Thanks Guys got it up and running needed to turn on the boot stack in the bios.

On these dells if you want to keep uefi mode you need to do the following
- Disable secure boot
- Ensure you turn on the uefi net stack on the networking tab (sorry not the right name but I can’t get to the bios right now). There is a check box at the very top of the network page (where you can enable pxe booting) that you need to turn on to get the option to pxe boot in uefi mode.

Moving this to hardware issues.

@Gary-Kulovics Possibly you need to enable netboot in UEFI or hit a different F-key?

The file name should not be in all caps.
Sounds like the network adapter isn’t in the UEFI boot stack. You can either turn it on, or use BIOS based booting as those are it’s settings from the factory.
