I am looking for a script which find the machine guid and search in Active directory whether it is exist or not
If exist provide me their "distinguish name"
I am looking for a powershell script but it is not recommended.
Note: I will be running this script in Window PE before joining the domain
Thanks in Advance

its nice to include examples you've tried but
Get-ADComputer -Identity (objectGUID)
this will put it into the pipeline as a Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.ADComputer type
What you do with it now is up to you. (pipe it to Get-member for options)
Using an example objectguid what you asked could be done like this
Get-ADComputer -Identity x00xx000-0000-000x-00xx-00000x00000x0 | select name
you'l get an error if it can't find the device.
Get-ADComputer : Cannot find an object with identity:
this could obviously be done a lot nicer but this is very basic and it should work.

1What do you mean it's not recommended? What's your script so far? For the search in the AD you'd just use
Get-ADComputerI guess. – Seth – 2016-11-17T09:07:06.8471
