[error while installing image - "windows could not configure..."]

hello folks,

I just finished creating a bootable USB stick - with a original Win7Pro SP1 dvd. I applied all available updates to the original files and just tried to install them. Nearly everything works fine just at the end of the installation (when a reboot should be done) a window pops up and says:

"Windows could not configure one or more system components. To install Windows, restart the computer and then restart the installation."

Doesn't work though. I know this error message can mean everything but is there still maybe someone who can help me with that one?

Also I have another problem. I have an autoattended.xml - but still it asks me for the language settings, which version I would like to install and also which harddisks I would like to use.

Where can I change this to German windows settings, and to take the whole harddisc without asking for the right windows version?

Thanks in advance,

Bernhard

hi Legolash2o

thanks for this link - I already read through this. The thing I don't understand is when I made this USB stick bootable there are no files on it - is this ok? And then it says that I have to copy the windows installations files on the stick - where do I find them or how do I create these files at all? At this point the thing hangs in my brain :-(

May you please help me?

Thanks, Bernhard

hello people out there :-)

I really like the work with this WinToolkit. Unfortunately I am not able to build an image which is bootable over an usb stick.

After reading many things on the forum (tutorials etc) I still do not really understand how to create something which is bootable from a usb stick.

I have an original win7 x64 dvd plus office 2010 dvd available also I downloaded all updates but how can I just put all that stuff together to make a unattendable image?

Sorry for asking this - is there any explanation with pictures or so available (in German?)

THanks for helping, regards, Bernhard
