WinPE desktop is not launching and instead is returning a Windows Boot Manager failure message

Products

• Ghost Solution Suite

Issue/Introduction

When trying to image multiple PCs they load the boot.wim for WinPE then a Windows Boot Manager failure is observed:

Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause.
Status: 0xc000000d
Info: An unexpected error has occurred.

If only one or two machines are tried then WinPE works.  

If this is tried over and over (often 15 times or more per PC) WinPE will finally load and the imaging works fine.

Environment

GSS 3.3 RU11

Cause

An old ADK version was still in use. 

Resolution

Make sure the latest ADK version supported for the GSS version that you have installed is being used:
