Startup BSOD - Critical Process Died - Repair failed
Hey all,
My friends computer is getting this error on boot. He brought it to me back in October with the same error, and after trying a handful of things to repair, restore, etc., I wound up re-installing Windows 10.
It worked fine for a few months, but now it is back at it again.
I booted the machine this afternoon using Hiren's boot cd, an old trick left over from my days as a computer repair guy in the early 2000's (not what I do these days at all). Anyways, I ran a few hard drive scans which seemed to tell me that there is nothing wrong with the hard drive.
I'm reluctant to just reload windows yet again given he further symptoms. I did manage to grab the event logs and check them out from a working computer, but they are not really telling me that much unfortunately.
Any advice greatly appreciated!!
