Description
Any VM will fail to PXE boot if any of the Intel NICs is selected. PXE Boot only works if the AMD NIC is selected. All is good when running VirtualBox v3.x

Do you have the extension pack installed? Without the extension pack, the Intel adapters are not supported for PXE.

Is the extension pack a new feature in version 4? I'm not aware of any extension pack in previous versions.

Yes, the feature is new. See section 1.5 of the user manual.

Replying to clawes:
The Paravirtualized Network does not work either.
It appears that the system does not attempt to initiate a network boot when any of the affected NICs is selected. Instead it goes directly to the next device in the Boot Order.
