MDT Toolkit files fail to download - could not resolve source

IMG_6554

If this happens during OSD, it is likely due to 2 settings in the BIOS.

 

I recommend

WIN7 -

Boot mode: Legacy
Sata mode: AHCI

Win10-

Boot mode: UEFI
Sata mode: AHCI

  1. I am getting this error and my machine is set to Legacy + AHCI mode. Was this the only fix you found?

      It's related to Sata so you may be missing a driver in the winpe wim.
