    Hi all,

    I could do with some help on how to troubleshoot this issue. We just purchased 15 x Dell Optiplex 790 slim PC’s and all 15 is set to have the NIC as first boot device. After I have deployed an image to them and they restart for the first time before sysprepping. On some of them i see Booting from local harddrive and then it will restart and then carry on in an infinite boot loop. If i pull the network card and let it boot up it works again and first windows start is completed etc.

    Have anyone has similar behavior and does anyone know how I troubleshoot this? The 15 PC’s should be identical.

    Help please

    Bring out your inner FOG and let it shine.

        If you chain load them it should clear up the boot loop. I have a batch of dells that would boot loop on me till I just chain loaded all my FOG computers and now no problems.
