reagentc /info

The only problem with reviewing the information,
is I don't know what a good one looks like.

There should at least be a populated setosimage.

What is strange about this, is reagentc is brittle
and easily broken, yet there's no infrastructure for
maintaining it automatically (with enforced filenames
to ensure it works). WinRE.wim is an example of a fixed
filename, but the files used to restore C: go by a
variety of other names.

This isn't a cure, but it shows you how to do simple
stuff.

What I can't figure out at the moment, is how a black
screen is appropriate. The articles I can find, some
of the error situations result in a dialog with the
details. Giving the user a black screen isn't exactly
good feedback.
