@KnightRaven What if you uncomment the “dhcp-no-override” and restart?

@Tom-Elliott
OK.
Well, I think I figured it out. I may have missed updating the storage node info. The graphs/pie charts are back working now.

Setup capture and is working. Ugh. the one thing I didn’t double check after it all. Being that its the only storage node I didn’t think to check it again.

Thanks for all of y’alls time. sometimes it just needs more eyes and a better understanding of how this works. Y’all have a great day. I need a beverage.

thanks,
Jason

@Tom-Elliott
Yeah that makes since. I just rem there being an issue with the resizable option with ntfs at one time. And the fixed size worked better or was more stable. I don’t remember exactly and I’ve slept alot since then. Old habits I suppose.

Thanks.

I use that batch file to easily create WinPE media for different Windows versions. It does require the imaging tools of the Windows Kits though, but I’m guessing most people will have that installed already.

You can add and remove certain commands as needed of course, for eg adding drivers using dism and such.
