Dell Vostro 1400 laptop will not boot Zen imaging

Got a new Dell Vostro 1400 laptop today to find it has problems with
ZENworks imaging.

I can pxe boot the laptop and it will attempt to install the imaging
software from
the server but fail and present me with the Linuxrc screen.

Navigating through the options results in a DHCP configuration failed
error.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Is there a hotfix available?

thanks.
