      @Chubert Have you tried to do a hardware compatibility test on these computer (I think its the last menu item on the iPXE boot menu)

      Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

            @Chubert If the compatibility test passes.

            Then let me read the tea leaves a bit. Since these are new computer that probably came with Win10 on it with uefi firmware. You probably moved it back to legacy (bois) mode and then loaded Win7 on it. And now you are trying to capture the image?

            If so, the disk structure needs to be cleaned up because you have mbr parts and gpt bits left over. You will need to do a debug capture (I don’t remember how to do that on 1.2.0 anymore) which should drop you to a command prompt on the 3470. From there you will want to run the command fixparts /dev/sda that will flush out the gpt bits.

              It Passed.
              It was running WIN10. I moved it back to legacy and turn off secure boot, before loading WIN7.
              During the process of loading WIN7, I cleared all the old Partitions.

                @Chubert OK called that pretty close then.

                Yeah deleting the partitions doesn’t purge the gpt bits. The debug deploy/capture may be located under the advanced link on the host definition for this target computer. You do want to do a debug capture so it will drop you to the FOS Engine (the software the captures and deploys images on the target computer) so you can run the fixparts command

                    @Chubert sorry was updating my last post. Debug capture is the easiest way. That will drop you to a command prompt on the target computer then run the fixparts command below.

                          @Chubert There are some bits just need to be flushed out. The easies way is to use the fixparts command. If you reload windows you will end up in the same spot and only have accomplished just burning time.

                          IF you want to reload windows, use a brand new hard drive or one that has never seen a gpt format. That is the way around this issue.

                          You may be able to clean the disk (destructively) using this process. I say “may” because I haven’t done this route I use fixparts. https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc725797(v=ws.11).aspx The downside is that you will have to reload windows and recreate your reference image.
