PXE menu not loading on Latitude 3540

It appears to be drawing an IP before that screen. Attached is the two screens I see. I apologize for the poor quality, but it happens so fast that I couldn’t catch it when it was happening with a keystroke, so I shot video on my cellphone, and then took screenshots.
All of this is happening on the same switch as 2 other computers that aren’t having this issue, and I have tried changing this computers patch cable to a port on the switch that one of the others was using just to make sure that it wasn’t a problem with a specific port config.

-
There was an update from A08 to A09. I updated it, same thing.

-
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but update what to 3077?

Does it matter which way I do it?
-
Nevermind, upgrade in progress.
-
It is still timing out. I would suggest that it is just a problem with this model, but I have already uploaded twice and downloaded once to and from a couple of laptops of the same model. Although now when it times out, it doesn’t do a full reboot, it kicks it straight to a windows startup.
-
I don’t know what happened, but now after upgrading, my optiplex 380 won’t boot to Fog. It times out like it is a TFTP problem, but I rebooted the Fog machine and reset the tftp service on the Fog machine. I am about to leave this school and won’t be back until the 16th since they are at spring break next week. So, while I appreciate any responses, just know that I won’t be able to try anything until then.

Any news on this?? Please make sure TFTP is running and listening on the server:
[CODE]sudo netstat -antup | grep “:69”[/CODE] -
The server is running just fine now. It has imaged a few computers, but it was still never able to be seen by that laptop, so I just built an image from scratch for it so that I could get it to the teacher that needed it. At this point I think there is something wrong with the switch in this room (rather old 3com switch). I am getting the superintendent to buy new switches, but one thing at a time (because of the price tag).
