The 0xc000000f prolem: boot inaccessible
Hey all, my laptop has recently gotten the 0xc000000f error that is pretty common.
"Status: 0xc000000fc
Info: The boot selection failed because a required device is inaccessible"
Sony VPCEB Windows 7, came pre-installed, no disk of any sort.
This error started occuring after I USED THE POWER BUTTON TO SHUTOFF after a computer freeze. I read that what I did might have ruined my HD, so I might have to restore to default, but i have very important work on my computer I would rather not lose..
For several hours, I've been culling through and attempting several solutions I've found on the internet.
Cannot log onto any account.
Seeing how I do not have a windows 7 install disk, I borrowed my friends PIRATED copy of win7. Attempting to get into the repair computer option only leads to it attempting to load forever.
I burned my own copy of a win7 recovery disk, but that turns out to give me an I/O error (is this just result of a bad burn? the only thing capable of burning disk is a VERY old and slow computer)
Any type of advanced boot option only leads to the error.
I've read that there is just something wrong with my BOOTMGR, but the only way to fix it is with the recovery console. I have not installed it pre-error and the only way to get it is through the repair computer option which does not work for me :[
Please help me out guys!
