Ever since I downloaded and installed the 9/4/2008 release dated MDT 2008, my XP installs get the infamous BSOD 00000007B after TextMode setup portion is done.

I'm running VMWare Workstation 6.0.5.  I've been running the same lab setup since the early days of BDD 2007.  Never before have I had this issue.  I removed the 9/4/08 MDT and put back on my March 08 MDT download and XP doesn't get the BSOD.  So something changed.

Anyone else having this issue?  I'm thinking it has to do with SCSI driver injection, but I'm still investigating....

thanks,

I found out the issue.  It relates to the injection of the VMWare SCSI driver.  What bothers me is that my XP VMWare OS is running an IDE, not SCSI.  When I disable the VMWare SCSI from the out of box drivers in the MDT, XP deploys fine.

If I change the VM XP harddrive from IDE to SCSI, XP deploys fine.  So I'm still not entirely sure why the newest release of MDT is balking at IDE, but at least I have two workarounds so I can continue to develop my lab.
