Well this problem just happened. for some reason the wds will not start. i get a whole lot of errors...event 783 > 0xFFFFFB40 event 768 > 0xFFFFFB40event 261> ""265>""513>""257>""i have no idea what is going on. i tried uninstalling, renameing the directory and still get this.

never mind, i just had to compleatly creat a new folder and then move all my images back over

When you say that you created a "new folder" what folder did you recreate?

The folder he is referring to is the "RemoteInstall" folder for the boot/install images. I had this problem and, although this thread is old, it comes up high in searches The steps I took to resolve this issue: 1) Command Prompt > 'wdsutil /unitialize-server' 2) Server configuration panel for WDS > Configure Server 3) When prompted where to store the images, create a new folder, don't use an existing one Then just import or create new images and you'll be on your way!
