SCCM 2012 r2 with CU1 - XP Refresh

Question

Hi Everyone,
Hoping someone out there can assist with this. I am doing a refresh for XP to win7.  I have read
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/6e934990-999a-4367-860a-3ce4e5eda956/sccm-2012-r2-error-0x800700c1?forum=configmanagerosd
and
http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?/topic/9418-referesh-task-sequence-from-xp-fails-on-sccm-2012-r2/
none of these work.  I took a look at this and I was able to get pass the staging of the boot image
http://blogs.technet.com/b/brandonlinton/archive/2013/06/21/how-to-create-and-import-a-winpe-3-1-boot-image-for-use-in-configmgr-2012-sp1-cu2.aspx
however when the machine rebooted I received this.  I also inject the nic drivers using dism and still the same issue. Any idea of a fix or how to go about refresh for
XP using sccm 2012 r2?
thanks all!

Hi,
Also ran into this issue, you're encountering this error because some components are missing in your WinPE image.
Note that this refresh scenario is not supported, however you can get this  to work by manually customizing (especially importing WMI component) your WinPE image
before importing it ConfigMgr.
I made the script below, ran in on a base WinPE image from WADK for Windows 8 (a 6.2 version image so) to make it work (sorry for french comments Inside but I'm sure you'll get it :) ):
#Adapt these variables to you environment
$ADK = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.0\Assessment and Deployment Kit" #Chemin d'ADK
$DismArchitecture = "amd64" #archi a utiliser pour DISM

$Locale = "fr-FR" #param regionnaux a utiliser
$DismFolder = "$ADK\Deployment Tools\$DismArchitecture\DISM" #ne pas modifier
