The system cannot find the file specified

Same issue as https://tagmerge.com/issue/jamesstringerparsec/Easy-GPU-PV/25 but restarting PowerShell didn't fix it.

Not sure if it's an issue with the autounattend file or if it's because I'm putting the VHD not on the C drive or what Here's the transcript that was generated

I recommend you do the setup with the VHD on the C drive, to at least see if it makes a difference (and say here if it does), before then moving it to where you intend to have it, and changing the VM's settings to match.

Hi, be sure to run the x64 version of Powershell ISE (not x86). If not, the script won't find "bcdboot.exe" or other executables.

I added a check for this for future users
