Can I fix stop code 0xc00021a without doing a fresh install?

Hi,

R. Cord here, Independent Expert. Hope you are doing well.

The stop code 0xc00021a usually indicates a critical system process has failed, and it can be caused by a variety of issues, including corrupted system files, faulty hardware, or incompatible drivers.

Given the steps you've already taken, it's possible that the issue might be related to hardware failure or corruption that cannot be fixed without a fresh install of the operating system. However, there are a few more things you can try before resorting to that option:

Use the Windows installation media to boot into the Windows Recovery Environment and try the Startup Repair tool. This tool can automatically diagnose and repair startup issues, including those caused by corrupt system files.

Check your hard drive for errors by running the chkdsk command from the command prompt. This command scans your hard drive for errors and can fix any issues it finds.

Run a virus scan to check if your system has been infected with malware that might be causing the issue.

Try a system restore to a previous point in time before the issue started happening. If you have a restore point, this may be a good way to restore your system to a working state without losing your files.

If you have access to another computer, you can remove the hard drive from your current computer and connect it to the other computer as an external drive. This will allow you to access your files and back them up before attempting a fresh install of Windows.

If none of these steps work, it may be necessary to back up your files and do a fresh install of Windows. It's important to note that doing so will result in the loss of any installed programs and custom settings, so be sure to back up everything important beforehand.

I recommend to check out MS topic and provide the steps mentioned in topic.:

Can I fix stop code 0xc00021a without doing a fresh install?

So it's been about a month of this **** and I still can't seem to fix anything, it started after my mouse froze on my screen so I restarted my computer via the box and when I turned it back on I got a blue screen with the stop code "0xc00021a" I have to many things on my computer so I can't use a portable hard drive to move everything unless I buy like 5 of them and I cant lose any of my files or apps (the softwares I use only give me a 1 time key that I've already redeemed after I reset my pc last year)

Here's a list of things I have tried:

• All the SFC commands (told me it couldn't preform the action)
  
• Tried chkdsk (said it couldn't preform the action)
  
• Uninstalling the latest updates (it said there was none to uninstall)
  
• Booting in safemode (I get a bluescreen)
  
• Disable signature (get bluescreen)
  
• Got a usb with the installation media (can't get it to boot with it without a bluescreen so thats just a huge loop)
  
• Tried auto repair (get bluescreen)
  
• Opened note pad using the command prompt to see my files (all files weren't showing but the storage said they were there)
  
• Tried to disable the windows anti-virus (got bluescreen)
  

I know that the pc has to be missing some important window files because of the stopcode so is there anything I can do to repair them using a usb? Or am I just screwed??

 

How to factory reset Cisco 1700 Router

Hopefully I can help you here....its a very common thing to happen.


First, I take it you dont know the passwords for console access or telnet/ssh?

I will assume that these devices belong to you.

step 1. Plug a cisco console cable into a serial port on your pc
step 2. Plug other end into Cisco console port
step 3. Using hyperterm or putty or similar connect to the serial port
step 4. boot router, and make sure you clearly can see the output (this confirms you have good serial comms)
step 5. if this fails, adjust the comm port settings (9600, 8,1,n are the default)
step 6. now you have to do the only hard part...send the break command:

Break command list: Break Commands

Go down the list and match your OS and SW and try the sequence suggested.

If this fails several times do what I do: Install putty (free) and then to send a break so you can get into rommom just hit "ctrl-a b".
