7B stop error with BSOD in Xpe

[Guest]

I’m a newbie to embedded XP and evaluating XPe for possible use in a future
product. I’m stuck on the dreaded 7B stop error (along with the BSOD) during
the boot process. I used tap.exe (not ta.exe) to determine my underlying
hardware and successfully built an XPe image. I copied this image to a new
disk drive and tried (unsuccessfully) to boot from this image. I’m using an
HP xw4300 workstation (Intel P4 CPU with a 955X Express chipset) for my
development. I've added a second (new) SATA drive for my XPe image.

As a test, I built an image using only the WinLogon Sample Macro, which I
read should have the basic components to run on any system. No luck there
either. Any suggestions on how to get past this frustrating error condition
would be much appreciated. I posted this same question a while back, but had
to temporarily shelf debugging this problem, shortly thereafter.

Hi David,

I believe I had a similar error when botting from SATA. I apologize, but I
forget which component I added which fixed the problem. Perhaps you need
the SATA driver from the SATA controller manufacturer?

Thanks John. I thought running tap.exe would have determined the underlying
hardware and copied the necessary driver information for the system to the
..pmq file. Evidently not. I'll check out the SATA driver in my system and if
necessary, update the driver in my XPe image.

Thanks.

During debug of the BSOD error, the TD build image process is reporting
numerous errors where it can’t find .dll, .sys, .exe files (error code 1005),
even when building a image based on the WinLogon component. I’ve got the
build set to a release. TD reports an error code 0x800a004c (The index
specified does not reference an existing item in the collection). No errors
are reported on a dependency check. Was wondering if anyone's has seen this
error before; possibly a config issue or perhaps some files have been
inadvertantly moved or deleted.
