If you are performing an offline media installation, then the MDT LiteTouch 
scripts will search for the offline media on the local computer. What is 
happening here is that the scripts can’t see the media folders on any of the 
drives.  I suspect that the root cause is that the hardware/drivers are not 
correctly identifying your USB media, so the drives never show up. 

 

When you see this message next time, verify the driver is working correctly by 
opening up the Device Manager.

Is the USB Flash Drive detected? Or does it have a Yellow <!> bang next to the 
device?

 

If the device is detected by the USB bus enumerator, yet the driver failed to 
install, Check the SetupAPI.*.log files for driver install errors.

Does a reboot solve the problem? Do you have the latest certified drivers for 
this USB Controller/System?

 

Unfortunately, there is not much you can do within MDT if the root cause of the 
problem is Hardware/Driver related.

Subject: [MDT-OSD] "Please reinsert the media (CD, DVD, or USB) needed to 
complete the deployment" message.

 



 

I’ve only ever seen this on Media based MDT(MDT 2013) deployments on a few 
pieces of hardware, but has anyone been able to properly resolve this popup ?

 

A technician will receive this message on the first boot into Windows 7, right 
after the deployment has left WinPE.

 

Clicking Ok causes the popup message to reappear.

 

The only way to resolve the issue is unplug and plug back in the USB(USB 3.0) 
thumb drive that contains the deployment point then clicking Ok.

 

Litetouch then fires off properly and the popup is never seen for the rest of 
the deployment. 

 

The deployment contains multiple reboots.
