    OSF crash with WinPE on launch with illegal instruction [Solved]

    In case someone else comes across the same problem.

    We saw a crash when launching OSForensics in WinPE V5. (The Windows pre-installation environment for Windows 8.1)

    The crash was a result of an illegal instruction (vmovsd) in the POW function. The bad code causing this crash was in the C Runtime (CRT) library, supplied by Microsoft.

    Further details of the problem can be found here,

    Using WinPE for Win10 solves the problem.

Working...
