Windows Restarted Unexpectedly while applying systems settings after MDT 2012 deployment.

Question

Posted this in another forum, so I figured give this forum a try.
Hello,
I wonder if anyone can help or point me in the right direction.  I've created a couple of WIMs and deployed them out using MDT 2012 and WDS running on a Windows 2008R2 server.  The images are created and captured fine.  Sysprep runs with no issues
and I can deploy out the images to any PC/laptop I want.
The issue I'm running into is I can deploy out this image to 100 PC's without any issue.  Then all of a sudden, I'll get an error saying Windows restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected error and can not continue.  This will then happen
from now on with this particular image.  For instance I've imaged a particular Dell Optiplex 790 multiple times with no problem, then all of a sudden I get this error on this or any other PC i image.
If I create a new image, the pattern just keeps happening over and over again.  I know it's not an issue with the physical computers themselves and I can imagine something is corrupting every image I have over a certain amount of time, so I'm sort of at
a loss.  Driver issue perhaps?
Thanks,
Mike

I'm having what sounds like the same problem, which is why I posted it with this thread.  I have been using MDT 2013 on various computers without any issues and now I am receiving the
Windows restarted unexpectedly message after the image has been applied.  It will not get past the error.  We only recently began using MDT 2013 with windows 2012 R2, so I don't have much experience troubleshooting.  The only error I
found in the smsts.log is as follows:

I am deploying windows 8 (x64 &x86) custom wim images created using Hyper-v.  In my custom.ini file I use an IP address for my server and I join the computer to our domain.  
1) Could the IP address be causing the problem?  Should I use the full domain address for my server?
2) If the WIM file is locked somehow or unavailable, what services should I turn off on the server?
3) Any other suggestions?
I won't have access to the server for a couple of days and I wanted to get help before I start to make changes or create another image.  Thank you!
