I was working on a MDT 2013 Deployment and I was deploying a reference Image to test the MDT System. I got the below error message on the screen.
“Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To fix the problem:
- Insert your windows installation disc and restart your computer.
- Choose your language settings, and then click “Next.”
- Click “Repair your computer.”
If you do not have this disc, contact your system administrator or computer manufacturer for assistance.
File: WindowsSystem32bootwinload.exe
Status: 0xc000000f
Info: The application or operating system couldn’t be loaded because a required file is missing or contains errors. “
I have mounted the captured image using DISM command
- dism /mount-wim /wimfile:”E:ISOImagesCapture Image1CapIMG.wim” /index:1 /mountdir:”C:CapIMGMount”
Tried to unmount the image
- dism /unmount-wim /mountdir:”C:CapIMGMount” /commit
Unmount was not successful and I have discarded the Mount point
- dism /unmount-wim /mountdir:”C:CapIMGMount” /discard
This time successfully unmounted the disk and tried again.
It was working fine with MDT.
