Debugging :: Error 0xc0000001 Prevents Windows 8.1 From Booting At All

Dec 24, 2013

- Upgraded to Windows 8.1 preview from Windows 8, works fine for weeks.

- Randomly crashed one day. I believe it may have been waking from sleep mode when this happened. It cited:

"Recovery

Your PC needs to be repaired

The application or operating system couldn't be loaded because a required file is missing or contains errors.

File: c:system32winload.exe
Error code: 0xc0000001"

- I've tried many recovery paths. BCDedit, bcdboot, fixboot, Windows 8 & 8.1 recovery media. For all of these I think I am either doing them wrongly or I get an error message that says it can't access/edit the bit where Windows 8.1 preview is.

- On a different drive I have a copy of Windows 8 that I used to clone to the other harddrive (now containing crashed 8.1 preview) over a year ago. They are unrelated I believe.

- There's a suspicious lack of Windows related folders on the D: drive containing the crashed Windows 8.1. D:windows doesn't exist and D:WINDOWS only contains one folder: "logs". The other folders such as "program files" are all locked.

Debugging :: BSOD While Windows Is Loading - Error 0xc0000001

Apr 12, 2014

Randomly today my computer decided it did not want to boot. It originally had a different error code, but I found a tutorial on how to fix it, I followed the tutorial and my problem stayed the same but my error code changed. Basically something is wrong with my boot sector.

The initial code was 0xc0000225 and I used this tutorial to solve it: Solution to your PC needs to be repaired Error code: 0xc0000225

After that I got the new error: 0xc0000001. I have tried rebuilding the BCD, I have tried fixing the master boot record. I even started to go as far as to do a system "refresh" but windows told me that the HDD was locked and I have to unlock it to do a refresh, which Id much rather not do. When I tried to rebuild the BCD it detected my OS but when I told it to add it to the boot list it says "The requested system device cannot be found".

The weirdest thing is everywhere I look I am told to use the windows startup settings but they are totally missing from the menu. I booted to my bootable Windows 8 64 bit flash drive, selected repair my computer, then selected troubleshoot and advanced options and the only things that are available are system restore, system image recovery, automatic repair and command prompt. right under command prompt is where startup settings should be. I cant reformat because I have a lot of stuff that would take forever to get back like music etc.

Automatic repair didnt do anything. Safe mode does not boot either.

Laptop specs:
Asus VivoBook s500ca
Windows 8.1 Professional
8 gig of ram
intel i7 processor
HD 4000 graphics
500 gig HDD + 24 gig SSD (setup as cache)

Debugging :: HP Pavilion / Windows 8.1 BSOD Error 0xc0000001

Mar 29, 2014

So my computer (HP pavilion HPE) BSOD'ed for the first time yesterday afternoon (running Windows 8.1, upgraded via download from original Windows 7, so I don't have a recovery disc). Along with the error code, the BSOD says that File: WINDOWSsystem32winload.exe is missing or contains errors.

I have tried pressing F8, Shift+F8, and holding Shift on start up, and nothing works. I know I'm supposed to upload dump files with this post, but I can't/don't know how to get my computer to the point where I can access these files. I can access the HP Startup Menu by pressing Esc on start up, which has an option to display System Information (not sure if below info is useful or not...):

Windows 8.1 Keeps Crashing - Error 0xc0000001

Jul 1, 2014

My new build with windows 8.1 installs fine but keeps crashing not even long enough to create account.

The specs for my pc are:

AMD A8-6600k 3.90GHz
TeamGroup Vulcan ORANGE 8gb (2 x 4gb)
Gigabyte F2A88XM-HD3 AMD 88X
Kingston 120gb SSD
Superflower 300w Power Supply

When i first installed windows it worked for an hour or two then crashed, but now keeps crashing after minutes, and get the error code 0xc0000001 on startup.

Heres what i have tried so far:

Reinstalled windows 8.1 on same ssd and also tried it installed on a different HDD

Made sure cpu was correctly seated and checked everything is correctly connected.

Swapped RAM for another set which i know works from another computer

Flashed Bios to latest version

Run a cpu stress tests using UBCD which gave no errors

even tried installing windows 7 which still does the same

The pc never crashes in bios or when using UBCD.

Apr 15, 2013

So I recently got my brand new Alienware X51 with Win8 pre-installed. Everything went well and I have had no issues until our apartment got a black-out and my PC decided to die. When the power was back on, I tried turning it on, but instead got an error message. Here as follows:

The application or operating system couldn't be loaded because a requested file is missing or contains content errors.

Also I need to mention that I did NOT get any Recovery CD/DVD with the pc itself. What should I do??

Debugging :: Windows 8 - Random Variations Of BSOD While Booting

Aug 25, 2014

I've recently build my own computer with Windows 8, which turned out great at first. But after a day or two i've been experiencing seemingly random BSOD messages, and what triggers them. I've tried reinstalling Windows 8 and updating all drivers and installing all Windows updates, but after a short while the BSODs appear again.

I mainly get the BSOD when booting and they continue until i've tried a number of random troubleshooting options. Most of these options fail (including activating restore points) and the computer reboots with a new BSOD, and the next time into troubleshooting. The last couple of times it seems like Windows 8 will boot if i choose activate troubleshooting as a startup alternative.

At small periods of times i've also had troubles with computer going into a loop where it is turning on for a couple of seconds, then turning off, i did not get boot screen during this. I'm thinking this might be caused by some loose wiring which have been tightened, since i'm not having this trouble right now, but i thought i mention it anyway.

I've attached the BSOD data as instructed, with both tools. This includes only the files after my last install of Windows 8. My first install also experienced the 0x0000003b bug check code, but i don't have any more data than that.

Setup Installation :: Disk Read Error While Booting From USB Drive

May 23, 2014

I got an old computer, and my sister still is using it, it had XP but since support ended I decided to go for another system, unfortunetly there were no drivers for Vista and up, so I went for a USB boot - Linux Mint Maya 13 installation. The PC ended up being even slower and a friend just recently showed me how to install the drivers for Windows 8. I decided to go with a USB installation but when I restart and boot from the USB to install Windows 8 Pro, it says: Disk Read Error. I tested the USB on my new PC that I use and it did boot, but it won't boot from the old one.

Graphic Cards :: New GTX660 Ti GPU Prevents PC Waking From Sleep

Sep 7, 2013

I recently installed a new GTX660 Ti GPU, but I am now experiencing a major issue with the sleep function. Whilst I am able to sleep the PC, when I try to wake it, nothing really happens. I hear the "device disconnected" sound and then nothing for at least 2 minutes before it automatically restarts.

Once it eventually boots, a message appears saying "Windows experienced a problem and had to shut down" (owtte)

I have attached a screenshot from WhoCrashed.

I have obviously tried installing new drivers, resetting the GPU etc but to no avail.

Dell :: Recovery - Your PC Couldn't Start Properly (0xc0000001)

May 26, 2013

my Dell Vostro was working without any issues untill last night where I got following Error-Message while switching it on:

Your PC needs to be repaired

The operating system couldnt be loaded because the system registry file is missing or contains errors.

File: windowssystem32configsystem

Error Code: 0xc0000001

So I went to this forum and found a thread where someone had a similar problem: [URL] .....

I cant make it to the "advanced repair options".

"Shift" + "F8" after System logo also doesnt work for me, trying to crash my system didnt make any success either.

Afterwards I ran the Diagnostics, where I got the following Error-Message:

After awaiting at the login screen for a 3-4 hours (doing nothing), my PC suddenly restarted. I checked the event logger and saw a critical error 0x133. I'm attaching all information as described in the forum, in the attached zip file.

I would also like to add, that after running sfc /scannow, the system scan detected corrupt files but was unable to fix all of them (as it is saying). It also reports that details are included in C:WindowsLogsCBSCBS.log. Should I upload this file also ?

Debugging :: Windows 8.1 64bit DRIVER - Getting BSOD With Error?

Jul 21, 2014

Today I purchased a Dell Inspiron 3000 series laptop, running Windows 8.1 Update 1 64-bit. However, whenever I shut down or reboot, I get a BSOD with the error, DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE. Strangely, it only occurs when I am running on battery power, and after the up time of the machine is 7 minutes. If it's plugged into AC then I don't have any issues.

The minidump shows that the problem seems to be caused by NTOSKRNL.exe.

Debugging :: Windows 8 - Computer Wont Boot Up - Get The 3F0 Error?

Nov 29, 2013

Computer: HP Pavilion DM4 3070-se (Beats Edition)
OS: Windows 8

It would not boot up, and when I started it the BIOS showed a '3F0 hard drive not exist' error. I left it until this morning, and tried again. Everything booted up and it reached the Windows 8 login screen -- I have automatic login enabled, but the screen freezes (spinner indicator stops suddenly) and the screen goes black. It restarts again, and sometimes I get the Windows 8 repair screen, sometimes I get the 3F0 error again.

The inconsistency makes me think that something is screwed up hardware-wise, but I'm not totally sure. Apparently, from reading online, the problem could be the HDD (I don't think this is the case) or a poor cable connection (most likely), or a software problem.

Because I don't have recovery media for Windows 8 (I installed it on a USB drive I don't have with me) I can't try a system refresh or restore, but I'd rather avoid those if at all possible.

Do you all think that a good option might be to take it to a hardware repair place and have them check the cables for errors?
