Answer Summary:
You need to have a DHCP server with a TFTP pointer, and you need to make sure there are no firewall rules in place between the DHCP server, PXE server, and the client.

PXE requires DHCP; you must have a DHCP server with a TFTP pointer, and you need to make sure there are no firewalls or other obstructions in between the DHCP server, PXE server, and the client. The later OS configuration doesn't matter, but on preboot there has to be something to handle the network address.
You can use your own DHCP server, or the one built into the K2K.

Is the DHCP and TFTP configured on different servers? If yes, are you pointing the workstation to the TFTP through Option 066?
