What to do?

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

The problem is a unsuccesful installation of driver in the driverstore, the first step would be to ensure that you are using the latest driver for the hardware and operating system or youre experiencing compatibility issues with a driver.

Then I suggest pressing shift+f10, and type diskpart then lisk disk, view whether all disks work fine.

Dear Yolanda, thank you for your reply. Latest drivers were deployed, HDD test shows that it is working in normal mode. Nevertheless, Window cannot be deployed via WDS. Could you please advise the reason of this issue? 

Thank you in advance.

Best Regards.
