Issue/Introduction

While attempting to create an ISO image boot disk you receive the following error message:

"Could not mount WIM file."

Environment

GSS 3.3

Cause

This can be caused by a lack of disk space on the drive that housed the %temp% directory.  The boot disk creator will use %temp%\~bootwiz\<number>\ as a working directory when creating a boot disk image and there was not enough room to create the image. 

Resolution

Free up some disk space on the drive were temp is located or change the users %temp% directory to a drive that has enough disk space.
