Windows 8, "File: \BCD Error Code: 0xc0000034"
Good Day Everyone,
Trying to resolve this error:
I have a Window 8 recovery USB and a Windows 8.1 recovery USB both from another laptop...
Mine are 32 bit machines, if the laptop i am working on is 64 bit will it boot on my USB recovery that is from a 32 bit machine? My buddy doesn't know if this troubled laptop is 32 or 64 bit
When I use the recovery usb and try a refresh or a comlete format it comes back telling me the drive is locked and stops in its tracks.
Also from a the dos command window (from the recover usb advanced option section) i have tried the following with NO success...
Bootrec /fixmbr - successful but didn't help
Bootrec Fixboot - successful but didn't help
Bootrec - RebuildBCD - Goes off searching, comes back with 1> C:windows, I type Y to add it but it comes back with an error "The requested system device can not be found"
I also tried BCDboot c:\windows\ /s c: /l en-us - said it was successful but still didnt fix the boot problem.
So i am not sure if I am running into a 32 bit vs 64 bit issue or if i need to find a way to unlock my drive so the refresh will work?? Or...?????
Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated!!
This is on an Acer Aspire V3-551
