 Okay, I rebuilt a second machine and started from scratch. SAME ISSUE!!

 Okay, tried the "Validate" option, and that seemed to make it work. It complained that DNS failed, but DNS did not fail, oddly. So looks like it might be working now.

 Appears to be working now. Why would it only work with the extra check box?

Was there some policy / GPP or script in place which overrides the NIC to use DHCP? That would explain the APIPA address. Just read your response and then realized I mispoke. My mind was thinking APIPA (but forgot the term) and was thinking Dhcp assignment failed and then the APIPA was assigned instead.
