WinPE does not pick up IP to display task sequence

[Jizz0]

Ok. I have a boot image (WinPE_x86.wim) which I setup for OSD. Machine boots from PXE and PE starts to load. Then all of a sudden before any advertisements are shown, the machine loops and reboots. I have been able to determine the PE is not picking up an IP unless I run ipconfig /renew from command line. I have the correct network drivers so Im trying to figure out why the TS doesn't run unless I ipconfig /renew.

[Jizz0]

Update: Booting from media with new WinPE (with updated network drivers) works fine. PXE booting is the one having issues unless I ipconfig /renew.

[anyweb]

have you applied any network drivers to the boot.wim image ? the drivers must be Vista network drivers and you must update the distribution points after updating the wim file

[Jizz0]

Vista network drivers have been added to the wim and DP has been updated. Boot media works and PXE booting does not.

[anyweb]

as i said on the technet forums i'll need to see the SMSTS.log file to see whats going on

 

can you attach it here ?

Here is the full log:

here's the problem

 

<![LOG[Failed to download pxe variable file. Code(0x00000001)

 

if you can verify that DNS is working perfectly via nslookup

 

then.....I've seen this happening on Dell's and from google the recommended action i s to load the manufacturer's network drivers in the boot.wim and/or update the bios version to the latest

 

so can you try that ?

Any, thanks for your help in this. The issue has been resolved.

 

Resolution:

Jason Sandys (MS MVP) recommended that I confirm the network switch port was set to enable (STP) port fast... Once the change was made, everything worked fine again.

[anyweb]

ok great stuff, glad it's resolved

Does the client pickup the TFTP Boot? Once it picks up the Boot you should see the IP in the lower left hand corner before it finishes loading the PE. Also if your on a static subnet, you may need to create a DHCP Pool for a certain amount of IPs you may need.
