Hello Srikanth.sri !!

Thanks for writing to the TechNet forums.

I remember this issue and I have seen that. It must be the SMSBoot folders under the RemoteInstall which should have the following files:

x64\abortpxe.com
x64\bootmgfw.efi
x64\bootmgr.exe
x64\pxeboot.com
x64\pxeboot.n12
x64\wdsnbp.com
x86\abortpxe.com
x86\bootmgr.exe
x86\pxeboot.com
x86\pxeboot.n12
x86\wdsnbp.com

 

Try the follwoing steps:

Stop the WDS service

Under the TEMP directory rename the  PXEBootfile to PXEBootfileold

Then restart the WDS and see if that works for you !!!

 

Thanks

That's the reason you are unable to boot in the PXE Boot, 

 

Try the follwoing steps:

Stop the WDS service

Under the TEMP directory rename the  PXEBootfile to PXEBootfileold

Then restart the WDS and see if that works for you !!!

 

Thanks

Hi... I had the same problem. I solve it copying the misses file from x64 folder to x86. And then the boot give me another error message talking about a file from Temp\ directory. I try to rename the file begining with "x86x64...." to the exactly file name that was giving me on error... It works... Now I'm installing the OS
