Task Seqence failed error 0x80070490
I am having some trouble deploying a image i got from a reference machine (Win7x64 sp1) The machine boots into WinPE but i get the message Task Sequence failed error 0x80070490 it formats volume c: then when copying the .wim file it produces the error. Has anyone come across this before? Which logs should i be looking at to troubleshoot this? background info on the setup SCCM 2007 R2 running on Win SVR 2008 R2 MDT2010 Update has been installed. many thanks in advance!!

smsts.log is always the log file to view for OSD issues: http://blogs.technet.com/b/inside_osd/archive/2007/12/13/troubleshooting-tips.aspx. Jason | http://myitforum.com/cs2/blogs/jsandys | Twitter @JasonSandys

to find out where the SMSTS.log file is and to understand how to enable F8 command prompt support in your boot images see the below guide:- Troubleshooting PXE and PE problems Troubleshooting with the help of SMSTS.LOG and F8 once done, post the failure message(s) from the smsts.log file here and we'll try and help you figure this out, could be network related or perhaps the WIM file itself has an issue ?

Hi, I managed to figure this out, i was deploying Win 7 and within the TS the image it was deploying was 1-1 which is the 100mb System reserved partition, which is why it was failing once i changed this to 2-2 the deployment was successful :-) I'm currently reading through this blog - http://blogs.technet.com/b/configurationmgr/archive/2010/04/12/how-to-set-up-a-task-sequence-to-deploy-windows-7-images-captured-via-an-sccm-2007-capture-cd.aspx I did notice though that the SMSTS.log in SMS_CCM had not been updated since April of this year! Which is strange..... thanks for posting your advice it's appreciated!! I do have another question but i'll create another post for it
