vCenter / ESXI not booting WIM Images / WINPE

[neorad841]

for the past couple of weeks, I am unable to load any WIM Images from our PXE environment on vCenter, It fails continually, and I am at a loss as to why it isn't working. It will just launch it as expected, and then only show the Windows logo and hang it won't progress beyond there (see attached video) I am in despite need of help with this ! 

Here is what I have done so far: 

1. Recreated the media for both WinPE and the PXE environment

2. Tired Using an ISO of the image that is used for PXE

3. This even occurs when I am using a Windows ISO. 

4. This occurs when using a Linux ISO 

This is a brand new deployment of vCenter too (did it about 2 weeks ago because of an update issues that support attempted to assist me on but we decided it was best to just start new) 

I am at a total loss and hope the community can help me out before I reach out to support 

 

Thanks,

So I figured out after posting this, the VMware Version that I told the VM to be was to high once I changed that to 6.7 / 7.0 it works fine ! 

 

Thanks,
