  2. W10 Upgrade fails with 0xC1900101 - 0x30018 in FIRST_BOOT with error during SYSPREP_SPECIALIZE

    Hi Microsoft and totally not liable supporters,

    since a long time my W10 Upgrade fails starting with 1903.

    I checked many forums and tried many things like e.g. deactivation of non-Microsoft services, only mouse and keyboard attached, de-installation of a lot of old software, update of drivers, checkdisc etc. - but all fails.

    Currently i try desperately to upgrade via MediaCreationTool1909.exe, but no change in the result:

    "We couldn't install Windows 10

    We've set your PC back to the way it was right before started installing Windows 10.

    0xC1900101 - 0x30018 failed in FIRST_BOOT phase with an error during SYSPREP_SPECIALIZE operation."

    Here my log files:

    After off-line removal of AMD driver with DDU and automatic re-install of driver by Windows:

    Any idea or hint of why the upgrade fails would be appreciated.

    Many thanks in advance.

  3. How to perform an In-place Upgrade with Windows 10 Step-by-Step Guide

    The in place upgrade for windows 10 failed with the error code 0x C1900101-0x-30018. Failed on first_boot with an error during SysPrep_Specialize operation. It also told me it could not install windows 10 on this hardware, which would be in error as windows10
    has been installed on the pc for 10 Years. It is only this upgrade to 1903 that has caused a problem.

    Windows 10 Upgrade failed FIRST_BOOT SYSPREP_SPECIALIZE

    Windows 10 upgrade problem, no input accepted

    I really hate having to come here and ask for help, but I really am stumped. It hurts my geek pride. I have a PC with fairly modern hardware in it. It has a p8p67 pro in it. I have tried upgrading windows 10 on it twice now. Both times I have had the same result.

    After windows finishes upgrading it goes to the log in/set up screen. I can't do anything. No keyboard or mouse input is accepted.

    I will list some, or hopefully all, of the troubleshooting steps I have tried:
    • Move keyboard and mouse to different USB ports.
    • Try different keyboard or mouse.
    • Restart computer, repeatedly.
    • Google for related issues.
    • Update Bios, because why not.
    • Create boot media and revert to windows 7.
    The windows 10 system restore boot media works fine with keyboard and mouse. All USB ports work in windows 7. I don't know what is wrong. I suspect that windows 10 is lacking a driver of some sort, but since the computer accepts no input I have no way of checking for which driver let alone installing it.

    Please help me figure this out. If I have to revert back to windows 7 again, I am not going to get it upgraded to windows 10. Thank you in advanced.
