from log1 that means it cannot communicate with the mp due to network issues (no ip, or dns problems), so you need to pause the task sequence mid action, and verify if it indeed is able to communicate with the dp/mp otherwise of course it will fail most likely cause, lack of network drivers in the boot image for the hardware involved cheers niall

what doesn't work exactly, can you attach your smsts.log file so i can take a look ?

you must always use the correct language pack cab file for the respective version of Windows, so Windows 10 1607 needs the 1607 cab files, and same for Windows 10 1511, it needs the 1511 language cab files and so on...

is sql running on a separate server ? what do the event viewer logs tell you ?

that's the way it works with Windows 10, see > http://rzander.azurewebsites.net/how-to-change-the-welcome-screen-language-in-win10/

are the client settings to enable SCEP management correctly deployed to the target collection ?

i'll happily help you with getting your frontend working, feel free to add me to skype or whatever

hi Art and welcome, glad you are here :-) cheers niall

can you attach your smsts.log please

hi and welcome take a look at these posts they should get you started, you'll need to incorporate web services to get that functionality it's all covered in the windows-noob OSD book in great details by the way https://www.windows-noob.com/forums/topic/1064-step-by-step-guides-system-center-configuration-manager-2007/#entry11753

can you attach your dmpdownloader.log and cmupdate.log please

have you tried restarting the SMS_Executive component ?

it will hide if you use the correct version (architecture) of windowhide.exe for those boot images.

are you sure it's using the specified customsettings.ini ?

what version of SCCM are you running exactly ?

a standard user is fine, the permissions are not for changing the time, but to contact Active Directory via Net Time .

have you seen this post from Paul ? it's for 1602 but it should be the same scenario

so to summarize, you have captured the Windows 7 wim using SCCM correct ? and when you deploy it using a task sequence Windows ends up on D: ? when using the osdpreservedriveletter=false, what drive letter does Windows end up on ? cheers niall

hi, look at your logs again, it's ok if you missed it, so did I Feature update to Windows 10 <SKU>, version 1607, <language> are the actual updates for Windows 10 1607, so it's working fine ! i.e. the Windows 10 upgrades are now known as Feature Updates... cheers niall

i havn't tried it yet but hope to do so this weekend, i'll ask Microsoft to comment in the meantime

is the computer in the collection that you've deployed the task sequence to ? did you update machine policy on that computer ?

interesting problem, are all other updates showing in Software Updates ?, have you selected Upgrades ?

hi it's seems it's failing directly after the reboot after installing windows updates Failed to set log directory. Some execution history may be lost. The system cannot find the file specified. (Error: 80070002; Source: Windows) due to this the task sequence cannot continue hence the presence of that folder, as a test, disable the install software updates sstep on your image that was captured on a vm (good practice indeed) and see does it complete as normal, if so, then you must focus on the Install Software Updates step and why it's causing you problems is this Windows 7 you are deploying ? if so have you tried using Offline Servicing to inject those updates into the captured wim file ?

I would like to know how if i can install a virtual server on my own PC. (For practice) if you are running windows 8, 8.1 or windows 10 then you can enable the HyperV feature and run virtual machines on your pc provided that it has enough ram (memory) and a virtual capable cpu (check the bios) as regards guides, there are many here build yourself a lab first and then start testing SCCM, if you need help just ask

ok great, did you notice any difference after re-deploying the task sequence (in execmgr.log on affected computers)
