    This morning DELL Windows 10 Pro won't boot. It automatically went to DISK REPAIR but hung.


    Have tried:


    Ran DELL diagnostics: ALL PASSED
    Tried AUTOMATIC REPAIR, says couldn't repair PC
    Tried command line scf/ scannow .. windows resource protection could not perform operation
    Tried UNINSTALL UPDATES, both quality and features .. failed
    Tried STARTUP REPAIR .. fails
    Tried SYSTEM RESTORE .. no restore points available

    The fact DELL diagnostics works makes me think this is a corrupted image or update that went south.


    Doing a reset of Windows is a last resort. Any one else seeing similar?

    :)

    Error Message when updating from Win-7 to Won-10

    Bree
    I followed your suggestions (2nd Aug 19) for installing Win-10. Made the bootable flash drive successfully through the media creation tool. But when I attempted to upgrade and activate to Win-10 (64 bit) from within Win-7 (Pro-32 bit), I got the following error message:

    Error # OxC1900101-Ox20017. " The installation failed in the SAFE_OS phase with an error during BOOT operation"

    I read the diagnostics under this error number and carried out the proposed fixes, i.e. update Win-7, uninstall Malwarebyte antivirus, disconnect all external hardware, e.g. printer, scanner, external hard drives. I then tried to repeat the steps to do the upgrade through the Win-10 bootable flash drive as before. Got the same error message.
    Appreciate any further comments and suggestions as to (a) what does a failure in the SAFE_OS during boot operation mean, (b) what can I do to solve it. Is this anything to do with the hardware in my computer? I listed these in my first posting above.
    Thanks for any help
