win7 deployment - stuck after loading wim files (w8 boot screen??)

hi
I just updated to 2012.
I added Windows 8 to my deployment shares (seperate folder)
All was well until I decided to do a new capture of Windows 7 to get all updates etc. included into the .Wim file.
Now... after changing my standard TS, step: install operating system to the new .Wim there seems to have happened something..
After doing a complete rebuild of the deployment share, adding the new file to wds, and starting up a test VM, the VM "stops" after loading files... it displays the Windows 8 logo (just the slightly skew 4 Square Windows logo in a light blue color)... and that's it.. it just does that.. nothing else...
There is no log started since I haven't selected a TS and mdt hasn't started the customsettings check yet..
it just sits there... :-|
I can't even do a F8 to get a cmd so I at least can check stuff.. .but what can I do to error-check this?
Kindest regards, Martin

ok.. It's something in the bootfile
I created a generic Wim file and an iso file.. and all are showing the same problem...
I tried mounting the .Wim file to check if I could find something.. but so far I can't see anything out of the ordinary...
what can I check?
Kindest regards, Martin

what drivers could be implicated here?

we have had the same problem with one specific system i forgot the hardware specs.
we didn't find a solution other then doing a manual install or using winpe 3 instead of 4
