Hi, It is a bit of strange one but I have noticed the following link which may help to trouble shoot your problem. http://www.dell.com/support/article/uk/en/ukbsdt1/sln300689/requirements-to-install-windows-7-on-m2-drives-in-non-volatile-memory-express--nvme--storage-environments?lang=en

Hi there in my experience I had fun with Bitlocker but I have just discovered a blog that might be able to shed some light on your problem. https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/chuck_kiessling/2012/02/03/enabling-bitlocker-with-an-sccm-task-sequence/ Please let me know how you get on.

Hi, Just to clarify the laptop is able to pxe boot and pull down your boot image but fails before the task sequence starts?

Hi, Are you still having issues as your post has been outstanding for a while?

Hi, Not sure if you are aware but there is a newer version of MDT for Windows 10 1703 so it may best to upgrade to the latest version to see if that improves things.

Hello, In my experience I keep the base wim pretty much vanilla and then use the build task sequence to add agents, third-party apps etc. in case of Windows 7 I pretty much only included IE 9 slip streamed into the wim initially and with Windows 10 I just removed built in apps from the wim file. I guess it depends on your environment if a thin image or a fat image suites but using a thin images allows the update of third-party apps easier.

Hi, I had actually the same issue when deploying Windows 10 1703 into my environment. I have managed to rectify the situation which another blog refers to disabling the 'Consumer Experience' via GPO The “Consumer Experience” is the default mode Windows 10 (including Enterprise) is shipped with. This mode, upon initial login of a new user, commences the automatic download of a plethora of (unrequested) UWP apps, thus filling the start menu with games like Candy Crush. I deplore this feature beyond anything Microsoft has done in the past. It cheapens the Windows experience and frankly, I think they should be embarrassed that this is included in their flagship product. Fortunately, this feature can be disabled – but only on Enterprise edition. In my case this policy was not set and building the device into an OU in Active Directory where there were no GPO's proved successful but as this would not solve my issue I started to look at my build Task Sequence in SCCM. I finally discovered the issue was related to us requiring a private store and me setting a registry key and all I had to do was move this to last part of the build process.

Is it possible to Deploy Windows 7 through SCCM 2012 - Software Centre as an available Task Sequence? I already have task sequences that are deployed using PXE boot but would like to know if it is possible to deploy Windows 7 via an available task sequence through SCCM 2012 - software centre so that the end user is able to rebuild/refresh their own machine.
