Working WDS except 1 PC

[david_willcock1991]

Hi Guys,

 

I've setup WDS many times, this time is the first time I've ever set it up on a network with multiple VLANs and having WDS installed on it's own server, usually I've had it installed on the domain controller.

 

I have it running, it works on multiple VLANs and I've used t to deploy multiple custom images to various Laptops and desktops. My images are x64 UEFI.

 

I have a work bench setup solely for deploying images via WDS. So my Switch and switch port are exactly the same, there's been no network changes and i can still use WDS on other devices successfully.

 

This one PC (Lenovo Thinkcentre Edge72)

 

I've went through BIOS multiple times. I've disabled secure boot and changed the boot time to UEFI Only. I've checked all other settings and nothing else is relevant.

 

I used to get something along the lines of "NBP File too large for memory" Now after fiddling I get "TFTP Error, access violation"

 

I can't seem to get past this for this single machine.

 

Any ideas other than grab a large hammer?

We’ve had this error before on a couple of random devices with no reason.

 

We found upgrading the BIIS overcame the issue despite identical machines on the olde hardware worked without an issue

just trying to update the Bios on it, it keeps failing and I'm not sure why. i made a post regarding it and hopefully someone can help with that issue then i can come back to this one haha. cheers for the advice mate

This. Always the odd random machine that won't PXE boot properly, generally there is a very slight underlying problem too with these machines.

 

Best to chuck them in the bin.

Any that don't boot for me I burn the PXE to cd and boot from that
