Failed to download PXE Variable File

Question

Thursday, January 11, 2018 3:27 PM

PXE Boot using Task Sequence Media to hook into SCCM server is failing - The screen goes blue says getting network connections and then reboots 

I do have network connection and IP (I am using x64 Boot Image and have injected the x64 network card drivers that I think I needed)

Here is the log file I got off the laptop I am trying to build

Hi,

"The screen goes blue says getting network connections and then reboots"
It may be caused by the network card drive.

I saw a similar issue with "Failed to download PXE variable file", you could refer to the link and have a try:
https://www.windows-noob.com/forums/topic/9715-failed-to-download-pxe-variable-file/

Hope it helps.

"The screen goes blue says getting network connections and then reboots"
It may be caused by the network card drive.

IOW: the Client cannot reach the MP for whatever reasons: missing driver, no IP address, name resolution, firewall, etc
