My PC wont boot error code 0xc00000e9



My PC wont boot error code 0xc00000e9


My PC wont boot - error code 0xc00000e9:



                   error code 0xc00000e9

My computer randomly (at least seemingly) froze a couple days ago. I had to manually restart my computer with the power button. After I restarted it, my computer would not get past the opening windows screen. It would usually just freeze and after a couple more trys, I was greeted with an error message that says:


Windows has has encountered a problem communicating with a device connected to your computer.


This error can be caused by unplugging a removable storage device such as an external USB drive while the device is in use, or by faulty hardware such as a hard drive or CD-ROM drive that is failing. Make sure any removable storage is properly connected and then restart your computer.

If you continue to receive this error message, contact the hardware manufacturer.

Status: 0xc00000e9

Info: An unexpected I/O error has occurrred.

I then shut down my computer and made sure that everything was connected (HDD, CD Drive, etc.) was connected properly. However, nothing I have tried so far including startup repair has worked. Ive searched around forums for a while now with no results.

Any help or suggestions?

Thanks.

1.UEFI, Tiano, BIOS Courses
Courses on UEFI, Tiano and legacy BIOS firmware and boot sequences.
2.A virus has infected your Bios and changed the drive from a SATA to a PATA or ATA or vice versa.
3.reboot and log into the BIOS and change the hard drive setting
So i went into my BIOS but IIm not sure what Im looking for. The only thing i found related to SATA is Sata ports settings where u have 3 choices (AHCI, RAID, IDE) but ive tried all 3 of those and none of them produce any good results. Anything else I should be looking for?

Remove dual boot options or boot choice menu in Windows



Remove dual boot options or boot choice menu in Windows


If you have recently installed new operating system in a separate partition other than the default/previous partition then the boot choice menu appears even if you have format the previous operating system.


To remove this boot choice menu, enter into the newly installed operating system and click Start > Run > type msconfig and hit Enter.

For XP users:
Select Boot.INI tab > locate the last two lengthy lines if you have two boot choices and delete the unnecessary os.

If you do not know which line to delete, compare with the third line, if they are not same for some extent [eg disk(0)partition(1) in third line and disk(0)partition(2) in last line] then delete that last line.




For Vista/7 users:
Select Boot tab > select the previously installed os in the list box (for eg:Windows 7 Ultimate (D:windows)) and click Delete button.

Click Apply > OK and Restart the PC.




Warning! Do not delete the default/current os line, then you will never boot into the PC thereafter.

How to Create a Clean BCD file to fix Windows 7 8 8 1 Boot problem



How to Create a Clean BCD file to fix Windows 7 8 8 1 Boot problem


Note: Not for UEFI systems

So your Windows 7 PC System no longer boots and you are getting the "...An error occurred while attempting to read the boot configuration data." system error. You have reached the point that all suggestions on startup repair have failed and you may now have to re-create a clean boot configuration data (BCD) file. The following information on creating a clean, fresh BCD file maybe helpful to you.

We are going to use a system command called BCDedit to re-create the BCD file.

Introduction
BCDedit is a really powerful tool that Windows 7 and Windows Vista uses to manage the boot loader entries.

BCDEDIT needs a boot loader file to boot your system.

A boot loader is a file that contains necessary information that instruct the system how to boot/start an operating system.
• Windows 7 and Vista bootloader file is ootmgr
• Windows XP bootloader file is tldr

Bcdedit edits a file called BCD, which is located in Windows 7s hidden partition under C: ootBCD.

NOTE: Before performing any changes to your system, please make sure you have a backup of system and personal data files. A backup is essential if things go wrong, when you are making changes to your system.

How to Create a Clean BCD file:
Put your Windows 7 DVD in the drive and restart your PC. Assuming youve properly configured your BIOS to boot from CDs/DVDs before hard drives, you should get a prompt asking you to "Press any key to boot from the CD/DVD..."
Go ahead and press any key.
In the next window, select "Repair your computer" to continue.
On the next window, choose the Windows 7 installation that youd like to perform the repair on.
Click the Next button.
Proceed with the process by choosing "Command Prompt" from this list [Image below]. We could select the "Startup Repair" to fix the boot problem, but we are assuming that you already tried this option and it did not work.
In the Command Prompt window we shall perform a number of commands to create the new BCD file.



Note: Were assuming that the boot drive is drive C: below. If your computer is configured differently, be sure to use the appropriate drive letter here instead. Each command shown below is separated by a newline for display purposes only. So, command and its switches must be on the same line.

Enter the following commands:

bootrec.exe /fixmbr
X: oot ootsect.exe /nt60 all /force


Replace X in the command line above with the device letter to the CD/DVD drive that is running your Windows 7 Recovery Disk.

Now remove the old BCD registry, and create a new one instead.

del C: oot cd

bcdedit /createstore c: oot cd.tmp

bcdedit.exe /store c: oot cd.tmp /create {bootmgr} /d "Windows Boot Manager"

bcdedit.exe /import c: oot cd.tmp

bcdedit.exe /set {bootmgr} device partition=C:

bcdedit.exe /timeout 12

del c: oot cd.tmp


Now we have a clean, working Win 7 bootloader. But we need to add a Win 7 entry to it:

bcdedit.exe /create /d "Windows 7" /application osloader

bcdedit.exe should return a message with a GUID for the newly-created entry. It will look something like this:

The entry {fc8bcc18-8a93-11df-baf9-806e6f6e6963} was successfully created.

Youll need to use the value that bcdedit.exe returned for you below, along with the drive letter for the drive that Windows 7 is installed to:

bcdedit.exe /set {fc8bcc18-8a93-11df-baf9-806e6f6e6963} device partition=C:

bcdedit.exe /set {fc8bcc18-8a93-11df-baf9-806e6f6e6963} osdevice partition=C:

bcdedit.exe /set {fc8bcc18-8a93-11df-baf9-806e6f6e6963} path Windowssystem32winload.exe

bcdedit.exe /set {fc8bcc18-8a93-11df-baf9-806e6f6e6963} systemroot Windows


And, last of all, tell the Windows 7 bootloader to boot the new entry by default:

bcdedit.exe /displayorder {fc8bcc18-8a93-11df-baf9-806e6f6e6963}

bcdedit.exe /default {fc8bcc18-8a93-11df-baf9-806e6f6e6963}


Now the Windows 7 bootloader has been removed and rebuilt from scratch.

At this point, you have a clean and hopefully a fully-working bootloader with one entry for Windows 7.

Reboot your PC system to get back into Windows 7.

Enjoy!!!

Dual Boot Windows 7 and OS X Snow Leopard Using Chameleon



Dual Boot Windows 7 and OS X Snow Leopard Using Chameleon


Posted by tonymacx86 on Thursday, November 26, 2009
(Modified by MACWIN to make it more simpler and comfortable on Nov 01,2011)


Using Chameleon as your bootloader, you can boot an infinite amount of operating systems on your PC. Its simple to use a separate hard drive for each operating system.


The following guide will show you how to put OS X Snow Leopard and Windows 7 on the same hard drive. You can then use Chameleon to select either Snow Leopard or Windows 7 at boot time. Its a bit trickier, as the Windows installer will set itself as the active partition automatically The latest MultiBeast will take care of choosing boot0hfs instead of boot0 to automatically boot from hfs partition, even if its inactive.  


YOU WILL NEED

  • A computer running an Intel Processor.

  • A blank CD

  • A Mac OS X Snow Leopard Retail DVD

  • A Windows 7 Installation DVD (Retail/OEM)

  • Its easy to get frustrated, but dont give up!  There are a community of users with similar hardware in the tonymacx86 Forum to provide support if you get stuck.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

  • If you have greater than 4gb of RAM, remove the extra RAM for a maximum of 4gb.  You can put back any extra RAM in after the installation process.

  • Use only 1 graphics card in the 1st PCIe slot with 1 monitor plugged in.

  • Remove any hard drives besides the blank drive being used for OS X.

  • Remove any USB peripherals besides keyboard and mouse.

  • Remove any PCI cards besides graphics- they may not be Mac compatible.

  • If using a Gigabyte 1156 board, use the blue Intel SATA ports- not the white Gigabyte SATA ports.

  • Its best to use an empty hard drive- you will have to partition and format the drive. 

  • Always back up any of your important data.

STEP 1: BIOS SETTINGS


You will need to set your BIOS to ACHI mode and your Boot Priority to boot from CD-ROM first.  This is the most important step, and one many people overlook.  Make sure your bios settings match these.  Its not difficult- the only thing I did on my Gigabyte board besides setting Boot Priority to CD/DVD first was set Optimized Defaults, change SATA to AHCI mode, and set HPET to 64-bit mode.


  STEP 2: PARTITIONING HARD DRIVE
 In order to boot the Mac OS X Retail DVD, youll need to download and burn iBoot.  For desktops and laptops using unsupported Intel CPUs and graphics, a legacy version of iBoot can be downloaded here. (HP Users Use Legacy iBoot or Boot with CPUS=1) Download iBoot
  1. Burn the image to CD

  2. Place iBoot in CD/DVD drive

  3. Restart computer

  4. Boot to iBoot CD and then eject iBoot


  1. Insert your Mac OS X Snow Leopard Retail DVD and press F5

  2. When you see the screen below, press enter to begin the boot process

  1. When you get to the installation screen, open Utilities/Disk Utility.  NOTE: If you cannot get to the installation screen, retry from Step 4, type PCIRootUID=1 before hitting enter. If that doesnt work then try PCIRootUID=1 -x or just -x which will enter Mac OS X Safe Mode and will allow you to proceed.


8.      If you have unsupported Graphics Card boot with –X . { E.g. At Bootloader screen select OSX install Disk and hit Spacebar and type cpus=1 –x –v and hit enter. )


9.      First thing to do is format and partition the hard drive. When you choose 2 partitions with a GUID Partition Table, OS X will format the drive with 3 partitions. Partition 1 is EFI, Partition 2 will be Snow Leopard and Partition 3 will be Windows 7. The EFI partition is a very small (200mb) hidden partition that holds the OS X bootloader and BIOS information on a real Mac.


10.  Open Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility


1.      Select your hard drive in the left column. Click the Partition tab

2.      Under Volume Scheme: separate your hard drive into 2 Partitions. You can make them any size you want.

3.      Click Options... choose GUID Partition Table, then click OK.

4.      Click Untitled 1. Under Name:type Snow Leopard. Under Format: choose Mac OS Extended (Journaled).

5.     

6.      Click Untitled 2. Under Name: type Windows 7. Under Format: choose MSDOS (FAT).

7.      
8.      Click Apply and close Disk Utility.

9.      Insert Windows 7 DVD in tray.

10.  Unplug all hard drives except this one and reboot.



STEP 2: INSTALL WINDOWS 7
Now you will install Windows 7 to Partition 3. Youll have to reformat it to NTFS in the Windows 7 installer before Windows will let you install. We labeled it Windows 7 in the previous step.

  1. Wait for Windows to begin installation process.

  2. Accept license agreement.

  3. At Which type of installation do you want, choose Custom (Advanced)

  4. At Where do you want to install Windows, choose Partition 3: Windows 7.

  5. Click Drive options (advanced).

  6. Click format.

  7. Click OK.

  8. Click Next.


At this point, Windows 7 will install to Partition 3. The installer will reboot the computer a few times- just leave it until you complete the installation process and see the Windows desktop.

STEP 3: INSTALL SNOW LEOPARD
The next step is to install Snow Leopard to Partition 2.

iBoot + MultiBeast- Install OS X on any Intel-based PC
