Windows 7 Client flooding network with DHCP requests. Not setting IP

I have a small network, with 15 workstations, SAMBA AD, and a bunch of Virtualized linux servers. All the workstations, and servers are on the same subnet.

All workstations are running Windows 7 Pro

Both my Samba 4 DC, and ISC-DHCP-SERVER are running on the same virtualized host.

Most, if not all workstations have DHCP reservations configured.

One of my workstations will not acquire a dhcp address. When I enable the adapter, my DHCP Server's syslog reports the following: ( I have tried removing the dydns scripts, and it did not make any difference, so please disregard those messages.)

I appear to be getting flooded with 10 requests per second for this workstation. Eventually Windows times out, and assigns itself a 169.x.x.x address, and quits.

Any insights/suggestions would be most welcome.

On the workstation I have tried: Updating drivers. Installing bare OS. Disabling wireless NIC. Applying a registry setting "DhcpConnEnableBcastFlagToggle to 1" in HKLM-System-Current Control Set-Services-TCPIP-Parameters-interfaces-GUID.

On the Server I have tried updating the DHCP server. I am now at 3.3-5ubuntu12.7
I have investigated different delay settings, but they do not seem to help.

dhcpd.conf below: (Other reservations removed)

default-lease-time 600;
max-lease-time 7200;

Update: Jan 7, 2018 12:40
I do not see anything the event logs on the client that looks relevant.
I have tried changing the reservation IP to 192.168.1.6 – The client still floods the dhcp server for about 30 seconds, but does eventually accept the IP. I am searching for a possible duplicate of 192.168.1.249 – but have not been able to find one as of yet. It's Sunday, and no-one else is in the office, so that might be part of the reason why.
I have also added the suggested registry key.

Update: Jan 7, 2018 12:40
I have celebrated too soon. I rebooted the client, and it is no longer accepting the IP

Update Jan 7, 2018 13:45
After 15 minutes of requesting an IP, the client eventually accepted the IP. Log captured below:

Update Jan 7, 2018 14:45

Changed NIC, Updated reservation with new NIC's MAC.
Same result.

Update Jan 8, 2018 9:45

Update Jan 9, 2018

I have acquired an outage window for Jan 13/14. No more updates until the 15'th

Update Jan 14, 2018
I tried rebooting the switch, and physical server. Still no change.
I then assigned the server it's own physical NIC / Switch port. Still no change.
I then reviewed the switch configuration, and re-applied the port settings to the port being used, and the flood seems to have stopped. I am not yet convinced, and will monitor for a couple of days.
