status: \boot\bcd 0xc000000f

Hello

I tried to set up the factory configuration, after having instabilities in the system, using the 4 DVD I've burned, but at the end of installation, I received the following message:

File: \boot\BCD

status: 0xc000000f

Info: an error occurred trying to read the boot configuration data.

I have a pavilion hp DV6 notebook, windows 7 is installed.

Help, please.

Hello

I would say that the next step would be to exclude a potential problem with the recovery discs.

There is a simple way to check this if you have (or can borrow) an installation disc Windows 7 at retail which is exactly the same version as your OEM installation - IE if your laptop comes with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, it comes to the retail version accurate, you would need.

If you do not access to the retail drives, you can create an installation disk yourself - just download good picture disc from the link below and use an app like ImgBurn to burn the ISO on a CD blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write that an ISO on a disc is here.  These Images are clean and a well respected source, however there are only limited versions available.

http://www.mydigitallife.info/Download-Windows-7-ISO-official-32-bit-and-64-bit-direct-download-link...

Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key is located on the underside of your laptop when asked and once installation is complete, use the 'method of phone", described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system - this method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want just a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally delivered with OEM Windows installations.

All additional drivers you need for your specific model is found from here.

    The following assumes that you are running Windows 7.

    If you do not, use another PC to create a rescue CD Windows 7.  Download the ISO relevant among the links below - if you are unsure of the version, your laptop is listed as coming from a 64-bit installation.

    Windows 7 32 bit

    Windows 7 64 bit

    You must use an app like ImgBurn to burn the ISO to a CD-( Note: you can deselect additional software during installation of ImgBurn options)- hereis a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write an ISO on a disc.

    One time created, or if you already have this, typing away at the esc key when you launch Notepad to open the Start Menu.  Insert the rescue CD.  Select boot options (usually f9), use the arrow keys to select the CD/DVD drive and press ENTER.  You can also get a prompt to "Press any key to" continuous - it if requested.

    When loading, select repair your computer and choose the command line.  When this charge, enter the following commands and press on enter after everyone – including spaces as shown.

    I know not how to solve this problem using the diskette provided by dell and I see a lot of people have the same problem.

    Microsoft gave instructions on how to solve this problem, but they did not address the cause,

    Everything works fine until there is an another update of Vista then it does again?

    Why is this and how can it be solved for good?

  • FILE: \BOOT \BCD - formatted status 0xc000000f for latpop error

    I formatted the hard drive of my laptop and has been installing windows 7 when it crashed at halfway.

    Now when I restart the computer its give the FILE: \BOOT \BCD - status 0xc000000f error.
    I tried recovery to start by inserting the windows startup disk, but as the system has no any OS, it is not repairable.  Tried the disc start recovery and orders bootrec quick functions.
    Can anyone suggest how I can fix it. Or is it simply because my laptop currently has no OS and thus this error?

    Test your hard drive for errors. If you have sector errors near the front or at the beginning of the disk, this could be the cause.

    Hard drive test - CD Bootable:
    Ranging from 5 to 20% (depending on the manufacturing) new hard disks are defective. Test your drive with the factory utility. If you have a new hard drive Seagate the very next thing would be to download Seagate Seatools (bootable CD) and check bad sectors:

    Hi Maddy,

    This problem may occur if the Windows startup files are damaged or missing.

    If your computer has integrated system recovery options, you can try to perform the Startup Repair and check if it helps.

    If it fails, you must have a Windows Vista installation disc and try to parade Startup Repair boot from the disc.

    If the problem persists, try the steps in the article to rebuild BCD, boot from the installation disc.

    Use the Bootrec.exe tool in the Windows recovery environment to troubleshoot and repair startup issues in Windows

    Because you replaced the hard drive, you can also get in contact with the Dell helpdesk for assistance.

    Hope the helps of information.

    Hello

    Unfortunately it would look as the volume is indeed corrupt, which coupled with the error of the DST, would tend to confirm that the drive has indeed failed.

    Now my best suggestion would be to contact HP immediately and get the HARD drive replaced under warranty - make sure you always have a set of recovery discs/media to reinstall the operating system on the new drive, if you have not, you should be able to order it at the same time.
