Windows 10: Incorrectly configured the Boot Advanced Options

I have altered the Processor and Memory settings for the System Configuration - BOOT Advanced options. MSConfig App. I increased the Processor and Memory the to maximum values available.Having done the alteration, I laptop failed to reboot. It has stopped at the point it shows the windows logo. My laptop runs Windows 7.Could someone please let me know how I can reverse this settings?

:)

 

How does Windows boot to advanced recovery option e.g. command prompt?

- that gives me a 454 'Unexpected error' This tells me that the BCD is partially corrupted.

The commands: shutdown.exe /r /o /f /t 00
or: %SystemRoot%\System32\Cmd.exe /c reagentc /boottore&shutdown /r /f /t 00
should boot into Recovery if everything is configured correctly.
FYI, If Windows is configured correctly:

1. If Reagentc is disabled, you still can get into Recovery but with limited options.
2. If Reagentc is enabled, you'll get all options.
3. If you boot Windows using Recovery USB stick, You'll get into Recovery with couple of options missing.

Here's my suggestion if you want to try:
OPTION 1: Will save the trouble of re-install Windows.

1. Download the image of my first 3 partitions (450MB Recovery, 100 MB EFI partition, and 16MB unformatted primary)
   EFI_Boot-00-00.7z - Google Drive
2. Run Macrium and restore the image from step 1, overwriting your existing 1st three partitions, leaving C alone.
3. Delete the 490MB Recovery partition.
4. From Macrium, run fix boot problems.
5. Reboot. Open Admin command prompt then run Reagentc /info to make sure that it is enabled. If not, enable it.
   if failed to enable, reboot and try again.

OPTION 2: Assuming you've already had Windows backup with Macrium.

1. Wipe out the first 5 parttiions. (450MB, 100MB, 16MB, C Drive, 480MB)
2. Fresh install Windows 10
3. Restore C drive from backup image, run fix boot problems
4. repeat step 5 from OPTION 1 above.

 

System configuration boot advanced options.

I have 2x 4 core Intel xeon 5470 processors and 64 GB 800htz fully buffered memory.

Boot advanced options in system configuration says number of processors = 1 and Maximum memory =0

Should I change them to 2 and 65536 and make all boot settings permanent?

 

BitLocker Startup Options Configured Incorrectly

Hi,
I recently installed a Gigabyte TPM module onto my Gigabyte motherboard to enable BitLocker on my Windows OS drive. However, attempting to configure BitLocker, I get the "Startup options on this PC are configured incorrectly." message.

I was in local GPO and enabled the Disallow standard users from changing PIN and Enable use of BitLocker authenication require preboot keyboard input.

Neither policy has worked. If I enable to use additional authentication at startup, BitLocker will load with the option to use a USB key to boot the PC, which I do not want.

I was looking for ideas on how to get my PC to boot normally (just like a OEM PC works with BitLocker) without the need of a startup key or PIN.

Thanks!
