IPV4 Boot Help Dell XPS
I cannot get these new Dell XPS to load on the boot menu. This IPV 4 via USB setting. What bios setting do I need to toggle on or off for this to appear?
Probably tried everything to get this to appear on some of these newer dells on their updated bios.
No Events found!

There are multiple possible issues -- see here:

@ejn63 That interface shows the old BIOS settings and I have older laptops that work, but these newer XPS series do not for some reason.

What model XPS do you have, and what network adapter? And is your PXE boot image UEFI-compliant?

@ejn63
XPS 15 (9530)
Killer 1650/AX211,B,A,FIORAN seem to be wireless card
If the other laptop worked, it should be compliant

Most imaging is done over a wired connection -- wireless imaging is another matter entirely. What was "the other model" system?
Have you tried connecting a USB-C to Ethernet adapter to see if the UEFI boot sequence detects the PXE image?

As of now, I've only tested the overwired connection, but it does not work.
We don't have any wireless imaging incorporated. The issue is I can't get the PXE to show up on the boot manager.
