Windows 10 0xc000000e Bootup error

I can see you are very good with executing commands that was fast thank you.

We have to deal with system partition not having assigned any partition letter then rebuild BCD store.

Please give me few minutes for me to write you a guide on how to do that.

okay ill have to do this tomorrow now, given the time, thank you for your help so far.

You are very welcome, i have different way of repairing system boot files stored at system partition .

You will have to use Diskpart command to find out the System Reserved partition assigned number.
The output of the below commands may display the name of the System Reserved partition as only System or ESP.

   Type diskpart and press Enter.
   Type list volume and press Enter.
   Under the label row, find the label System Reserved and note its corresponding Volume number.
   Now type select Volume=N and press Enter, where N is the Volume number you noted earlier.
   Now type assign letter=w and press Enter.
   Type exit and press Enter.
   Type bcdboot C:\Windows /s w: /f ALL and press Enter.


Please replace partition letter C: with Windows installed partition letter.  When computer boots into Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) environment the drive letter assign to Windows partition may not be C: drive letter because Windows 7, 8 , 8.1 and 10 creates a separate system partition when it's installed from scratch. The system partition contains boot files WinRE assigns the system partition the C: drive letter and the Windows installed partition will be assign any other drive letter usually D: drive letter is assign to Windows installed partition. The Bcdedit /enum | find "osdevice" command can be use to find out the drive letter of the Windows installed partition the output of the Bcdedit command is similar to this osdevice partition=D:. The drive letter after partition= is the drive letter of the Windows partition.

Hi,

I have entered list volume, I cannot see anything referring to 'system reserved'

Hi @Robcrook101,

Its Volume 3 with FAT32 file system, 100MB partition size and Info section list it as a System.

okay sorry, 

thanks now I have done the code and says boot files successfully created 

 Type bcdboot C:\Windows /s w: /f ALL and press Enter.

C:\Windows\system32>bcdboot C:\Windows /s w: /f ALL
Boot files successfully created.

Please restart your computer to find out issue resolved.

sadly issue came up straight away.

Is it the same error message if its follow the instructions at below tutorial. Any questions please let me know!

How to Rebuild Boot Configuration Data (BCD) on Windows

yes same error message 0xc000000e winload.efi

Okay thank you follow the instructions at the tutorial.

I followed the instructions worked fine until step 15 then it didn't recognise the info and the following 16 didn't work, 17 did so I would guess I would need to do this again if so?

Can you check and see if System volume have been assigned a drive letter if not assign a drive letter to System volume and follow the instructions starting from step 15.

Type diskpart and press Enter.

Type list volume and press Enter.

Under the label row, find the label System Reserved and note its corresponding Volume number.

Select Volume=N and press Enter, where N is the Volume number you noted earlier.

Now type assign letter=w and press Enter.

Type exit and press Enter.

Follow the instructions starting from step 15.

When you assign a drive letter (W) or any other drive letter use this drive letter starting from step 15.

Okay back to step 15 so instead of C:\ should I be in W? Or instead of attrib C:\ it should be W:\ ?

If you have assigned a drive letter W you will use this drive letter so instead of C:\ you will replace it with W:\ same goes for the Ren command.

How is everything progressing, do you need more assistant on this issue?

sorry had to eat, i am trying to understand how to do these next steps, so in command prompt result1/2 do i still do C; or go to W:?

If you have assigned a drive letter W to the System volume then you will execute below commands one at a time.

it says when typing in attrib etc that the path is not found W:\boot

If you can please post a screenshot of below commands outputs.

You have not assigned a drive letter W to the System volume that is the reason commands are not working.

I have also notice System volume now labeled as Hidden this should be no problem but if nothing works we may have to recreate this partition (volume).

Please execute below commands one at a time and post a screenshot of the commands outputs.

Please execute below commands one at time.

Forget to add you need to exit Diskpart before executing above commands type Exit and press Enter key and execute above commands.

okay have done so, it says please wait.. then scussfully scanned and total identified windows installations 0 operation completed successfully.

Execute below commands.



Please post a screenshot of these commands output.

It looks like we need to recreate the System partition but before doing that restart your computer to find out if issue resolved. If issue not resolved then again execute below commands, if again no operating system found we will recreate the System partition.

i did reboot and tried again but BSOD reappeared, so now back into command prompt and have done those two steps again as per your message 0 identified and 0 identified in both and both operations successful.

For me to help you recreate a System partition i need to know which disk the Windows 10 installed on is it installed on Disk 0, disk size 111 GB?

Also you will have to post screenshots some of the command i will ask to execute i need to see output of the commands.

i believe it is windows 10 home and 120GB SSD

Well you have 111GB size disk listed at Diskpart screenshot you have posted others are bigger than 111GB disk, i think this disk is the one where Windows 10 is installed.

https://i.servimg.com/u/f62/19/88/98/09/img_2011.jpg

yes thats what the OS is installed onto

I need you to execute following commands and post a screenshot of the commands output.

Something wrong here for some reason the System partition is missing from the Disk 0 that should not be we have just assigned a drive letter to System partition maybe this is your problem maybe System partition is on different disk.


From Command Prompt execute below commands one at a time:





You may need to replace C: drive letter with Windows 10 installed partition drive letter.

I have to warn you Diskpart tool is very dangers so please make sure to execute Diskpart command carefully.

You have not executed following commands please execute them.

Okay lets hope this will work only one way to found out please restart your computer.

Sadly it has not gone away BSOD on full reboot

Wow this is strange please execute below commands and reboot your computer. Can you also make sure to disconnect all connected external devices you can leave mouse and keyboard connected.

Now getting this I hope this is an improvement

Type Y and press enter key. Installed Windows 10 has been detected this is a good news but what troubles me is that why is Bootrec /Fixboot outputs access denied message.

After typing Y and pressing Enter key, restart your computer.

Did Y and enter

The requested system device cannot be identified due to multiple indistinguishable devices potentially matching the indentification criteria

That is a message i never come a cross let me research this error message. I need complete error message as its displayed at Command Prompt.

I need you to execute below commands and please post a screenshot of the commands output.
