Getting Recovery Recovery Screen when trying to PXE Boot into Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager (MECM)

Hello all! I am trying to PXE boot a device, virtual machine, etc. When I press F12 to boot, it is giving me a recovery screen, along with an error code. That will be listed on the bottom. But it is saying "The Windows Boot Configuration Data (BCD) file form the PXE server does not contain a valid operating system entry. Ensure that the server has boot images installed for this architecture.". But I also couldn't help notice that it was trying to use path "Boot\x64\wdsnbp.com" instead of "SMSBoot\x64\wdsnbp.com" and something online was saying that it was corrupted, and to reinstall WDS service on the server, doesn't work. I have tried many different things, I don't know what to do from here. If someone can help me, that would be great, please and thank you! Oh, and by the way, I am using DHCP Options, I know it is not recommended, nor supported, but I don't know how to PXE boot into a system without DHCP options, as I am very new to MECM, but I am still learning it though.

2022-01-16T04:17:47.457+00:00 Yes, if you have SCCM integration with MDT, the console should let you create boot media.
If one of your SCCM distribution point or mgmt point is configured as PXE enabled you should check SMSPXE.log to verify if the client’s even hitting it. -

2022-01-17T22:58:13.997+00:00 I tried that, it is not even picking up any kind of boot images, the 2 machines that I have tried booting with, they try to boot form "Boot\x64\wdsnbp.com" even know I set the DHCP Server to boot from "SMSBoot\x64\wdsnbp.com". I am not sure if I am doing anything wrong.

2022-02-01T00:07:50.483+00:00 When you say 'I tried that' I assume you created boot media and attempted to boot but couldn't?
This suggests that the boot image(s) is where the issue lies. Did you review smsts.LOG on the client?
The very reason I suggested creating boot media is to rule out WDS/PXE-enabled DP etc.
The entire boot logic is on the offline boot media(most likely a USB), you have to boot the client off it. -

2022-01-16T00:50:48.833+00:00 Yes, I have, I still get the same thing. And I don't know exactly how to setup IP Helpers for that sort of thing. Can you link me a article regarding that, please?
