The Windows Deployment Services (WDS) Server service terminated with service-specific error 50 (0x32).

For the past couple of days I have been trying to get my sccm server working(this I'll explain in detail in a latter post(once finally got it all working ) ) but while trying to get the server working it started giving the the errors: 

Application:

Source:WDSServer

Category: WDSServer

Type: Error

Event ID:257

An error occurred while trying to start the Windows Deployment Services server.

Error Information: 0x32

System:

Source: Service Control Manager

Category: None

Type: Error

Event ID:7024

The Windows Deployment Services (WDS) Server service terminated with service-specific error 50 (0x32).

 

 

I scoured the web and couldn't find anything till I searched the error code 0x32 and found it was for insufficient rights.So I changed the WDS logon account to a domain admin's account and tried to run the wds service and it ran perfectly. I then changed it back to the normal system account and its all running perfectly again.

Hopefully this saves someone loads of time that I lost trying to fix a basic error
