could not contact the boot server"
HELP!

I have just encountered this issue myself (ZCM10.2.1). I have no idea where the issue is coming from, within windows, linux or osx its perfect... Today I blew away my entire ZCM install (working on migrating) but still have the same issue!!! Were using HP Procurve switches using OSPF for routing, I just restarted our core cisco router but can't verify if it helped, I'll let you know.

PXE boot UEFI Thinkpad 10 not working

struggling with this problem for some time now..
saw some related threads but not really providing an answer
have one customer who bought a bunch of Thinkpad 10 machines from lenovo and the purpose is to install them with a 8.1 SOE, untill now the only thing that works is to use a standalone usb medium
our setup is SCCM 2012 R2 on top of Server 2008R2 using infoblox instead...
the thinkpad 10 has the latest ATOM cpu and is definitely a 64 bit UEFI machine
we also noticed that some switches have problems to (try and ) boot the UEFI machines, dont know why yet
the issue is that the only thing we see during a UEFI only PXE boot is that the NBP file gets succesfully downloaded (even twice) and then just switches back to the next bootoption.
i've checked:
-PXE boot another UEFI device: same symptom
-PXE boot legacy devices: ok
-changed the bootfile in option 67 to the efi file: same symptom
-all files are in the smsboot\x64 folder
lenovo support now wants me to do this: include a winPE x64 image that supports UEFI and then run the following command on the server:
"WDSUTIL /New-MulticastTransmission /FriendlyName:"WDS Boot Transmission" /Image:"Microsoft Windows PE (x64) Win8" /ImageType:Boot /Architecture:x64
/TransmissionType:AutoCast"
but I don't see what UEFI/pxe has to do with multicasting and why should I change something on wds if UEFI boot under similar circumstances works in other implementations?
any more useful ideas folks?

if you are using dhcp options, remove them, instead configure iphelpers to point to the server hosting your pxe enabled DP (should be running server 2008r2 or later).

2012 Guides |
2007 Guides | I'm on Twitter > ncbrady
Niall,
this was the solution in our case.
the problem was to convince the network guys to try this for us...
since we are using IP helpers it works to do the PXE boot for UEFI

Task Sequence Wizzard Will Not Launch During PXE Boot

We are preparing for a firm-wide PC refresh. We just purchase several brand new Dell OptiPlex 7020 Desktop computers and I'm trying to put our image on these systems.
I downloaded the driver CAB file for this model computer, created\imported the drivers into SCCM.
Unfortunately, when I PXE boot from the new PC, it appears to load the WIM file, but the Task Sequence Wizard does not display. It just displays the System Center Configuration Manager white screen. The task sequence wizard never appears and then the
PC eventually reboots on its own.
Any advice would be most appreciated..

PXE Boot a Hyper V Guest - Not receiving a DHCP IP Address

Hello Everyone,
I am trying to PXE boot a Hyper V guest, but am not getting a DHCP IP Address. Eventually the DHCP query times out and loads into the guest OS I have manually installed. See the PXE Boot Screen below. When in the installed guest OS, I do receive
a DHCP IP address as shown below. I am utilizing the Legacy Network Driver. I don't think it is related to VLAN identifier, but tried with/without and still no go. Any ideas what could be preventing this? Please let me know.
PXE Boot Screen:
CLIENT MAC ADDR: 00 15 5D F2 99 0C GUID: B366BBA1-D503-4D64-A77E-77474F3A2193
DHCP.........-
PXE-E51: No DHCP or proxyDHCP offers were received.
DHCP IPCONFIG in Guest OS:
Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:
   Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : mywork.com
   IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 10.242.242.251
   Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.128
   Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 10.242.242.129
Thanks,

Hi Ron,
A solution is provided in this thread. You may need to have a look on the steps below:
• PXE-E51: No DHCP or proxyDHCP offers were received.
The client did not receive any valid DHCP, BOOTP or proxyDHCP offers. To resolve this issue, check each of the following network configuration items:
DHCP services are not available on the network to which the PXE-enabled NIC is connected.
A DHCP proxy or IP helper address is not configured for the subnet on which the PXE client is connected.
The switch port connected to the PXE NIC is running Spanning Tree Protocol, EtherChannel Protocol, or Port Aggregation Protocol and is thus not activated immediately when a link is detected. This forces the DHCP request from the PXE client to timeout.
DHCP is available on the network, but PXE is not.
The network cable is not attached to the PXE-enabled NIC on the target server.

PXE Boot with UEFI. WDS not sending WinPE wim

I am trying to test PXE booting on devices that only have UEFI and no CSM support.
We are running Windows Server 2008 R2 in our environment.
On the DHCP server, we have option 66 and 67 set. If I change option 67 to SMSBoot\x86\wdsnbp.com and boot a traditional BIOS system (non UEFI) the SCCM server responds and gives me the option to hit F12 and PXE boot. This works without issue and can deploy
images.
I then change option 67 to SMSBoot\x64\wdsmgfw.efi and use a machine that is pure UEFI (meaning UEFI without any legacy support / CSM). The system appears to successfully download the wdsmgfw.efi and font file via TFTP as shown in the WDS logs. However, it
then goes to the next sreen where it is trying to contact the WDS server. AFter retrying for a while it will error out with error 0x102 which I believe translates to ERROR_TIMEOUT
The SMSPXE.log repeats the following:
Client boot action reply: <ClientIDReply><Identification Unknown="0" ItemKey="2046820352" ServerName="" ServerRemoteName=""><Machine><ClientID>8908f9c4-c345-49ba-b137-af7b0b983584</ClientID><NetbiosName/></Machine></Identification><PXEBootAction

Any idea what may be going on?

Hey,
I am having the following situation:
DP1 = Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 (Standalone Primary Site Server SCCM 2012 SP1 CU2)
DP2 = Windows Server 2012
UEFI Client: Microsoft Surface Pro (with Microsoft Surface Network Adapter)
BIOS Client: HyperV Virtual machine with Legacy network adapert
DP1; DP2 and DHCPServer all in Subnet1.
(IP Helper is set for DHCPServer for DHCP and for DP1 & DP2 for DHCP and BootP - I checked serveral times if everything is right here)
UEFI Client and BIOS Client in Subnet2.
Situation1 -- Using no DHCP Options and both DPs(DP1 and DP2) WDS running:
UEFI Client - Boots perfectly (contacting Server DP2)
BIOS Client - Boots perfectly (contacting Server DP2)
Situaion2 -- Using no DHCP Options and WDS just running on DP1:
UEFI Client - Does not boot (no error information is provided)
BIOS Client - Does not boot (no Bootfilename recieved)
Situation3 -- Using DHCP Options(Option 66="IP of DP1" Option 67="SMSBoot\x86\wdsnbp.com") and WDS just running on DP1:
UEFI Client - Does not boot (no error information is provided)
BIOS Client - Boots perfectly (contacting Server DP1)
Situation4 -- Using DHCP Options(Option 60="PXEClient" Option 66="IP of DP1" Option 67="SMSBoot\x86\wdsnbp.com") and WDS just running on DP1:
UEFI Client - Boots perfectly (contacting Server DP1)
BIOS Client - Does not boot (taking hours to recieve dhcp options..)
My problem is i am having a lot of location with 2008 R2 SP1 server only (this is why situation 1 is not enough for me :-( ).
Based on this article:
http://ccmexec.com/2013/05/configmgr-2012-uefi-and-pxe-boot-support/
x64 UEFI Devices should work with Server 2008 R2 SP1 (not only Server 2012).
Interesting is I am having ALL files on Server 2008 R2 SP1 like they are on Server 2012 (in SMSBoot\x86 folder, too!)??
Some more ideas?
Thank you for help

Task Sequence fails on "Apply Driver Package" when PXE-booting but not with bootable media

I have an issue where my Task Sequence fails during 'Apply Driver Package' when PXE-booting but works ok when booting from CD or USB-stick. It fails withe error code 0x80070002 and when pressing F8 and checking the ipconfig there's a 169.254.x.x address.
Somehow it looses it's real ip during the process.
I'm grateful for any advice!

Please enable verbose logging for Task sequence, then upload the smsts.log to Skydrive.
0x80070002 error is too generic, which cannot be used to determine the cause.

Yoga 2 Pro PXE boot?

Looking to PXE boot a Yoga 2 Pro so I can create/restore images with Microsoft WDS. Since Yoga 2 Pro does not have a built-in Ethernet jack, does anyone know if it's possible to do this with a USB Ethernet adapter?
Would it have to be a Lenovo-branded apdater, or can any brand Belkin, TP-Link, etc) work?

How did you get this to work sir?? I have been trying for a solid week and it never see the Lenovo ethernet dongle as a boot option no matter what I choose in the BIOS. I have the X1 Carbon and it works as you would expect it to. But it NEVER works on the YOGA 2 PRO. CAn anyone help me?? The BIOS clearly has an option to boot the dongle thats made by LENOVO but the dongle never ever shows any lights no matter what port its in or regardless of the settings vchanged in the very small bios. I have wasted atleast 60 hrs + trying to figure out how to boot with it and it doesnt work at all. I had to end up making a bootable discover USB to help it find my wds server. Altough now when ever I attempt to drop an image to it it fails right at FINISHING up and finishes with a "corrupt installation file" error message. To make things more confusing is I can drop this same "Corrupt" image to our X1 carbons without a problem. Can anyone guess why??
