  • 1.  Win7 UEFI/GPT Imaging

    Posted Jun 12, 2017 04:07 PM

    Hello all,

    I am having issues getting a scripted OS install for Win7/GPT/UEFI configured and working correctly.

    BIOS Settings

    • Drive = AHCI
    • SecureBoot=Disabled
    • UEFI Network Stack = Enabled
    • Legacy = disabled

    Device = Dell Latitude E7280 with Intel 6th Gen processor.

    Image Settings

    • Win7 x64 SP1 Enterprise
    • Wipe Disk
    • Convert to GPT
    • Partition with an EFI partition and NTFS primary partition

    Issues

    • I can get the image to fully install and load but when Win7 is initially booting up it freezes on the "setup is updating registry settings" screen and if I turn it off/on again it will freeze on the "starting windows" screen.
    • Other settings I have tried come up with an error 0xc000000d with a failure to find the bootrec file.

     

    Any help? Tips?

    I have a job in WinPE that copies the C:\windows\Panther, C:\windows\system32\sysprep and c:\windows\*.log including all subfolders to a network share so i can see what's failing in the logs.

    This is my job I run to install Win7.

    Everything says successful but on the actual machine it says "No bootable devices found"

    The logs didn't say much either.

    You need to copy the logs after it's run through "setup is updating registry settings" screen and the "starting windows" screen. If it's failig there's be a error message somewhere in the logs.
