I noticed that the booting process cannot complete when Windows is installed on the eMMC of a CM4.
The boot seems to freeze once the UEFI configuration period is complete. I can modify settings in the UEFI without any problems, but I can't finish the boot after that. The screen stays stuck on the Raspberry Pi logo, and the Windows spinning dots never start.

I used a CM4 with a 16GB eMMC and 4GB of RAM.

I have the same experience with the UUGear RasPiKey. http://www.uugear.com/product/raspikey-plug-and-play-emmc-module-for-raspberry-pi/
32GB eMMC and 8GB of RAM.

same problem here. CM4 with 32 eMMC and 4GB ram. I tried the fix noted in the 1.23 release and I still have the same issue. I know the windows ISO im using works on a rpi4b. The chipset should be the same, so I don't know if this is a UEFI issue or a windows issue using the eMMC memory.|
system locks up before the windows dots go in the circle. I can see the dots on a normal rpi4b, nothing on the CM4.
found my eMMC model to be a Samsung KLMBG2JETD-B041

Part of the problem might be the firmware images provided here aren't really compatible with the cm4 without the PCIe/XHCI switch, which is hung up in various review processes. If someone wants to debug this a bit either remove the XHCI nodes from the acpi tables, or cherry pick the xhci/pci menu switch from one of my trees and see if that works.

I think this might be fixed in the .30 version now available here. (Thats assuming windows is trying to probe a XHCI adapter that only exists on the RPI4b and not the cm4).
Closing, reopen if the latest build is still failing.

Version 1.32 still not booting on NEC CM4 module. Please reopen.

I confirm. CM4, still stuck on UEFI screen. At this point USB stops working. No keyboard, no USB SSD, nothing works.

Also tried it on my CM4 8GB on microSD. Stuck on UEFI for a while, then starts booting and throws BSOD a few sec after and restarts. It's my uConsole with an external display (internal not showing anything).
