Windows AIK cant generate catalog file

I created an Windows 7 x64 image for our company.I uploaded it to our WDS server and then realised that i hadnt created an unnatend file. ( To create the image i installed Win 7,configured it how i wanted, syspreped it  and captured it with a WDS capture image ) . I have exported the image from the WDS server and copied it locally. When i run System Image Manager and i open the image its says that it has to generate a catalog file and when it tries after around 1 minute if throws an error. The error is below :
15:07 : Windows SIM was unable to generate a catalog. For troubleshooting assistance, see the topic: 'Windows System Image Manager Technical Reference' in the Windows OPK or Windows AIK User's Guide.
15:07 :
15:07 : System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: Unknown error (0xc1420127)

I am running AIK on a Windows Enterprise  32 bit edition.
Any ideas on how to resolve the issue?
