Hi,

Check out Nialls great guides to get started, really helpful.http://windows-noob.blogspot.se/2013/01/sccm-2012-guides.html

Have you configured a Network access account? it sounds like that could be the issue if not, https://albertneef.wordpress.com/2013/03/01/change-network-access-account-in-sccm-2012/

Hello, I'm trying to deploy a Windows 7 task sequence to a VM.  After it downloads the files, it says "Windows is starting up..." and "Preparing network connections..." then hangs on a blank SCCM screen then reboots.  

I have tried adding the VM Network Drivers to the boot image but no avail.

Do i need to add Storage ? Also in TS i select my OS as 2:2 .

Found below in smsts.log

X:\sms\data\Winpe does not exist

X:\_smstswinpe\winpe does not exit

For OSD you need Network Drivers and HDD Controller Drivers in the Bootimage and later on a Driverpackage with Network and HDD Controller (+more) also if OS hasnt the Drivers included.

To Check LAN and HDD Access in the Bootimage:

Command Support in Bootimage --> F8 --> ipconfig --> IP?

and for Disk diskpart --> list disk

Drivers in the Bootimage must fit to the Bootimage.

e.g. Win PE 5.0 = Windows 8.1 Drivers and Windows PE 3.1 Windows 7 SP1

Regards

Most of the time when the computers reboots before selecting a TS is related to drivers. As other states, add your VM NIC drivers to the boot image and enable command prompt support in your boot image.

Press F8 and see if you have a valid IP address and try to ping your SCCM server.
