Yes the disks are active. During WinPE it seems the Dell recovery Partition is set to C: and the windows partition is D:. If I let the computer boot up normally (with Dells image) I see the OSDisk as being C:

C and D are somehow not suitable. The volumes seem to not be bootable. Using diskpart, can you see if the volumes are marked ‘active’ or not?

I can PXE boot, I enter the TS password, then it loads some files and then I get the following: [cid:[email protected]] Looking at the SMSTSLog on the machine, I see that there are errors related to “C:\ not bootable, X: is not fixed drive” but that is all. Because I am using vPro and VNC to see the machine, I can’t copy the log file here. This is a brand new out of the box machine. When I do diskpart I see the OS as being letter D: When I boot into the machine (Dell) the OS is actually C: So I thought this may have something to do with it, but since this does not load the UDI wizard to complete I don’t think this is an issue as the drive will get wiped as part of the TS. This same machine works without issue here in the local office, so I am not sure how to fix this issue. I was hoping it would load into the UDI wizard, but it never makes it there.
