I will certainly post if/when I get a resolution. Deleting a problem machine from ConfigMgr did not help my situation. In fact, the situation is more intermittent than I was led to beleive. It seems to impact two site DPs in particular; however, one of the sites has a machine that will PXE boot without issue.
I did wireshark traces of both a failing machine and a successful machine at one site. The failed machine attempts to download one data block over and over again and finally fails. Should I resort to remvoing the PXE point and reinstalling?
