Description

Hi all,

I’m having a weird issue when I sysprep a Windows 10 64-bit system - it seems to get stuck in a reboot loop. The Dell logo will appear, the white spinning circle will show for a few seconds, and then all will go black and the laptop I’m working on will reboot.
I suspect it could be my unattend.xml file and that there’s something wrong with it. 0_1486047107562_unattendTest.xml
You can see I’m trying to call SetupComplete.cmd (as I’m using an OEM version of Windows) in the FirstLogonCommands, but I don’t get as far as logging on so I don’t think it’s that.
Has anyone else experienced this issue or perhaps know what the cause could be?
The only way out of it is to re-image the system with the image taken before running sysprep.

It’s most likely something to do with the drivers (or antivirus) if it reboots at that point, imo.

@RobTitian16 why do you have: <Domain>.\</Domain> ? Also look at this thread: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/9394/trying-to-sysprep-windows-10-to-upload-to-fog-please-help . The user had a very similar issue (boot loop due to a bad unattend file), there’s several Windows 10 unattend files posted from various users in our forums.

@RobTitian16 I had this issue just the other day it is in the answer file somewhere but I couldn’t pin point it. I was given and answerfile to try from someone else on here and it worked I will share. It worked for me.
