    Event Viewer shows Kernel-Boot Event ID 29 when Windows 11 attempts fast startup but cannot complete the process. The error status 0xC00000D4 indicates a hibernation file read/write failure, often accompanied by the system logging an Unexpected shutdown (Event ID 6008).

    Hi,

    I've been experiencing issues with my PC. It turns off randomly while playing games, not while doing other tasks. In some games the system will completely go black without shutting down; for example: Mouse, Keyboard and Screen will turn off and fans will reduce their speed without stoping, forcing me to restart my pc holding the power button. After logging into windows, Event Viewer will show me these issues.

    1) Windows failed fast startup with error status 0xC00000D4.Event 29, kernel-Boot

    2) The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power

    3) The server Windows.Gaming.GameBar.PresenceServer.Internal.PresenceWriter did not register with DCOM within the required timeout.

    4) The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Launch permission for the COM Server application with CLSID

    Windows.SecurityCenter.WscDataProtection and APPID Unavailable to the user NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM SID (S-1-5-8) from address LocalHost (Using LRPC) running in the application container Unavailable SID (Unavailable). This security permission can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool.

    Failed fast startup

    Hi,

    I have been facing this issue for a while now. While fast startup is enabled, my laptop has very rarely fast startup, and when checking the events viewer, it would always state the following:

    error) Event 29, Kernel boot: Windows failed fast startup with error status 0xC00000D4.

    (error) Event 6006, EventLog: The previous system shutdown at [xxxx] AM on [yyyy] was unexpected.

    (critical) Event 41, Kernel-Power: The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.

    Event 1101, EventLog: Audit events have been dropped by the transport. 0

    Then usually 4 or 5 of

    Event 10016, DistributedCOM: The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID

    Any idea how to fix this and make fast startup work again?
