    Error (STATUS:0xc000000f) while doing recovery on Dell win 7


    Hello,

    I want to do factory settings on my system as it is running very slow now. But when i do F8 ----> Repair my system , i get an error saying windows failed to start. STATUS: 0xc000000f INFO: The boot selection failed because a required device is inaccessible.

    What does it mean? it has something to do with my recovery partition? i have given snapshots of my recovery partition. i added a label/drive H to it. When i open the contents of recovery partition i see nothing. check attachments. but the size of partition is 8-9GB.

    Help me out. Read so many articles on recovery partitions, backup, restore. Nothing helped. So, at last joined this forum and posting my problem.

    Regards

    Piyush

    Searching on my problem i got this:

    Can't see "Dell Factory Image Restore" for Win7? - Microsoft OS Forum - Software & Operating Systems - Dell Community

    See the Suggested answer Posted by SpeedStep on 12 Apr 2012 9:27 AM. Scroll bot you will find this comment. Just use the Dell Datasafe Local Backup. Now i have a bootable USB and my lappy is back to factory settings.:)

    I hope this will help others who have the same problem.
