[RESOLVED] WADS - Error during Windows 10 deployment

Good morning,

I'm getting this error when deploying Windows 10 on Dell Latitude 3520s:

It would appear that there is an error related to the disk.

I don't understand, given that I followed the WAPT documentation correctly.

Thanks in advance.

Eliott.

Hello,

it seems the disk driver wasn't found in the ISO: "There is no disk selected". What kind of SSD is it? Is it a fairly recent machine? Did it come with Windows 10 or Windows 11 by default? Basically, it's the same issue as with MDT. If the hardware includes a disk driver or a network driver that doesn't have a generic driver in the Windows ISO, you need to add it to the WIM file.

Is the disk's BIOS configuration perhaps in RAID or NVMe mode (see [1])?

Regards,

Denis

Good morning,

I found the solution last night, indeed for the DELL Latitude 3520 the BIOS setting for the drives has to be changed from RAID to AHCI / NVMe.

And I have another small problem: to automatically integrate the Win10 license key and the BIOS key, do I need to configure the XML in this way?

Code: Select all

<ProductKey>
			<!-- Do not uncomment the Key element if you are using trial ISOs -->
			<!-- You must uncomment the Key element (and optionally insert your own key) if you are using retail or volume license ISOs -->
			<Key>[KEY]</Key> (j'ai lu sur un forum qu'en remplaçant la clé par "[KEY]", cela permettais d'aller chercher la clé présente dans le BIOS).
			<WillShowUI>Never</WillShowUI>
</ProductKey>
 

Perhaps this line should also be set to false?

Code: Select all

<component name="Microsoft-Windows-Security-SPP-UX" processorArchitecture="{{architecture}}" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
			<SkipAutoActivation>false</SkipAutoActivation>
		</component>  

And, can I delete the ProductKey line there without causing problems? Because it included the key between the tags and caused an error.

Code: Select all

		<component name="Microsoft-Windows-Shell-Setup" processorArchitecture="{{architecture}}" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
			<ComputerName>{{hostname}}</ComputerName>
			<ProductKey>W269N-WFGWX-YVC9B-4J6C9-T83GX</ProductKey>
		</component

Thanks in advance,

Eliott.
