I know, not exactly the right forum ;-) but there are some tech savvy people around here and, honestly, I have no, absolutely no clue what slipstreaming is or how the boot process works or what a BCD file is etc.
So I have this windows 7/Windows Server 2008 based bootable USB stick that runs a client recovery program for clients connected to my WHS2011 Server.
All is fine expect that W7/WS2008, by default, do not boot off of xHCI USB interfaces because they only have drivers (?) for EHCI interfaces.
I know some have been able to inject or slipstream xHCI drivers into W7 installation DVDs or USB sticks. I would like to do that with my USB-stick but where to start investigating what is actually needed?
To be sure, xHCI drivers are available. They just do not seem to load (early) enough at boot. It is actually weird, the BIOS does allow the USB to try to boot but then I get:
"Windows failed to start. A Hardware problem " bla bla bla
"File: \EFI\Microsoft\BCD
"Status: 0xc00000d
"Info: An error occurred while attemptin to read the boot configuration data."
Any ideas? If I can get this to work I ma sure I will become the hero of the orther seven WHS 2011 users out there!
