Windows 10: system failure

Hi, after a black screen and "preparing automatic repair" no fixes worked. I created a bootable drive on a usb, altered the bios/uefi settings and did a clean install. Everything went well until the final restart when the screen went back to initial startup (language, keyboard etc). On exiting I now have a blue screen as follows

File \EFI\Microsoft\Boot\BCD

Error 0xc000000F Boot configuration data is missing or has errors.

What do I do now?

Hi Jack,

I realize the inconvenience you are facing. Let me help you in resolving the issue.

I suggest you to run System file checker. System File checker (SFC) scan is done to check if there are any corrupted system files that could be causing this issue. Kindly follow the below given steps:

• 
  Press Windows key + X, select
  Command prompt (Admin) to bring up elevated Command prompt.
  
• 
  In Command prompt type
  sfc /scannow and press enter.
  
• 
  Restart the computer.
  
  If no corrupted system files were found in the previous state, then I suggest you to try the following steps:
  

• 
  Open command prompt by pressing
  Windows key + X and selecting “Command prompt admin”.
  
• 
  In command prompt, type the following commands and press Enter after each command:
  
  DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth
  
  DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth
  

• Close the command prompt and restart the PC and check if it works.

Keep us posted on Windows related queries and we will be happy to assist you further.
