On a fresh installation of Windows Server 2012 R2 (with windows updates done) and MDT 2013 Update 1 I am attempting to create a standard server task sequence. There is no antivirus installed on the machine. I was able to successfully import an operating
system already (server 2012 r2) although I had to copy it to the hard drive before importing it as it wouldn't import directly off the CD.
When attempting to create the task sequence, after the review screen at the step where it should be creating it this error message shows :
Performing the operation "import" on target "Task sequence".
Beginning task sequence import
Creating new item named SDF at DS001:\Task Sequences.

When I look in that directory the file ts.xml is there and it has only a single permission on it : read /read & execute for 'users'. If I delete the now created task the file disappears but when I create another task sequence I get the same error.
