Excellent, Thanks for the replies guys. I will give this a go shortly and report back. It has been doing my head in for quite some time. Cheers, Ian.

Hi All, I have been reading through this forum quite a bit, including using the guides available to setup a couple of SCCM installs (firstly with 2007, and now with 2012). My current issue is with getting PXE to work. In my SMSPXE.log file when trying to PXE boot a machine, i get the following messages: sending with winhttp failed; 80072efe SMSPXE 30/10/2012 3:38:24 PM 1588 (0x0634) Failed to get information for MP: https://FQDN. 80072efe.

Unspecified error (Error: 80004005; Source: Windows) SMSPXE 30/10/2012 3:39:35 PM 1588 (0x0634) I've replaced the server name with FQDN, but you can see the errors I am having. Some things I have tried are: removing and re-adding the Distribution Point changing the date on some of the certificates (to hopefully generate new ones). removed and re-installed the WDS role. rebooted. restarted WDS service. PXE booting has worked once for me, but when it did the task sequence i was trying to run (build and capture) failed, but before I had a chance to look into that, PXE stopped working. I have tried this on a couple of different machines, and at the client end, I get the following message: Status: 0xc000000f Info: An error occured while attempting to read the boot configuration data. I am at my wits end trying to get this to work, I have searched online, and the only solution it looks to be is to rebuld the server, which I really do not want to do. (if i do though, i will wait for SP1). If I haven't provided enough info, please let me know, and I will be sure to post it. Thanks in advance!
