This error started yesterday afternoon and I have been troubleshooting since. I can try to deploy either win 7 or win xp with the same results. The task sequence kicks off, reboots into WinPE. The hard link data capture starts, succeeds and it starts to apply the operating system. Here's my problem, it isn't finding the operating system .wim on the osd share even tho the console shows very clearly it is there, updated on the DP's and specified in the task sequence! I have checked that the data path is correct and all of the other packages for the task sequence are present and updated. I have atached the logfile, any help would be greatly appreciated! We are running R3 on 2008 r2 with the advanced client.

Check your network driver first, make sure you can get an ip address during the deploy time.
