Peter33 Posted January 13, 2014 Report post Posted January 13, 2014 You can simply open a command prompt and type "version" to get the windows version. It should be 6.3.9600. You can also get the version from the boot image properties (images tab -> OS version). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
P3nnyw1se Posted January 13, 2014 Report post Posted January 13, 2014 I'm simply lostThe x240 simple won't get beyond 'Preparing Network Connections' I completely recreated the boot.vim .. readded drivers.. I tested (x86) boot image, with 32bit drivers.. for both win 7 and win 8 and win 8.1 did the exact same just with (x64) boot and 64 bit drivers. the exact same task sequence and boot.wim work without a flaw on all other type of machiens I got. including the close sibling Lenovo X230 I then manually installed a x240 with Windows 7 and installed the network driver, using the exact same files as I injected into the boot.. and those drivers install fine when I do it manually.In the SMSLOG it attempts to get some 'regKey' something and fails..,(I don't have the log with me at the point of writing) On the other machines the logs show the computers succesfully claim those regKeys, Googling the error people say its either DNS related or network.. and since this connects by IP to the DP and not DNS.. I can only assume.. its still a driver issue but I got no drivers left to try out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevlar01 Posted January 14, 2014 Report post Posted January 14, 2014 Is it possible to press F8 and run an ipconfig? Perhaps you can see if at least you have any network adapters... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
P3nnyw1se Posted January 16, 2014 Report post Posted January 16, 2014 I did this, I get no network adapters.. the driver is not installed But I tried injecting almost every single network driver for this type of machine windows 7 x64.. win 8 .. win 8.1 .. one at the time, and all together.. the Windows PE is 8.1 .. and others wrote and linked to the specific win 8.1 driver they used.. and it didn't work here Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pascal Posted August 27, 2015 Report post Posted August 27, 2015 Hello, I'm experiencing the same problem with X240 & X250. I have to deploy a W7 x64 based TS with SCCM 2012 SP1 & Boot Image 4.0 x64 / WinPE 6.2 For the X250, I use the Lenovo WinPE Driver Pack 5.0 x64 dedicated for the X250 & the Lenovo W7 x64 dedicaded for the X250, my network card is note recognized, I don't get a TCP IP configuration & WinPE 6.2 loops after have been dowloaded (cf https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/documents/ht074984) For the X240, Lenovo don't provides WinPE's Driver Pack but provides the Lenovo W7 x64 dedicaded for the X240. So, I don't know what WinPE's driver pack injecting in. It seems that the WinPE's drivers pack are differents than the OS's drivers pack... Do somebody knows how to select the right WinPE's driver pack ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbisset Posted August 31, 2015 Report post Posted August 31, 2015 For what it's worth we have heaps of x240's here and they seem to work fine. I didn't even inject any drivers in to the boot image. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
anyweb Posted August 31, 2015 Report post Posted August 31, 2015 this sounds like a very good reason to do this http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/topic/12277-updated-script-how-can-i-check-for-network-connectivity-storage-before-starting-a-task-sequence-in-system-center-2012-r2-configuration-manager/ secondly, we are deploying the lenovo x240 and x250 just fine with our winpe 5.1 images, Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

anyweb Posted August 31, 2015 Report post Posted August 31, 2015 to get updated boot wims either update to ADK 8.1 and use those boot images it provides, or consider upgrading to SP2 which will include WinPE 10 which is backwards compatible with Windows 7 deployments.

pascal Posted September 1, 2015 Report post Posted September 1, 2015 If I choose to update to ADK 8.1, will my Boot Image 5.1 be compatible with the previous SCCM Task Sequence that working with Boot Image 4.0 ? In witch way, is it possible to enable Testing Support with Boot Image 5.1 ? Best Regards Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
