  1. Blue Screen IO1_INITIALIZATION_FAILED after Windows Updates


    I recently updated my windows. Since then I get this blue screen whenever I try to start my computer.


    I tried many things until now:

    • Rebuilding BCD
      • bootrec /fixmbr - works
      • bootrec /fixboot - access denied
      • bootrec /rebuildbcd - found 0 windows installations
    • Rebuilding EFI Partition
      • formatting EFI partition
      • bcdboot C:\Windows /s Y: /f ALL - Works but does nothing
    • CHKDSK
    • SFC
    • Installing GRUB


    Whenever I try to go to the recovery it says:

    That the file \BCD is invalid. But I don't know which file and where? On the windows or efi partition?

    :)

    Hi Jon,

    Startup blue screen error(s) can occur if a problem causes your PC to shut down or restart unexpectedly. It could be due to the following:

    • Outdated device software drivers

    • Software/Security conflicts

    We would like to know some information:

    • Did you get any blue screen stop error codes?
    • Have you tried booting in Safe mode?

    Blue Screen IO1_INITIALIZATION_FAILED after Windows Updates

    Windows 7 Blue Screen of Death!

    This is the first time i have ever got the blue screen, but it keeps on occurring, and so i cannot get onto that hard drive, it shuts down within a second of the blue screen showing itself, which doesnt give me any time to read it lol. So i am completely confused as there is no Path of: "C:\WINDOWS\Minidump" as well

    Thanks for the help, do you have any further suggestions ?
