Starting Task Sequence

Question

I tried to deploy my task sequence with windows 7.

 

The Client machine booted correctly from PXE and has a connection to the sccm Server.

Then it runs the "Initializing Windows PE"

post-1-1247581307.jpg

After that for just a second the message "Preparing Network configuration" apears, than it cancelled the process.

 

One time it runs fine and then this problem...

We build the Drivers, drivers package, task sequence, advertisement, collections new...

We restarted the server many times...

 

Has anyone an idea?

you need to add the correct NETWORK drivers to your boot images and then update the dp's for those boot images (both x86 and x64)

 

cheers

If you have enabled F8 support in your boot image you can press F8 and check your network settings firstly..might be a DNS/DHCP failure..

Thanks for the answers...

 

Drivers shouldnt be a problem, for the WinPE Packages we have 154 driver included, all from the dell site (we are using Dell-Computers).

 

F8 support ist enabled.

I checked the the network settings in the console, it was really weird...

first it didnt saw the network card, after a short brake i tried again and it showed the right network settings.

Coult it be, that the client is the slow too handle it?

If your ip settings look correct i would first try to ping the SCCM Site on its FQDN for example: testserver.testdomain.test

If this succeeded i would look into the SMSTS.log at this stage the log should be found in the %temp% folder. Notice that you might have to cancel the TS before you can open the logfile.

The Log ist looks like a little help...

 

I also checked de cab-driver file from Dell.

I have the newest one, but it seems that i used the winPE 2.1 on the clients...

For Win7 there is the winPE 3.0, could that be the problem?

 

I'm now trying to update my boot image...

I found the problem on my own...

 

In my "Task Sequence" at the end, where the software packages would be installed, was a package (PRO0004D) which wasn't included in the DP...

 

I was too long looking at the wrong place :P
