SCCM2012 R2 – Failed to boot PXE mode (NBP File)

This week, I was trying to install Windows 8.1 with SCCM2012 R2 over the network. But after enabling PXE on the laptop, I came across this message : Succeed to download NBP file but the boot process continue over the Hard Disk Drive instead of PXE.

To solve this, I enabled Legacy mode in the Bios instead of UEFI mode.

After that, it worked !
