Deploying OS on 13th generation of PowerEdge platforms using
WinPE 3.0
As the drivers for USB3.0 are not available in WinPE 3.0, the OS deployment may fail if the BIOS config settings for USB 3.0
Setting and Memory Mapped I/O above 4 GB are enabled.
Solution: To boot to winPE3.x (32–bit and 64–bit) in BIOS boot mode on 13th generation PowerEdge servers, disable USB 3.0
Setting and Memory Mapped I/O above 4 GB.
