MDT not booting to x86 Lite Touch

[nm_media]

Hi, I have MDT 2010 installed on a server 2008 alongside WDS. I used to be able to boot to x86 Lite Touch on a client and then select the Install OS task sequence. However now when I boot into the x86 Lite Touch image all I get is the 'Vista like' progress bar on a black screen and does not boot into the logon screen, etc. I can boot into the x64 Lite Touch image but there are no task sequences set up x64 OS's.

 

I am using a client which I have been able to deploy XP and 7 Pro x86 to before using MDT on the same server. But now all of a sudden it won't? When I boot into x86 it just hangs at the 'Vista' progress bar. I have checked that the DeploymentShare$ folder has the appropriate permissions and even deleted it and created a new one from scratch in MDT workbench.

 

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks!!!

Have you added any new drivers lately?

I have updated the Out-Of-Box drivers in MDT yes. Then refreshed the boot images to import into WDS.

OK, in your boot images driver selection only tick network drivers and regenerate.

I'm pretty sure I checked that yesterday but will try again next time in the school. Thanks for the reply!

I have all network and all mass storage enabled for my boot images.

 

I once found with my x64 image that after I had added a load of additional drivers and reenerated the images it didn't boot.

How do you just specify certain types of driver files?

Right click on the deployment share, properties, windows pe x86 components.
