Windows 10 Task Sequence Fails

[simps100]

Hi all

 

Am starting to test Windows 10 deployments in our enviroment and have ran into a few issues.

 

The task sequence is quite simple, we partition the disk and apply the OS, apply basic Windows settings (Username and time zone) and then move onto the Drivers we use a WMI Query to work out the model to apply the correct drivers, in this case am testing with a Dell E5440, i can tell this part is working as i can see the Task Sequence stars to download the correct driver pack, but when it attempts to install them i get the failure 0x80070032

 

We are running System Center 2012 R2 SP1, Site version is 5.00.8239.1000, our Win PE boot image version is 6.3.96.00.16384, have included the SMSTS log from the machine it fails on below.

 

Hope someone can help work out what im missing!

 

Thanks

Get the latest Windows 10 ADK and install it on your site server. Then create a new boot image for you task sequnce.

Should solve your problem.

Did that and I seem to get abit further!

 

So now I apply the OS and it works fine as it did before, it also *appears* to apply the device drivers and does not error as it did before with no issues.

 

The machine then reboots and gets stuck on "Getting Ready" for a good 20/25 minutes, it then reboots into PXE again to apply network settings and install some applications but this is where i seem to get issues. When I hit f8 and go into CMD I can see the machine no longer has an IP which i found abit strange in its self and runs very slowly, when it finally completes i get into Windows and none of the drivers have applied and none of the applications have installed.

 

 

Interestingly it works with no issues on Windows 7 deployment using the same Boot image.

 

Any suggestions appreciated!

Don't mean to state the obvious but it's failing because it doesn't have a NIC driver. Can you check that the step where drivers get installed is not disabled?

Yeah sorry that step is enabled again. Just so im understanding correctly the machine will use the PXE boot image driver whilst formatting / applying the OS / injecting the drivers - then when it reboots it will start to use the drivers installed by the task sequence?

 

Also is Applying a driver package in the same way as have done so for Windows 7 still the best way to do it in W10?

 

Cheers!

[simulacra75]

Yes, your thinking is correct. Windows PE will use whatever driver has been added (if any) up to the point where the OS gets installed and drivers get injected. After this point the NIC driver that's used is the Windows driver AFAIK.

 

You ask is there a better way to install drivers? On a personal level, i believe there is and it completely bypasses the Auto Apply Drivers section of the Task Sequence. Here's what you do;

 

1). Download all the drivers for a given model of computer and create a package in CM12 (Not a drivers package, just a regular package). Let's say it's called Dell Latitude 7275

 

2). In the Apply Driver Packages section of your Task Sequence create a "Set Task Sequence Variable"

- Name: Set %winrootdir% to C:\

- Task Sequence Variable: winrootdir

- Value: C:\

Set a condition on the above to only run if the Folder called "C:\windows" exists

 

3). Create a Run Command Line step called, Apply Dell Latitude 7275

- Command Line: dism.exe /Image:%winrootdir% /Add-Driver /Driver:.\ /Recurse /ForceUnsigned

 

- Tick the Package box and select the Package you created in step 1).

 

4). Put a condition to only run on Dell 7275 machines (WMI: select * from win32_computersystem where model like "Latitude 7275")

 

That's it.
