Installation media boots to command prompt

I've just booted from known working install media to see exactly what it does when booting. The sequence of events is...

1. Windows logo on a black screen
2. circling dots appear beneath the logo
3. light blue 'Please wait' screen with circling dots
4. a command prompt window (very briefly)
5. the initial Setup page appears

Do you see steps 1-3? If so, it appears you have stopped at step 4, suggesting that something on the disc cannot be read.

Does the disc boot properly in another machine? If so, try cleaning the laptop's drive lens then try booting from the disc again.

If not, make new install media with Microsoft's Media Creation Tool, either as a bootable USB, on an ISO that you can burn to another disc. At Step 8 in Option One of this tutorial you can choose between making a USB or an ISO.

Download Windows 10 ISO File

 

command prompt will not open in safe mode with command prompt

Would I just follow the same steps within safe mode after hooking up to the other system?

 

Simplifying updates for Windows 7 and 8.1

0x8007000E is fixed by KB3102810! 229 important and 9 optionals updates found in under 5 minutes!



Going to try putting that into the slipstream as well and if it works, all should be...as it should be. That said, that's a lot of updates post-rollup. I wonder if they aren't installed but they're already available.


Edit: Can't edit the post with the instructions so here is an updated instruction list. Note that these are for x86. The DISM commands need to be adjusted for other platforms:

• Download Windows 7 Professional SP1 (SP1 is very, very important because there's no way to offline update gold to SP1).
• Mount the ISO and extract it somewhere.
• Create a folder "C:\test"
• Copy "\sources\install.wim" from the mounted ISO and place it in "C:\test"
• Download KB3020369 and place the MSU in "C:\test"
• Download KB3102810 and place the MSU in "C:\test"
• Download KB3125574 and place the MSU in "C:\test" but NOTE, this step requires Internet Explorer (tested with 11) running from an administrator account. You can't use a limited user account and log in when prompted. It will do nothing if you do.
• Create the folder "C:\test\offline"
• Start the Command Prompt as administrator.
• The next 4 steps are ran in the command prompt. Mount install.wim:
  
• Apply the PackageManager patch, the Windows Update patch, and then begin applying the rollup. Note: this will fail at 33.3%!
  
• Apply the rollup again so it goes through 100%:
  
• Save the mounted image back into your install.wim:
