    error code: 0xc0000098

    Hi,

    The the 0xc0000098 error can appear due to a corrupted BCD (Boot Configuration Data) file. This can be due to a change in the hardware. There is also a possibility that Windows files or the hard drive was damaged on some cases. In this case, we suggest to boot
    from windows 10 installation disc and kindly follow the steps provided by
    Teemo Tang     on this
    link    .

    Should you have further concerns, feel free to post.

    Regards.

    I have a pc laptop with corrupt boot files. The error code is: 0xc0000098.

    Need help to resolve Windows 10 Error Code: 0xc0000098 (your PC/Device needs to repaired)

    I recently moved to windows 10 from windows 7.
    Once I restarted my PC, it was stuck to Operating System Not Found.

    Then I used bootable USB to repair a laptop.

    On the first go, I tried below steps.

    1. Enabled External Boot Device in boot setting menu
    2. Completed language setting
    3. Clicked on Repair your computer which is just below Install Now option
    4. Opted for Troubleshoot option
    5. Went to Advanced options
    6. Clicked on Startup Repair

    After all the above steps, it just stuck to a blue page mentioning Error Code: 0xc0000098

    Now every time I try to repair a laptop using a bootable USB, it always stuck to this blue page. I have posted a video having this problem .
