re-installing Windows 10, error 0xC1900101 - 0x20017: bad drivers?
I had two hard drives installed on my computer and one of them died on me. I couldn't even boot up any longer but I had backed up all my data, so I was not too worried.
Anyway, I had the free Windows 10 install upgrade from Windows 8. I was unable to get my computer to boot up with a USB key so I ended up installing Windows 8 again since I have the CD.
The version I have is a Japanese version which is a major pain as my Japanese is very limited. I'm only including this information in case it is part of the problem.
The install went smoothly and I have it up and running. I downloaded the Media center to upgrade my computer once more and it seemed to go smoothly until the very end. I ended up with an error message:
- 0xC1900101 - 0x20017 I clicked on the link provided which says that:
- I don't have enough disk space
- Or one of my device drivers is bad.
The only thing that I can think of is my WAN key. I have a wireless USB key plugged in to supply internet. It stopped working when I first installed windows 8 and I had to go their homepage and execute a program with installed the proper drivers. So, it works with Windows 8 now.
It's the latest set of drivers, so I don't know if that is actually the problem but it seems to be the only thing that I can think of.
Is there anyway to setup Windows without an internet connection if this is the case?
I'm open to any suggestions.
