Can’t PXE boot after installing SCCM R2 Components

Recently I had a problem whereby just after installing the R2 Components for SCCM, I could no longer get machines to PXE boot.

 I would get 3 PXE errors in a row, they were…

 

PXE-T01: File not found

PXE:E3B: TFTP Error – File not found

PXE-M0F: Exiting Intel Boot Agent 

 

The solution was:

1.       Stop the WDS service

2.       Remove all boot images from distribution points through the SCCM console

3.       Clean out all files in C:Windowstemp

4.       Add new distribution points to the boot images and copy the images again

5.       Start the WDS service

Check x:RemoteInstallSMSBoot to ensure the PXE boot files (such as PXEBOOT.com etc) have been copied. 

Try to PXE boot your machine again.

Nokia E71 & “Accepting” Bluetooth Connections

I recently got a new mobile phone, the wonderful Nokia E71.  For the last 3yrs I’ve been using a Windows Mobile phone.  I’m still waiting for the new HTC Touch Pro 2 to come out in Australia – but until then, I figured a company provided Nokia would get me through.

I have my Nokia paired with my laptop, which I use for work.  Quite often I work at customer sites, and I’m reliant on my own internet connection.  Using internet connection sharing through bluetooth is a wonderful thing, but by default, the Nokia phone keeps asking if I want to accept an incoming bluetooth connection from my laptop.  This can get quite annoying. 

Here’s how to get around it, and to authorised a bluetooth paired device, so you don’t keep getting prompted on the phone to accept the connection…

DreamensioN presents Universal Language 025 (/w DJ Ange guest mix)

Welcome to Universal Language 025 – this months episode is the start of a new era for the series. From now on Universal Language will be a 2hr show featuring a 1hr mix by me, and a 1hr guest mix. Occasionally I will be filling the full 2hr slot.

In this months installment, I am very proud to present a special guest mix by DJ Ange.  This 2hr show, is one not to be missed.

My set starts out with a deep and progressive sound, a little slow, but very easy to get into the swing of it. As I build the set, I play some fantastic new tracks I’ve discovered. The deep progressive sound is coloured with beautiful vocal tracks. At the half way point, I step things up just a little notch with Wippenberg, as I do a very long blended mix into Dousk’s “Greenwater”. The Richard Durand remix of the classic “Madagascar” overlays beautifully out of “Greenwater”, and I blend it deep into the next track (Forward Motion) featuring the vocals of Marcie. My set finishes off with a beautiful vocal track by Paul van Dyk, Starkillers and Austin Leeds. If you haven’t heard this track before, you need to! It is simply one of the best vocal tracks I’ve heard in a long time.

DJ Ange’s set then comes in with a high energy punch, as she plays a massive uplifting set. In her set, she features some brilliant remixes of her own, and her very own productions. This girl has talent, and you need to check it out.
