Stuck on "Unable to locate a Fixed Disk. You may need to add additional HDC Drivers to WinPE" #26

When I try to deploy OSDCloud using azure I get the error "Unable to locate a Fixed Disk. You may need to add additional HDC Drivers to WinPE". Does someone know what to do? I'm trying to use OSDCloudAzure on a dell Optiplex 3000. I installed the winPE image from the OSDCloud site and I am using a windows10.wim image for testing. I already tried to use an empty disk in the Optiplex to install it on, I tried to use the custom driverpack instead of the online one and I tried to disable the security options on the machine.. I also tried to use OSDCloudAzure on a hyper-v machine instead of the Optiplex and there it does work on.

If you got the ISO from my site, you probably skipped over the fact that there are no drivers in these Boot Images. They are clean. Your solution is to build your own WinPE with Drivers added OR mount the WIM from my ISO and add the Drivers you need for WinPE

Finally, as you said it works in Hyper-V (which doesn't need HDC Drivers), then that should confirm that you are missing Drivers for your PC
