Windows 7 x64 capture fails

[mmarinb]

Hello:

I am trying to capture an installation of Windows 7 Professional x64. It was installed with only one big partition for both boot and OS.

I need to capture it and save it to a WIM file for OS deployment.

The process starts OK. It makes the sysprep and then restart. When restart is done, it starts the process scanning the volume, then start to capture and captures just a little more than 200 MB and then the machine restarts with no message.

 

Where can I find the log? It obvious that the capture fails, but I would like to know when and how fails.

 

I hope you can help me.

 

Thank you in advance.

how are you capturing the image exactly, using what method ?

 

if it's via Configuraiton Manager press f8 and capture the smsts.log file, attach the file here

Thank you anyweb for your reply.

 

I am using a capture media. First, I started the wizard from the desktop, then the machine restart and boot from media for capturing process.

I found a log:

I didn't found something related to errors. After the last line, the machine reboots.

 

Thank you in advance.
