All that’s left to do is install Windows 10 on a client with a PXE-enabled network card. In this lab, I’m using a Hyper-V (gen 2) virtual machine to test this functionality. Let’s start by making sure that your device or VM is set to boot from the network card. The instructions below are for Hyper-V virtual machines. If you’re using another virtualization product or a physical device, refer to the provided instruction manual to modify the device’s BIOS/UEFI settings.
