The last day or so I have been trying to create a sysprep image of a windows 7 x86 and x64 machines and each time it fails at the prepare for image capture. I get the message that that system is going to restart and once it reboots I see the gray bar and text saying windows is loading files, then it just sits there for the next 90Minutes and the job fails. I thought first it was a that i didn't have the drives for the NIC cards in the driver manager but after some checking they are both loaded.
