    did you disk part the new drive yet and assign the letter c? But also if you did diskpart and set partitions, it might have made the d: drive the "windows" drive

    also is the drive it cant find the f drive? You may need to setup the net use on to f:

    Yeah I did the diskpart and when I try to assign letter d, then i got msg that use other letter is already been used so that's why i give the letter f to second partition and letter c to first partition. For study sources I am using Microsoft training not so I am following that book. And I think the drive e, which has the win PE disk is inaccessible.


    I use the net use command on drive f and copy the captured wimfile to drive f for deployment via shared folder.
    Thanks for ur replies.

    morning to all
    somehow i manage to solve the problem that i stated earlier
    the solution is that the destination computer assign drive letter d to cd/dvd drive

    so i use the command as following
    x:\d:\imagex.exe /apply f:\capturedimage.wim 1 c:

    it applied that image

    and when i try to copy the boot file using command
    x:\c:\windows\system32\bcdboot c:\windows

    i got msg that
    Failure when attempting to copy boot files

    can any body pls help on this.
    thanks in advance
