When i try to deploy a custom Windows 8.1 Pro Image Via WDS I get the above error. I have enabled Client side logging and checked WDS logs and install logs on the failed installation (Shift+F10). I don't think the issue is a matter of the drivers that are included in the boot image. If it were a network card issue i would not be able to get the WINPE on the network and start the install. Second i don't think its a storage driver issue, WINPE has formatted the Drive as one may see in  (Shift F10) DISKPART. If it were a storage driver, it would not see the drive and would not format. I am starting to thing that this may be a Windows 8/8.1 Kernel issue that i have found referenced in other forums.

That Said, I still injected my drivers into WDS then into my boot image, i was unable to do some drivers that were unsigned in WDS so i added them in DISM directly to the images. I forced the unsigned drivers so they could be added. I injected the drivers into my install and boot image. and still nothing. I then went back and removed, via DISM, all third party drivers from my boot and install image and it's still giving me the error. Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can upload logs if needed.
