SOLVED Configuration Manager OSD Task Sequence PXE to Windows PE Unknown Failure

[JasonMMoran]

Hello

I have started building a new OSD Task Sequence, and the progress was short lived. I have started by building a Task Sequence to image VMs in my ESXi Environment and I am noticing that the VM successfully gets an IP, Boots and starts WinPe and then quickly leaves me at a screen as shown in this image before a delay and then reboots.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

probably a driver issue but check errors on the smsts.log file.

Hello AhmedLS
Yes, as it turns out I needed to remember to use F8 and examine that file. Once I examined the file, it was indeed a Driver issue but after further troubleshooting after changing the VM's Boot Option Firmware to EFI the WinPE fully loaded and the Task Sequence has continued.

Now it is time to work through the steps of the task sequence to get it to work as required.

Thank you for your response.
