    I created a bootable USB of WindowsTechnicalPreview-x64-EN-GB.iso using Rufus

    After booting from USB, install fails with "critical system driver is missing" \windows\System32\drivers\elxstor.sys
    Error Code: 0xc0000098

    SHA-1 matches

    I'm running an N54L microserver.

    Thoughts? :)

    Yep, it was a media error. Using an 8gb stick instead of a 32gb one did the trick.
