Hi Dave, which version of VC are you using and do you have any other VMware softare installed on the server like VCB? In same cases running a repair of the VC install or replacing the files mentioned in this thread can fix this - http://communities.vmware.com/message/454947

I got this error previously and it was related to sysprep not being in the correct folder on the VC.

I have seen this same error and it was related to VCB being installed on my VC Server. Currently they cannot reside on the same server or you lose your custimozation wizard.

Help me help you by scoring points.
