Hello Murali,
As suggested by Ankit, Validate those things! Also try to validate the unattended file settings by opening through windows image system manager!

Generally this error message appears when the default setting of the unattended file was not compatible with the OS, you could also try to overwrote the XML file with the unattended file.
check the setupact.log and setuperr.log in the c:\windows\panther\unattendGC
Also check you task sequence steps and check steps after OS load to see if any step is disabled using unattend.xml file.
Hello All,
I have posted above error message and description of issue, could you help to resolve the issue.
Thanks,
