Bluescreen error C000021a, when installing Windows 7

Hi all

I get this blue screen whenever I try to install windows 7.
Details you need to know:
  • I just replaced my hard drive with a new one.
  • Old hard drive: 500 GB Samsung SATA.
  • New hard drive: SATA 500 GB Western Digital.
  • Laptop model is MSI FX420.
  • Previous operating system before replacing the hard drive is Windows 7.
  • What I'm trying to do is install Windows 7.
Problem - cannot install because after windows loads the files for installation, and just after the windows logo appears, the blue screen appears.

Hello world

Thanks for your replies. I've solved this problem and the solution is quite simple - installed Windows 8 instead of Windows 7. I don't know if it's my installation disc which is the problem (but was probably not) or the version of the OS is to be installed. But of course, it wasn't a problem of compatibility or functionality with my hard drive.
My assumption, it seems that the installation process of Windows 8 is different from Windows 7 in a way that win 8 has been able to complete the installation successfully without displaying error then Win 7 displays a blue screen error just after loading of the installation files. Maybe it's trying to find old stuff from my old hard drive configuration? (Sorry no idea on this area in concrete).
Good news is that my laptop now works on Windows 8 Pro! Hope that helps people out there with similar problem.
Thank you!

  • Error 646 when installing Windows updates

    Whenever I try to install the following updates to the window, I get the error 646 answer:

    KB981715 KB980729 KB978382 KB978380

    I use Vista and Internet Explorer

    Sorry, you have problems getting your patches installed. I have a number of things for you to look at.  First of all, are your Windows Update and the Background Intelligent Transer Services set to Automaticand started . You can check these settings by typing services.msc in the search box of the start menu.

    Sometimes in order to get patches to install correctly, you must perform these tasks manually.

    (1) Download Center to visit Microsoft: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/default.aspx.
    (2) search for each update code that begins with the letters "KB" and followed by a set of numbers (i.e. KB979309).
    3) click on the link for the download and then click on download and run.  You must accept the contract agreement, and then click continue.
    (4) repeat this process for each download of updates Windows could not install.
    (5) to rerun the update from Microsoft, click find updates.  If all goes well, it will show that you are completely patched.

    If this does not work, try to run the Microsoft OneCare safety scanner.  Sometimes it will solve problems of hidden registry, or erase viruses can prevent the installation of patches: http://onecare.live.com/site/en-us/center/whatsnew.htm. Click full service scan, and then Quick scan (full scan takes a long time to complete). Try the patches.

  • Error 80080008 while installing Windows updates.

    Original title: suziwhy

    I tried to upgrade to 8.1 windows, but he refused in the end.

    Now, I get a 80080008 error whenever I try to install the updates.

    Can anyone help? Please

    Hi Suziwhy,

    1 are you this error during upgrade to Windows 8.1 or during the installation of Windows updates?

    2. What is the brand and model of the computer?

    If you get this error when installing Windows updates, then it normally occurs because the file Wups2.dll included in the latest version of Windows Update is incorrectly installed or became non registered.

    I suggest you to re - register the Wups2.dll file and check if this solves the problem.

    Follow the steps to re - register the file by using the command prompt:

    a. press the Windows key + X , and then select (admin) command prompt.

    b. run the following commands and press ENTER after each one:

    net stop wuauserv

    regsvr32 %windir%\system32\wups2.dll

    c. now, you will receive a verification message that the DLL is registered. Click OK.

    d. start the automatic updates service. To do this, type the following command at the prompt (admin) command and press ENTER:

    net start wuauserv

    e. type Exit.

    Hello mnaveen.kumar,

    Search the registry to see if this key was created. Sometimes, the installation program does not have permission to this key.

    Hi Syed,

    Thanks for the reply with the status of the issue.

    I suggest you try to install the drivers for Windows 7 in compatibility mode and check if it works for you. I saw this troubleshooting procedure described working for other members of the community.

    Step 1: Download the driver for the Webcam from this link of Lenovo.

    http://support.Lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?docid=DS015018

    Step 2: Installing the driver in compatibility mode.

    Make the programs more compatible with this version of Windows:
