Dell Latitude 7450 - UEFI boot question

I need a solution

I got in a new Latitude 7450 for testing.

I was trying to get it work with UEFI.  I was able to get it to PXE boot by turning on "enable UEFI network stack" but in PXE the C/D drives etc weren't available and Ghost failed out.

I went back into BIOS and into SATA operation and switched it from RAID to AHCI.  Now in PXE the machine sees the C/D drive and my win7 image copies down.

Great.  But not really.  Now the machine won't boot.  I get the dell black splash screen.  If I hit F2 to go into BIOS, I get Preparing to Enter Setup forever.  F12 doesn't do anything either.  It just sits there.

I tried taking out CMOS battery and RAM but still seems hosed.

I found this somewhat similar thread over at Dell.  I removed the hard drive but still can't get into BIOS.  

Secure boot was on in the BIOS if that matters and reading this other Dell article says UEFI/Secure boot should all be off for win7 - but I never saw a machine I couldn't get back into BIOS to make necessary changes.

Anyone have any ideas?
