      Hi again,

      I’ve followed the next steps and the PC works ok.

      [SIZE=4][B]Fix #1: Rebuild the BCD[/B][/SIZE]

      You can rebuild the BCD by following these steps to access the bootrec.exe tool:
      [LIST=1]
      []Insert your install disc
      [
      ]Click on [B]Repair your computer[/B] after you go through the language and time settings
      []Select your Windows installation drive, which is usually C:, and click [B]Next[/B]
      [
      ]Choose [B]Command Prompt[/B] when the [I]System Recovery Options[/I] box appears
      [*]Write the following command and press Enterafterwards:
      bootrec /rebuildbcd
      [/LIST]

      So, there are any solution to made a correct fog image, and upload it on a server?

        Reupload after your fix here should do it.

            Hi,
            I’ve reuploaded after fix, and when I dowload the image on the lapto I got the same error.I use next settings in order to create image on a fog server, so it’s correct?

                    Hi,

                    The picture is how I define the image in a fog server before upload from a laptop.
                    Are OK?

                      I’m trying to understand how your picture has any impact on what the system is doing.

                      My understanding from the error message you are getting is that the system is expecting Secure boot.

                      You’ve disabled secure boot and performed the image, but are you setting it back once the imaging is done.

                        Yes,

                        I’ve configured Legacy Boot and Secure Boot disabled.
                        With these configuration I’ve uploaded the image on the fog server.
                        After, with the same configuration I’ve downloaded the image on the laptop.
                        After first boot, I’ve activated secure boot to enable.
                        And when the system starts 0x0000225

                            That happened to me recently with a Lenovo Laptop. Other things have been happening at work, and [U]a lot[/U] of them. I haven’t re-investigated yet.

                              From what I can tell FOG had a bug a few revisions ago that caused issues with Windows 8.1+ imaging. Would mess up/not capture the EFI partition. But that should be resolved in the trunk now.

                                I am having this exact same issue. I can successfully pull the image from a Windows 8.1 laptop, but when I try to restore it I get a non-booting PC. PITA to have to go through the BCD repair every time. I have tried doing the BCD repair and then re-uploading the image. When it’s restored it still fails. SecureBoot and UEFI are both turned off.

                                  @jwalters this is svn or 1.2.0?

                                    @need2 Which update fixed that EFI partition backup issue ? I can’t find anything in the 1.3.X changelog.
                                    I have the exact same issue in 1.2.0 and it’s quite surprising that so few people talk about it.
                                    Windows 8/8.1 should have been the main real-world use of FOG for years now, right ?
                                    And new computers have shipped with UEFI enabled for years as well.
                                    So, no other choice than to use SVN builds ?

                                      @it_man The svn build is where you need to be if you want UEFI support. While uefi support was in 1.2.0 it worked marginally well (sporadic at best). There has been great efforts to get the uefi/gpt issues ironed out with the recent push of uefi only systems that just hit the market.

                                      If you can tolerate a little instability the trunk has many new features you could take advantage of. If you detect a bug in the trunk build it is usually fixed in 2 days or less.
