Optiplex 990 with A20 BIOS - No UEFI "Onboard NIC" boot option for PXE Booting
We have 4 classrooms of Optiplex 990s and I intend to image them with Windows 10.
I upgraded the BIOS to the latest version A20, and there is no UEFI "Onboard Nic" boot option only a Legacy one. This means that it won't PXE Boot for a UEFI image.
Am I missing something?
Is it supposed to have it?
Thanks

Hi Heidi,
Thank you for writing to the Dell Community Forum.
Request you to please go to the system BIOS and change the below settings,
Under Settings > General
Select Boot sequence
Change the boot list option to UEFI
Under boot sequence, place a check mark on Onboard NIC
Under Settings > System Configuration
Select Integrated NIC
Under Integrated NIC, select the option Enabled w/PXE
Select SATA Operation
Under SATA Operation, select the option AHCI
Save the settings and then try to image the Windows 10 operating system.
Kindly get back if there are any further queries.
