      Hi,

      I'm installing pfsense on Hyper-V for the first time. I have downloaded the ISO file; extracted it from the dz download using WinZip and connected it to the VM's DVD. However when I run the VM for the first time I get "PXE-18: Server response timeout.".

      Has anyone any idea where I go from here?

        Hi Everyone,
        I've fixed it myself. :-) I had to turn OFF "Enable Secure Boot" in VM's Security Settings. pfsense is now running.
