Hi.

I'm having a problem with Windows 7 setup not booting properly.
I get the "Press any key to start from CD/USB..." (or however that notice is) and then is goes to start loading setup with the bar at the bottom.
It then quickly flashes the Windows logo and as it is about to start the actual setup the screen is just.. black.

From what I can tell it seems to be between the handover from boot.wim to install.wim which contains the actual installer.

Windows 10 and 8.1 images are fine, it's just 7 that is having this issue.

I have attached the session and log files.
For this run I've applied settings to the WinPE and Setup image as well which is not something I normallly do. Just to see if it made a difference, which it didn't.

Let me know if you need the actual iso to give it a go for yourself :)
 
Delete all contents in the Temp folder (logs and everything else).

Start over, delete your source, extract the iso to a writeable folder and integrate only the updates and create a new ISO, nothing else.

Test it in a virtual machine.

Don't add tasks to boot.wim (PE & Setup images).

If that works ok, make a backup of your new source.

Let us know how it goes.
 
I just did a quick one with the same settings (except not applied to boot.wim) and also the answer file is not placed in either boot image or the Panther directory.
Also it didn't feature any updates at all.

Still the same result; black screen after the initial loading screen.
 
I just did one with the same settings as before, except no changes to components, features and registry this time - same result :/
 
Get a clean source, there is an error with usb driver:
Service tsusbhub description extract error 2.
 
It didn't fix it.

I forgot to mention that it only happens when I attempt to boot in UEFI mode, but the image should be EFI compatible.
