Client stops booting at the Windows logo

When the client boots and consistently stops at the Windows Logo without reading data from the server, or if one PC stops at the CCBoot version screen and can't boot, here are some possible causes and solutions:

  1. NIC Driver Issues:
    - Ensure the client NIC driver is up to date. You can download the latest driver from the vendor's website.
    - Sometimes, installing a "RISC" type driver (such as for NVIDIA or BROADCOM NICs) may be necessary.
  2. IP Address Conflicts:
    - If the client IP conflicts with other LAN IP addresses, reassign a different IP to the client.
  3. Motherboard Compatibility:
    - If using a newer motherboard with a z370 chipset and Realtek NIC, you may encounter issues at the boot logo.
    - Fix: Install NIC drivers from Realtek’s website rather than using the Microsoft-installed drivers.
  4. Smart Switch Issues:
    - Some smart switches have IP-MAC binding functions. Either cancel the IP-MAC binding or rebind all machine IPs and MAC addresses.
  5. Diskless Boot Errors Due to Installed Hard Disk:
    - If a diskless boot error occurs with a hard disk installed, remove the hard disk or disable it in the BIOS.
