Ignore the below...I hadn't seen the comments had already extended to 2 pages and people have already posted this. Hi All, A quick Update. Microsoft have release a hotfix for this now. See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2905002

After getting a call logged with Microsoft the resolution I was given (although still under investigation at MS) was to re-install wimgapi.msi from the WIM folder within the folder where config mgr was installed too. This has worked for me. This appears to be a problem that has previously happened in config mgr 2007, I found a TechNet article for it. I cannot paste anything into this topic for some reason, but search TechNet for BB932179, it describes re-installing wimgapi among other things.

Hi Tjindarr, I've not got any resolution yet. Also have a case logged, but waiting for updates. Thanks for the info re Microsoft having a lot of reported cases. Hopefully there will be a resolution soon.

Another user has also reported this issue and I too am having it. Search for "SCCM 2012 R2 upgrade broken WDS/PXE" on this forum. I'd paste a link but the paste command appears to be disabled in this topic.

I have exactly the same issue. This issue has something to do with the WINPE.WIM / BOOT.WIM files that are created from the ADK 8.1 images. Trying to manually create the boot.wim files by following the TechNet article "How to Customize Windows PE Boot Images to Use in Configuration Manager" http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn387582.aspx fails. The DISM command fails when adding any of the optional components required by Config Manager. Rocket Man, are your sites running on Server 2012?
