It works on me. I forgot to press the "F12" initially. Took me a while - had to watch that portion a few times mate. Thanks a million.

might want to review the videos better, and cut out the 7 minute black silence.

problem :
WdsClient: An error occurred while communicating with the Windows
Deployment Services server. Please check to ensure that the server is
optional and that the necessary ports are open on the server's firewall

I need solution please

I thought the idea behind WDS was to setup a golden image on a client, capture it and upload it. This way drivers, and applications are all part of the image. I'm not sure why you would want to import a pure windows dvd?

I am not able to add custom image . Showing not valid install.wim

Really interesting, I got some issues with SCCM, any device can reach the PXE SERVER, so I think I will use WDS again to solve my situation, at this time ... Thank a lot !

you confused me when u said find the windows 8 image. But you loaded windows 10 ..

[da.]

Created 2 groups, client and server.
Loaded 2 boot image, windows server 2019 and windows 10 boot.win
Whatever boot options, I get all the OS of both groups. I wanted to be linked to the proper group.

Hi boss, do you have any idea how to deploy Windows 10 images to NVMe drive laptops via network imaging? I have got 2000 units of laptops using NVMe ssd drive. Tried to use Clonezilla server version, Acronis, aomei and Ghost, but not successful. Searched on the internet, some says the image don't have driver for NVMe, but the image that I have is the latest image been extracted from workable NVMe ssd laptop that I imaged manually. Thanks

You totally missed the setup of the DHCP options... the most important part to make this work. How does a machine know where to boot from?? FAIL
