SCCM x86 Boot Wim Broken - Can't figure what's wrong.

My x86 boot wim is broken.  The x64 works fine.  I've tried to re-create it a couple of times.  I'm having a brain-f*rt here somewhere.

Re-downloaded the ADK, tried combinations of drivers, etc.  Can't push 32 bit images.

Even creating a bootable USB task sequence media, the x86 shows no OS.  Again, the new x64 works fine.

This started recently, when all imaging was broken.  In trying to fix, I re-created both the x64 and x86 boot.wims.  (That problem turned out to be an 'orphaned?' machine in the database.  All 'unknown' computers were being seen as that machine- but I digress)

We have a number of 32 bit machines in one of our departments that are going to Win 10.  I can do the upgrade but can't push an image a bare metal x86 machine.  

Help!
Thanks in advance.

Hi,

We need a bit more info than "it's broken". Please detail the steps you took create a new boot WIM and then what happens exactly when you try and boot from it.

I haven't been back to this in a while because of being buried and not needing the 32bit.
I titled this thing horribly and got too verbose.

Here's the issue - I  create bootable task sequence media from the task sequence node.
I get an 'operating system not found' only using the x386 boot.wim.  The x64 works fine.  I can't deploy an x386 image using the x64 media.
