NIC does not work
The onboard NIC does work, but it does not work when trying to network boot. The NIC works while in Windows, and in the BIOS, but when I try to boot via this NIC it will not boot and the system boots into the EPSA test. I have made sure that the NIC is enabled and PXE boot is allowed in the BIOS, I have reset the BIOS to the default, I have updated the BIOS, the chipset, and the NIC drivers. I ran the EPSA through the test and there were no errors. Anything else I can try? If all else fails then I will reach out to our Dell rep even thou this system is out of warranty only by 2 months.

Update if boot via PXE IPv6 the NIC comes on, says Media is present but our SCCM instance does not support ipv6. If booting PXE ipv4 the NIC lights do not come on. Also, before when I wrote my original message when I was in the BIOS the NIC lights were on, but as of now they are not until as I said when rebooting the machine, pressing F12 and going to PXE boot Ipv6 only. I am unable to change the boot mode to legacy to see if that fixes the issue.
