How to create a WSIM Catalog file
I'm trying to deploy a Windows 8.1 image using an answer file.
I created an image by booting into Windows PE, and using Imagex. (Is it significant that my Windows PE is 32-bit, but I'm imaging a 64-bit machine?)
I installed WSIM (version 6.3)
I opened WSIM and tried to create a catalog file, as per:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-ca/library/cc748951(v=ws.10).aspx
It fails with the following message: Windows SIM was unable to generate a catalog. For troubleshooting assistance, see the topic: 'Windows System Image Manager Technical Reference' in the Windows ADK User's Guide". I've tried and failed to find the ADK User's Guide.
Thanks for any insights

Operating Systems
Operating systems perform basic tasks, such as recognizing input from the keyboard, sending output to the display screen, keeping track of files and directories on the disk, and controlling peripheral devices such as disk drives and printers. For large systems, the operating system makes sure that different programs and users running at the same time do not interfere with each other. The operating system is also responsible for security, ensuring that unauthorized users do not access the system. Operating systems provide a software platform on top of which other programs, called application programs, can run.

Then I was able to create a new image file, and create my catalog file from that image. Seems to be working.
Thanks
