PXE T04 TFTP Access Violation Error when PXE booting a new laptop,works fine for desktop

[farrukh]

Hi

I am facing a strange problem. Everything is working ok. I can boot and deploy or capture OS via PXE. No error but today I am trying to build a reference machine but its a new bare metal laptop and I am getting error of TFTP Access Violation Error and in smspxe log error is Ignoring req from [010.001.002.010:67] Dest Server:[010.001.001.055]..

 

I have advertised a task sequence to Unknown Computers and in this collection I can see 64 and 32 bit entry and this task sequence works fine If I boot a desktop machine but when I try to pxe boot a laptop it give me ACCESS VIOLATION MESSAGE.. Does unknow computer collection not support laptop or do I need to make any change ???????

 

totally lost and confused.

 

Any help will be really good

 

Regards

First thing is to use a virtual machine when creating the reference machine, then you dont istall complex drivers and stuff. (Vmware, Hyper-V, Xen, VirtualPC anything will do).

 

Have you added the Laptop driver to the Boot image?.

 

Do you use Microsoft DNS?

Have you made sure the BIOS on the machine is up to date?
