Hey Everyone,

I searched through the forums for quite some time, and haven’t found a solution to my issue. I hope someone can help me. I setup an old Win 2000 server on my bench for imaging. The server is running IIS, DHCP, WSI, etc. I have a couple of 9150SE’s that I need to re-image.

I believe that I may have used the wrong firmware when I initially imaged them, as they will not boot to the desktop now. The first time I performed the firmware upgrade, they connected to the server just fine without any issues. Now however, when they start to PXE boot it skips the PXE boot process and just says “Auto-select Local Boot” and proceeds to the desktop.

I even disabled all boot devices besides PXE and still get the same error. If I load a different firmware, and connect a different device I can upgrade the firmware without any issues. Does anyone have any ideas?? This is driving me crazy!

Thanks!

WSI keeps a log of all imaged devices. Clear that and you should be able to reimage again.

Greetings! My name is Jim Lathan, and I am a nerd, Diginerd is what my friends know me as. I have been with Dell about 20 years serving in many roles; mostly Systems Engineer. My history with Wyse starts years before the Dell acquisition. Before the purchase of Wyse, I and a hand full of system engineers guided dell to desktop virtualization leading to Dell developing its first Thin Client. Having kickstarted the VDI strategy I moved to the Client Product Group where I co-launched Dells VDI-in-a-box and participated in the vetting of the thin client industry which led to Dell purchasing Wyse. Once the acquisition was completed, I moved back into a systems engineer role to help educate and promote the new Dell / Wyse solutions. Years later, I have been active in providing feedback and new product evaluations for Wyse and other VDI related solutions. I am also continuing to educate myself and build experiences with Citrix, VMware, Microsoft, and cloud-based solutions. So, what makes me a Diginerd? My other technical passions is Raspberry Pi’s, 3D printers, laser cutters, Ham radio, and I love to learn about technologies big and small, old and new. My hobbies include renovating Commodore 64s, old school electronics and learning Linux. I also enjoy camping and being with my family. I want to finish by thanking Thomas for a tremendous job of building Techincalhelp. I pledge to you all that I will give it my all and do my best to fill his shoes.
