MDT TS stuck at processing rules

[pbalderos]

As recommended by a lot of SCCM experts I am creating a Win 8.1 reference image using MDT 2013. When I boot my reference VM using the MDT Build Lab x64.iso it gets stuck at "Processing Rules" as pictured below:

 

This is what my Rules look like:

[settings]
Priority=Default

[Default]
_SMSTSORGNAME=Death Star Enterprises
UserDataLocation=NONE
DoCapture=YES
OSInstall=Y
AdminPassword=P@ssw0rd
TimeZoneName=Central Standard Time
JoinWorkgroup=WORKGROUP
HideShell=YES
FinishAction=SHUTDOWN
DoNotCreateExtraPartition=YES
WSUSServer=http://hv-host2.wolf.local:8530
ApplyGPOPack=NO
SLSHARE=\\HV-Host2\Logs$

SkipAdminPassword=YES
SkipProductKey=YES
SkipComputerName=YES
SkipDomainMembership=YES
SkipUserData=YES
SkipLocaleSelection=YES
SkipTaskSequence=NO
SkipTimeZone=YES
SkipApplications=YES
SkipBitLocker=YES
SkipSummary=YES
SkipRoles=YES
SkipCapture=NO
SkipFinalSummary=YES

 

And in the Bootstrap.ini file this is how I have it configured

[settings]
Priority=Default

[Default]
DeployRoot=\\HV-Host\MDTBuildLab$
UserDomain=Wolf
UserID=MDT_BA
UserPassword=P@ssw0rd

SkipBDDWelcome=YES

Hello, I am having the same stopping point as you have in the post. I noticed no one responded to you. I wanted to find out if you found a fix for this yet? I sure could use the help. I am using MDT and Hyper V but I am pretty sure the fix is the same. I am thinking it may have something to do with the account (MDT) or local admin account one used in the Rules section and Boot.ini settings but so far I have not had any luck.
