      you mentioned UEFI, was that enabled in the bios when the system was working, before you pulled an image from it?

            Based on the pictures you provided your systems are not booting in Uefi mode because uefi enforces GPT partitions your partitions do not have any GPT set up

              Your issues appear to me to be more likely related to AVG or some form of antivirus has a driver installed that’s unsigned

                  Can you create a separate image but without the
                  [quote=“AlonsoP, post: 32599, member: 24925”]1.- upload the image right after installing, updating and installing drivers ( no sysprep, nothing )

                  [LIST=1]
                  []use Sysprep with the /generalize switch
                  [
                  ]manually delete the [FONT=monospace]??\volume{…}[/FONT] keys in the registry under “HKLM\SYSTEM\MountedDevices”
                  [*]run the following from an administrator’s console:
                  [/LIST]
                  [COLOR=#000000][FONT=monospace]bcdedit /set {bootmgr} device boot[/FONT][/COLOR]

                  [FONT=monospace]bcdedit /set {default} device boot[/FONT]
                  [FONT=monospace]bcdedit /set {default} osdevice boot[/FONT][/quote]

                  BCD commands or registry key edit? My suspicion is it can’t find the device because it’s been removed. Normally BCD will attempt to find it (when it’s generalized) but I’m starting to think the removal of the MountedDevices is part of the problem. it has no idea where to look for the drives. It knows the boot system exists, and probably even knows the location of the “data” partition, but because it doesn’t know about the mounted devices, it fails thinking the device doesn’t exist.

                    Also, before re pushing the image to a system.

                    Can you reboot, choose boot to disk, and IMMEDIATELY after selecting, keep pressing the f8 key until you see the Windows Multi menu?

                    Try “Last Known Good Configuration”?

                      Awesome Tom, i am actually building a complete new installation on a different PC same hardware GIGABYTE GA-H61M-S2PV

                      and do as you suggest. I’ll let you know my findings

                      Thanks a lot to both of you for taking time and help the community. Fog is an awesome product and like i mentioned before but i had not response. My IT manager is all for donating money to the project but i need to get it working like a charm as i did for XP. We have a massive upgrade to do and on a day to day basis support .

                            SUCCESS !!!
                            Well now i want to find out exactly what the problem is. I believe now i have different variables :

                            • I did disable UEFI and used Legacy Only.

                            • I installed Windows 7 64 b Only, No updates, No drivers. ( Tom mentioned something about unsigned drivers )

                            • I used “debug-upload” which alert me of :
                              Found valid MBR and GPT. Which do you want to use?
                              As Tom suggested i
                              (CTRL + C)
                              # fixparts /dev/sda
                              # y
                              # w
                              # y
                              # fog ( to start upload )

                            further testing !!!

                            • I am going to update windows plus drivers and try to upload. i have a feeling is going to work, just curious.
                            • Re install Windows 7 again with UEFI but in “debug-upload” mode to see if it complains about the partitions.

                            again guys very much appreciated. I will keep posting my findings hopefully it will save some time for someone !!!

                              Not to confuse anyone i will start a new thread as i go because they are different threads

                              please see [url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/uefi-vs-legacy-bios-gpt-vs-mbr-single-partition-resizable-vs-multiple-partition-notresizable.11124/[/url]

                              • Since FOG does not fully support UEFI i suggest just to disable this feature in the Bios before even installing the OS. If someone can * make it work with no issues with UEFI please share it so that i/we can understand it better.
