Latitude 5470 - unable to run boot menu

Thread needs solution

I've upgraded to the latest 1666 (PXE server updated) and that solved my issues with Latitude E7470's but now the 5470's won't get load the Acronis Loader.

Any ideas on How to fix this.

Good deal.  Yeah, seems like upgrading over the top does not always start the PXE service.  IN a few cases, people have needed to remove the PXE component completley, reboot, reinstall the PXE component and reboot again and then all is well.  Yours was easier though so am glad to hear you're back in business and the more current drivers in 1666 are working for the NICs in both models.

FYI, if you do find an system where drivers are a problem for the NIC, we keep some USB 3.0 to 10/100/1000 ethernet adapters on hand - they come in really handy for those types of situations, and/or for other tablets (like Surface pro's), where you may not have a physical NIC or a docking station.  Another item we use in the shop are some of the generic "Pluggable" (it's a brand and they work well) USB 3.0 docking stations which also work well for this, but are closer to $100.  Really work nicely though for deployment and they're decent docking stations as well.
