I am attempting to deploy Windows 7 x64 Enterprise to a Hyper-V virtual machine using OSD/PXE. &nbsp;The deploy task sequence completes successfully, but when the deployed VM reboots, I get the following error:<br />
<br />
File: \WINDOWS\system32\DRIVERS\<wbr />storflt.sy<wbr />s<br />
Status: 0xc0000359<br />
Info: Windows failed to load because a critical system driver is missing, or corrupt.<br />
<br />
I have tried deploying the VM with both a OSD capture image and the install image. &nbsp;Both images generate this error. &nbsp;I have tried starting the deployed VM in safe mode and still get this error.<br />
<br />
I know from research that storflt.sys is a virtual storage filter driver for Windows Server 2008 used by Hyper-V guests. &nbsp;However, when I check the reference Windows 7 VM for the captured image, that driver is not present in C:\WINDOWS\system32\DRIVER<wbr />S.<br />
<br />
I am running ConfigMgr 2007 R2 on W2K8 R2. &nbsp;Hyper-V is fully patched RTM version.<br />
<br />
Anybody have any ideas on this error?

Microsoft Virtual Server was a virtualization solution that facilitated the creation of virtual machines on the Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows Server 2003 operating systems. Virtual machines are created and managed through a web-based interface that relies on Internet Information Services (IIS) or through a Windows client application tool called VMRCplus. Features included Linux guest operating system support, Virtual Disk Precompactor, symmetric multiprocessing (SMP), x64 host operating system support, the ability to mount virtual hard drives on the host machine and additional operating systems support, including Windows Vista, and a volume shadow copy writer.
