    Stop code: INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE


    1.Use Windows PE to back up as install.wim. 2.When restoring the install.wim to SSDs of different brands but on the same model of computer, a boot error occurs. However, if it's the same brand of SSD with different capacities, it works normally. *There is no such problem when performing backup and restoration on SSDs of the same brand. *There is also no such problem when doing backup and restoration in Windows 10.

    The error message INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE is frequently occurring because of a boot device failure. During the input and output system initialization, the boot device driver might have failed to initialize the boot device (hard disk). We found an
    article about the specific stop code and how to resolve it. We suggest following the
    solution recommended to resolve the issue.

    Update us with the outcome so we can provide you further assistance.

    Moving to RAID 0 - INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE


    I am converting an existing Windows 10 Pro laptop to RAID 0 - and I keep getting to the final boot where it says INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE. What am I doing wrong? The laptop has two 1 TB Samsung 850 SSDs that are identical. Laptop is a HP Zbook 17.

    Here are my steps:

    1. Made a good System Image of C: drive on separate external SSD drive connected by USB. D: drive didn't have anything on it to be saved.
    2. Used Win 10 Pro DVD to delete all partitions/format drives.
    3. Went into BIOS and changed from AHCI to RAID, and also to turn on ability to do Control-I to get to Intel RST ROM.
    4. Rebooted, did Control-I, created a RAID 0 of the two disks.
    5. Rebooted, installed Windows 10 fresh. Verified it would reboot on its own.
    6. Rebooted, went into Repair on Windows 10 DVD. Selected external SSD image to do image restore from.
    7. Rebooted - verified on Control-I that the RAID 0 array is listed as "bootable"
    8. Rebooted - get INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE.

    The place it dies - I see the little Windows 10 blue window, and the spinning circle at the bottom - then I get the blue screen with the message.

    I think I listed everything I did - what am I missing?

    INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE after Windows Update


    My Windows 10 Pro PC received the latest round of updates, and when it restarted, it bluescreens with the error INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE.

    I did a system restore to a previous restore point, and everything booted and ran perfectly, but of course it then goes out to get the latest updates, and the same thing happens with it bluescreening and throwing the INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE error.

    I followed many suggestions from a Google Search including disconnecting all drives other than the boot drive, running chkdsk /f on the boot drive, allowing Windows 10 to "auto-fix startup problems", and several other things, and it always bluescreens.

    I temporarily disabled the Windows Update service so it doesn't go out and auto-grab the updates, but at some point, I will need to apply updates, and I expect future updates to result in the same bluescreen error.

    Suggestions?
