boot\BCD Status: 0xc000000f

I'm having the same problem, exactly, as below. The operating system disk won't run.

 

 

Please help me!  I seem to have this problem as described in this thread however, I can't get the computer to run the windows installation disk as it requests.  I also tried F8 safe mode but it just beeps at me and returns to the Windows Boot Manager screen that tells me to insert the windows installation disc and restart the computer.  File: \boot\BCD  Status: 0xc000000F  Info: an error occurred while attampting to read the boot configuration data.  I unplugged everything but the essentials (keyboard, monitor) but still nothing.  How do I resolve this issue and hopefully (praying) not loose my data?

No clue what thread you are talking about.

It sounds like your hard drive has gone bad. You should be able to recover the data by purchasing a USB enclosure. This would turn the hard drive into an external hard drive.

Hi Pigatti, I am having the same problem.  Can't get off the Windows boot manager screen.  Did you get your computer to work?  I have Vista 64-bit.

I'm having the same issue also on my Inspirion D660. I started with the bootable windows 7 disk I bought from a small tech company. the D660 series is 32 bit and the disk is 64 bit so that didn't work. but now I'm getting these messages: "the file or directory C:\windows\winsxs\msil_system.web.extendions_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.7601.17514_none_3d3f7e36fc4f6ba2\System.Web.Extensions.dll is corrupt and unreadable. Please runthe Chkdsk utility" and the message \assembly\GAC_MSIL\System.Web.Routing\3.5.0.0 is corrupt and the message \Program Files (x86)\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework\v3.5\System.Windows.Presentation.dll is corrupt  and the message C:\Windows\winsxs\x86_microsoft windows security-pku2u_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.16385_none_7e462a69ffcb5639 is corrupt and unreadable. I can't boot in safe mode and the it says that I have no restore point to go back to and I put 5 different restore points on the computer long before my system problem. I can't even do a restore to when I 1st bought the computer, I now get the "Error 1" message box.

and just as PIGATTI wrote my laptop also, needless to say, won't run Windows from the disk. does anyone know of a cost effective solution for this situation? and thank you for taking the time to read my posting
