Boot Image questions Driver/Resolution

Question

Hi guys..

Just got some lenovo X240, i7 with touch screen..
I got two issues when trying to enter Windows PE. (PE enviroment is 8.1)

1: First of all I don't get anything in the 'image selection: .. its blank..
The task sequence I use works perfectly on the X240, i5 machine, and most definetly have a capture image assigned.

I'm guessing its because the new i7 machine has SSD?, and not Harddisk. Thats at least the only major difference I can find.

but what confuses me is the fact
that I'm able to see the volume.. C:\Windows8_OS .. and I would think that would be the one missing if it was a driver issue?

 

I've not added any drivers for the model to the boot image, simply because so far from 6 different models, one of them being another x240, I've not had to do so..
when trying to deploy windows 8.1 in windows pe 8.1

how do I figure out if its a driver I need?

 

2: this is an absurd one

I only get to see half the Windows PE screen..
Yes the resolution on the WIndows PE menu is so low on this monitor, that I simply can't see more than half selections.
How on earth can I control the resolution of the boot image?

Shooting from the hip on question 2, but I think you should be able to use an unattend.xml file to define the resolution parameters. The format looks like this post: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/fbb5f946-1ab0-49a3-bafc-d19f5845b54d/optimal-screen-resolution-and-refresh-rate-during-unattended-install-of-windows-7-x64?forum=w7itproinstall
