Error 0xc000014c can't reboot anything
I have tried the following to recover from this problem:
1) Acronis 2016 true image rescue disc
2) Easeustodo v9.2 rescue disc
3) Windows 10 generated rescue disc
4) Windows installation from CD via an widows.iso file
Option 4 tried the hardest to boot with a long period of disc read before failing.
Sorry can’t include a debug log since cant get it to boot
Background (hopefully helpful)
Windows 10 was installed on this laptop in August 2015. Major problems with 100% disc utilization.(see note on 100% disk utilization at bottom)
After 2-3 months of frustration a clean install of Windows 10 solved problem
9 months later July 2016
Windows was up dated to version 10586.494 .
I was suddenly confronted with 100% disc utilization again (not sure how long after update)
I suspected antivirus since it was implicated in the original problem a year ago but never confirmed.
I did a full disc recovery using ACRONIS and brought back 10586.318 all seemed well.
I also changed to Panda antivirus from Avast and all seemed ok for a week or two.
I updated again to 10586.494
I started testing out EASEUSTODO v9.2 backup for a friend. It failed during backup with a system freeze (behaving like the disk utilization problem)
Thereafter continued reboots resulted in disk utilization problem.
I decided to try a recovery and now go back to top of page.
NOTE disk utilization problem results in a system freeze with windows not responding error. Using taskmanager the problem shows high cpu and disk activity, the disk activity quickly rising to 100% with i/o dropping to 0-.1Mb/sec, with low cpu useage.
