I have upgraded my SCCM 2012 SP1 (CU2) to SCCM 2012 R2 and I am attempting to Build and Capture Windows 8.1 Enterprise. Everything is perfect except for the OS prompting for a network selection during the process, if I click "next" on that screen the Capture finishes without incident. The same is true of the Deploy as well...

Is this a bug from my up

I haven't observed that screen yet - are you able to supply a screen capture?

I had 6 photos to upload that told the story, but apprently two is a forum limit. So here is a screen shot of what happens after the "Deploy Image" Step and before the "Configuration Manger" step. After that everything else proceeds normally.

Hi,

Please check the log file smsts.log.

General location for all operating system deployment and task sequence log events.

Log file location:

If task sequence completes when running in the full operating system with an Configuration Manager client installed on the computer: <ConfigMgrInstallationPath>\logs

If task sequence completes when running in the full operating system with no Configuration Manager client installed on the computer: %temp%\SMSTSLOG

If task sequence completes when running in WindowsPE: <largest fixed partition>\SMST

Please check the log file smsts.log.

Just out of curiosity: what do you (Xin) expect to see there?

Adam: are you using a customized unattend xml somehow?

Hi Torsten,

Based on my understanding, smsts.log will records the task sequence activities.
If I have any problem, please feel free to point out.

Thank you.

Hi Adam,

This is a normal behavior unless you use an unattend.xml response file, since the 1st Windows 8 release.

You need to provide the response for the oobeSystem pass with the following parameters (for x64 version):

<settings pass="oobeSystem">
        <component name="Microsoft-Windows-Shell-Setup" processorArchitecture="amd64" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
            <OOBE>
                <HideEULAPage>true</HideEULAPage>
                <HideWirelessSetupInOOBE>true</HideWirelessSetupInOOBE>
                <NetworkLocation>Work</NetworkLocation>
                <HideOnlineAccountScreens>true</HideOnlineAccountScreens>
                <HideOEMRegistrationScreen>true</HideOEMRegistrationScreen>
                <HideLocalAccountScreen>true</HideLocalAccountScreen>
            </OOBE>
            <RegisteredOwner>Microsoft</RegisteredOwner>
        </component>
    </settings>

Thanks! I finally got some time to try this and it worked!This link helped too: http://scug.be/sccm/2010/02/02/sccm-windows-7-deployments-amp-unattended-xml/

Thanks,

Hi LillonelC

Can you point out how and where to do this?

When capturing with MDT 2013 on VMware I do not see this, naturaly, since the "machine" only has one network adapter.

But when deploying to a Laptop I get the wireless Setup screen...

On beforehand Thank You!
With kind regards

We aren't using MDT but what we did was create a package called Windows 8.1 - Compnents. In it  placed a file named "32Bit-Unattend.xml" and 1 named "64Bit-Unattend.xml". 

During the capture in the "Apply Operating System Image" I put a check in the box "Use an unattended or Sysprep answer file for a custom installation". The package was Windows 8.1 - Compnents the File name was "32Bit-Unattend.xml".

I did the same for 64-bit and used the 64-bit version.

Here is content of the 32-bit file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

</unattend>

Here is the content of the 64-bit file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

    <settings pass="oobeSystem">

</unattend>

If that doesn't help I can try to clarify it a bit further.

PS You won't need to do this for the deploy, only the ca
