EWF RAM Reg and BSOD 7B

I am attempting to build an XPE SP2 image on CF with EWF RAM Reg. CF is formatted FAT16.

The CF is two GB and has a single partition, using all but 10 meg (I had already tried EWF RAM mode but ran into problems: "Can't create EWF partition").

I started by following the procedure for configuring EWF RAM Reg mode, but did not set all the registry entries in the TD Configuration (I only set the first one - "Type" under ewf\Parameters\Protected\Volume0. I did not enter the ArcName [confused by directions] and did not find the {71A27CDD... class so did not proceed).

FBA went normally (although there was a BSOD on the first try; this did not repeat) and the OS seemed to operate fine (booted OK several times) UNTIL I made the remaing changes to the registry as specified by EWF RAM Reg and rebooted.

I then got a BSOD 0x0000007B.

Any ideas? This is my first XPE project.
