Vista Image says 0xc000000e \windows\system32\winload.exe cannot be loaded

To resolve the problem, these three commands are run from PE:

c:\windows\system32\bcdedit /set {default} device partition=c:
c:\windows\system32\bcdedit /set {default} osdevice partition=c:
c:\windows\system32\bcdedit /set {bootmgr} device partition=c:

where c: is the installation drive for Vista
