  1. "Process1 Initialization Failure" BSOD after trying to update Windows


    Hello,A few days ago I attempted to update Windows on shutdown. The first few times after clicking "update and shut down," the update simply failed to install, was removed, and the laptop shut down and turned on as normal.Now, the update fails and gives a BSOD with the "process1_initialization_failure" error. If I try to exit & continue to Windows, it loops back into the BSOD. If I turn it off and turn it on again, it goes right to the BSOD and I cannot proceed.I've tried running the recommended DSKCHCK and scannow commands in Command Prompt, but it didn't fix anything and wasn't informati

    process1 initialization failed message

    I received an update yesterday and now I get the process1 initialization failed and it is in a continuous reboot cycle. I tried selecting F8 but the keyboard doesnt stay on long enough to go into the settings mode. USB with UBUNTU wont start, Windows
    10 boot disk wont even work... Not sure what to do at this point. This is a large Sony tablet that is sealed so I cant even pull the drive to delete a partition. Any suggestions?
