  1. Windows Startup Options Not Loading Only a screen flash


    Hi, I recently turned on my Lenovo PC and was met with a "preparing automatic repair" message. I was then met with a bluescreen with the error message of 0xc00000e9 at the file of \windows\system32\winload.efiThis is where it gets weird. There are four options. I can either:- Press enter to try again repeats process- Press F1 to enter recovery environment says "please wait" and repeats the process- Press F8 for startup settings causes the screen to glitch and flash for a second and then goes back to the bluescreen- Press Esc for UEFI Firmware settings Leads to the BIOS screen, more belo

    :)

    Windows Startup Options Not Loading Only a screen flash

    windows 10 no advanced-startup-options, so no startup settings

    when i did 1. 2. 3. steps i checked and problem was SOLVED
    but after 4. 5. 6. 7. steps i checked and no advanced startup options again

    1. Make a complete backup image of your current HD including all partitions to an external HD using macrium reflect . Once done, disconnect all USB devices from the PC. Assuming now you only have one HD connected to the PC which you will be installing Windows.
      IMPORTANT: Also create a Macrium Rescue disk to boot from later on.
    2. Boot up your Windows installation USB/DVD. On the first screen, Hold SHIFT + F10 to open Command Windows then type:
      Diskpart
      select disk 0
      clean
      exit
    3. Click Next, Choose Custom, select the unallocated partition then click Next (Do not format), when asked for Product ID key, click on "Skip this step"/"Do it later". Continue the Installation.
    4. Once done. With the external HD connected, Reboot your PC with the Macrium Rescue disk, select the image that you created in step 1 as the Source.
    5. Select your current HD/SSD as Destination disk
    6. Restore only C: Drive to it. ie. overwrite the new C: Drive with your backup C: Drive.
      NOTE: See screen shot on how to perform this step
    7. Disconnect all the external devices. Reboot. Windows should perform a startup repair.
    till 4. step there was no windows 10 key activeted and problem vas solved
    but after step 7 i checked key and it was not the same which i purchased, why did that change? i activated purchased key again.
    so is the problem to be a windows 10 key on my pc?
    or do some drivers prevent advancedstartup options?
