I have create a windows PE boot cd which work as intended for ghosting pc. However when I add a 6 gig ghost file to the cd, the cd boots up in "Windows Boot Manager" mode. And complains that C:\windows\systems32\boot\winlooad.exe in missing or corrupt. please let me know if anyone has input.

I hope you are running this on a computer with more that 256MB RAM. Generally 256MB of RAM or less will spit out a variety of errors including the one you posted.

Yeap, the screenshopt is a Virtual PC Images, which give me the sames result as the Burned DVD on a dell 755 with 4 gig memory.

Are you adding the ghost image file to the WinPE WIM file or the DVD ISO file?

I had this problem today when trying to deploy a known-working Ghost image of Vista Home Premium. I chalked it up to being a hardware issue or incompatibility and just installed it from an unattended CD.

I have added the ghost file to the ISO directory not the WIM file. it is easier to maintain that way.

I don't think this is hardware compatibility like the problem Tripredacus was having. If a place a small ghost file, lets say 2 gigs, the problem is not experienced.

I will try movin the ghost images to the WIM file, to see if that resolves the problem, however, it may be something esle.

OSCDIMG may be currupting the image since you have to overide the -m parameter. but that is just a guess.
