    Automated Install Disk Configuration


    Hello,


    I've been banging my head against the wall for a couple days and hoping for a little help. I'm trying to build a Windows 10 Pro Image. I've built a USB key with 2 partitions, 1 for booting and one for the images. The image is on the second partition that I'd like to assign letter u to and I'd like the boot partition to have letter t assigned. For some reason though I always get an error, Windows could not collect information for [OSImage] since the speified image file ... does not exist and when I hit Shift-F10 I see that the disk configuration was not done and that's why it can't find my file. Below is my disk configuration that was built with Windows System Image Manager. Does anyone see why it's not working?

    Create media for automated unattended install of Windows 10  


    Yes, skip Step Three entirely and you have normal option to partition disks and select on which disk Windows will be installed. Do Step Four, though, to automate OOBE.

    Automated Install Disk Configuration

    Steam does not install from disk?!?!

    no you're doing steps 1 and 2 wrong. steam creates the directory, you stop steam and then you install the game from the disk to that directory.

    also steam must be off, not in offline mode but off, aka no steam services in the task manager when you install the game.
