      They are identical computers, set up exactly the same from top to bottom. I did notice that on the web management the bandwidth meter on the receiving end is really bouncing around from around 11 to 0 back to 11 back to 0 and I checked the eth0 drops and it is showing 45405, that seems extremely high, could that be causing the issue maybe a corrupted image?

        what OS is the computer you’re imaging?
        what is the exact BSOD error?

            does it boot if you tell it to start windows normally? and if it does not, what error does it give you?

              It just goes to the starting Windows screen for about 2 seconds and then restarts and brings me back to the same screen.

                  I was having the same problem. It would get to the starting windows screen where the logo flies in. Then it would suddenly crash and give me the same screen you are seeing.

                  I had to do a basic sysprep to get it to work. Mine were the same make and model but I was thinking there still might be slight hardware differences.

                    I got it resolved, not sure exactly what I let the startup repair run and resolved the issue, now it boots fine. Thanks for your help.

                    I have another quick question unrelated and I haven’t searched the forums for an answer but is there a tutorial or how to on compressing the image file size, I only allowed for 200GB and with 2 images I am at 54GB used…

                      That, by itself, is not a error. It just, usually, means the system was shutdown or had an issue, but normally just running normal will work perfectly fine.

                      If the image isn’t working because it says it’s different hardware, then my guess is there’s different hardware. You say the specs are the same, but the image is telling you different. Are you sysprepping the image? Or just trying to image from an MPS/MPA style image?

                      Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG! Get in contact with me (chat bubble in the top right corner) if you want to join in.

                      Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

                        the images are already compressed. how much data do you have on those images? a standard windows 7 image takes up about 11GB of space for me, with compression set to 6 (for speed reasons, default is 9)

                          Go to FOG Configuration > FOG Settings > FOG Boot Settings > Move the slider for FOG_PIGZ_COMP

                          The lower you move it the less compression. I would think you would want to set it to 9. This will effect your upload speed but as far as I understand download should remain the same.

                          FOG Version: FOG 1.2.0

                              Stolen from Tom’s post:

                              Yes, but not real easily.
                              The way to do it is described below: (root access on FOG Server, use terminal or console.)

                              [CODE]Code:
                              cd /tftpboot/fog/images
                              mkdir tmp
                              gunzip -d -c init.gz > init
                              mount -o loop init tmp
                              sed -i ‘s/PIGZ_COMP=“-3”;/PIGZ_COMP=“-0”;/’ tmp/bin/fog #THE -0 change to what you want. -0 is worst compression, -9 is best compression.
                              umount tmp
                              mv init.gz init.gz.orig
                              gzip -9 init
                              rm -rf tmp
                              [/CODE]
