38 Hi Roger,
39
40 The log you showed indicates that the PC is unable to reach the DHCP server.
41 As the issue occurs with both Operating Systems on the same machine makes me
42 think there is an issue with the network-connection.

44 Can you check the network cable and connections to ensure that is actually
45 correct?
