Can not start windows deployment service

Question

Can not start windows deployment service

acenyc 81

I am asking for help getting the windows deployment service server to start. I have the Windows deployment services role installed on a member server on my test network. The server is running server 2016.The WDS server is connected to the domain and I can ping the domain controller. When I try to start the WDS service, it fails and I get an error message. The event viewer displays error 7024. I have researched this error, and tried many fixes, but none of the fixes have worked .

This is the xml output of the event 7024

This is a gdrive link to a detailed screen capture of this issue. You will have to increase the playback quality to 720. I only have a VGA card in the member server.
