So this same instance happened to me at work today and I finally decided to try something that I didn't think would have anything to do with it, but I did this just because it bothered me that it was incorrect: -Using SCCM 2012 -Pushing Windows 7 Enterprise (WIM) As stated above: When starting the client, it starts loading the files, says it is initializing the hardware (it detects the network card), then initializing the network connections. Then, the computer reboots. I went into the BIOS and the date and time was completely off. After changing them to the current date and time, it worked just fine and the image was pushed.
