Blue Screen Stop Error 0x0000007b

I have been trying for a few days now to create a bootable XPE image with no
luck. I have run the TAP.exe program with no errors, built the image without
any errors and copied it to a second hard drive for testing, but everytime, I
get the same stop error listed in the subject line.

I am trying to build an image for a Dell Optiplex 755 with a Intel Core 2
vPro. Can anyone help or offer suggestions?

Scott,

It usually means you are missing some driver files. I had to go through the
same problem. I am not sure if there is any tool you could use to find out if
you have all the necessary files.

Check out this page
http://www.seanliming.com/Docs/XPE Stop 0x0000007B Error V1.3.pdf

If the link doesn't work, google Stop error sean liming.

Make sure you have all the components listed on the document.

Another crude way to compare your XP Pro and XPE Windows directory. You can
do this by comparing the files in the Windows directory. I used a tool called
Beyond compare. You can find out how many files are missing. But I would
recommend going through the PDF first.

Another thought, do you have a template you could start with ?. Why do you
use TAP.EXE ?. I am working on a project where I got the XP Embedded solution
pack for that particular board, I started building on top of that.

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Scott,

you are missing the SATA RAID controller driver in your image.
Dell Optiplex 755 has an integrated RAID controller.
It shold be listed in the devices.pmq file, but you will get
a warning during import of the pmq file that this driver
for this componentn was not found.

Try to componentize this driver and includ it into the database
of your Target Designer.

Then reimport the pmq file and check the import log file.

Can you point me in the right direction? This is my first time trying to
build an image from scratch.

Scott,

When you run tap.exe on a XP Prof machine with all running drivers they all
will be logged in the device.pmq file.
When you import now this file into Target Designer it try to find all these
drivers in the Target Designer driver database (Repository).
btw, this is the same database as a normal Xp Professional SP2.

Of course a new Dell PC needs a lot more and newer drivers than in the
database available
(Chipset, RAID, gfx, Sound, network,.....)

You have to define a log-file for the import process of the pmq-file.
Per standard, there is no log file defined.

During the import process, you can see yellow signs with the drivers
not available.
Now you have to include this drivers into the Xp Embedded database.

Of course, there are some drivers already available on www.xpefiles.com
i.e. Chipset, GFX, and network. Maybee also the Raid driver.

If not, you have to componentize the official XP Prof driver
with Component Designer.
Easiest way is to import the .inf file to get a .sld component for
XP-Embedded.
You can import then this new generated driver with Component Database
Manager into your
repository (Database).

Hope this will help a little bit.
