Windows 10: Windows won't boot error code 0xc0000098 on clean install, with a new ssd.

My Windows wont boot. I thought it was my hdd that causes the problem. So, i brought a new ssd and did a clean install with a bootable drive, and surprisingly it wont boot. Followed the guide vids on yt, i've done all steps and it said succesful rebuild bcd dll on the terminal. But when i try to boot my laptop, it keeps getting the same error. Note that i tried rebuilding BCD so many times, and all of them were "succesful" but it still wont boot. What should i do to make my laptop works like it used to?

error code: 0xc0000098

Hi,

The the 0xc0000098 error can appear due to a corrupted BCD (Boot Configuration Data) file. This can be due to a change in the hardware. There is also a possibility that Windows files or the hard drive was damaged on some cases. In this case, we suggest to boot
from windows 10 installation disc and kindly follow the steps provided by
Teemo Tang on this

Should you have further concerns, feel free to post.

Regards.

 

Clean Install Workaround for Vista

You may remember this news story on techPowerUp! a couple of days ago relating to the lack of clean installs when using the Upgrade Editions of Vista, which required an old OS to be installed. However, Paul Thurrott has managed to find a workaround for this issue, which ironically lets users do a clean install Vista without any previous version of Windows, albeit a little tedious. Here are the steps:

• Boot from the Windows Vista Upgrade DVD as normal
• When prompted for a product code, leave this blank
• Select the version of Vista you have purchased and let Vista install
• When you boot to your desktop for the first time, run the Vista setup from Windows
• This time enter your product key
• When asked whether you want to do an Upgrade of Custom install, select custom and choose a clean install
• Windows will now install for a second time and you should be able to activate it

Remember, these steps are only advised for use in order to achieve a clean install of Vista, it is only legal to use the upgrade editions if you have previously purchased the appropriate version of Windows.
