PENDING SCCM PXE Pending Request ID: [Changing Everytime]

[Siva Krishna]

After pressing F12, It is showing "Windows starting up.." before starting the task sequence(boot2.png). But instead of showing task sequence wizard, it is restarting the machine and going back to "Pending Request ID" page.

All the configurations are made following your pages...
I have also done the below verifications:
- Site-> Software Distribution settings
- DP PXE settings
- Boot image settings
- Machine is in the device collection and targeted to the correct task sequence.

Also attaching SMSPXE log file for your reference. Could you please help me out on the same.

Hi Siva, I see this error in the log file - Error opening file: C:\RemoteInstall\SMSImages\CM100005\boot.CM100005.wim. Win32=32

Go to DP properties > uncheck PXE > restart the server > enable PXE. Whenever you make any changes to boot image, ensure you redistribute the images to DP.

Unchecked and restarting the machine.. By the way, is it a kind of bug for sccm ?

Enabled PXE from DP after restart and re-distributed the boot image and tried pressing F12..."Loading files..."(File: \SMSImages\CMXXXX\boot.CMXXXX.wim) screen and after that "Windows is starting up".. and as soon as it enters a pop-up saying "Preparing network connections", it re-boots and enters Pending Request ID page where the ID number changes everytime

"Preparing network connections", it re-boots and enters Pending Request ID page where the ID number changes everytime
Ensure the network adapters drivers are added to boot image.

 

[Siva Krishna]

Yep. Already in place and updated distribution points too...
