Using a MDT Task Sequence to capture an image from a virtual machine to a wim file

Hello:
I have built an image hyper-v. I have sys prepped the machine and shut it down. I then mount my lite touch iso file to the virtual cd drive and boot. MDT comes up and I select the task sequence for sysprep and capture I have created (with sysprep disabled). I select capture an image and point to the captures folder of my deployment share. It runs a couple steps and then I get the pink screen of death.
Operating system deployment did not complate succesfully
Details:
The logical drive could not be determined from the disk and partition failture (7713) 1: could not determine partition to deploy to lite touch deploymetn failed, return code 214767259
I have done this before using the same steps. Freak occurence or am I missing something?
Any help would be appreciated. I have run it several times and its not working.

Is there a reason you are not running the Sysprep and Capture TS - with sysprep enabled - from the running OS?

I ran it manually because i'm more familiar with running sysprep with minisetup, reseal and shutdown from sysprep.exe than I am from MDT TS. I dont' see how it would matter, but i would be open to having MDT do it for me via a TS.

I suggest you create a new task sequence that will deploy the image,patch it and then sysprep and capture it to a wim file for you.

when you run a sysprep and capture task sequence, it does just that, sysprep and then capture. since you have already run sysprep and are not booted to WinPE, the sysprep part of the task sequence fails.
