Error 0xc000021a on boot

Hello. I build my personal WinPE10PE in normal mode (without wim file) and copy it in a partition of my hard disk (without iso, i want to make a PE recovery partition).
The problem is that it only boot the first time, from the second it gives me a blue screen with the error 0xc000021a and doesn´t work.....
If i build the same project in wim file, i don´t have problems, but I prefer to modify the files from the hard disk so that it saves changes that I make.

Any solution please? 

Interesting.

Normal Mode not popular for 10 years and more (and I do not use since 14 years or more),
 and these days more posts related to that ...
  Btw, With Passing years no more "Normal Mode" on New Projects anymore. 

Good to hear Win10PESE boots first time after you copy to usb ... at least this shows build-related things done correctly.
(From your reply I am sure Win10PESE boots fine all the time with .iso boot)

So "after build" end-user in a way copy to USB (without wim) there is a problem from end-user side.

If you figure out the reason behind, let us know, all projects evolve with feedback. 

Only an idea to try:
 build Win10PESE with wim (In-RAM) and extract wim to your usb along with other files

 maybe this helps ?

 

OK, good idea.....i will probe....

Thank you 

I´ve something to say about it! 


I´m an OLD Winbuilder user.  Being an IT guy, about 2010-2012 i actively dealed with some XP flavor (LiveXPE?), in those Hiren´s boot CD days of glory...

Infinite THANKS to all people involved in this proyect, now and then.  It was so nice to read again "Lancelot", "Nino Brito", "Paraglider" and so many other.


TIME HAS PASSED.  Now, am fat and a little rusty, but trying to get in shape again, because I need to renew my old tools (that served me so well all this years).


If memory don´t failed me, there was a little work arround to successfully boot LiveXPE.

Some microsoft system component had to be taken from another windows distro... and replaced for final ISO.

His name... NTDETECT.COM? SETUPLDR.BIN?

Here, "Wonko the Sane" explains the matter... (another nice name)

ht tp://web.arc hive.org/web/20130716041115/ht tp://reb oot.pro/topic/11579-full-windows-xp-on-usb-key/

The "normal" boot of a device partitioned and formatted under an NT based system is:
Standard 2K/XP MBR->bootsector of active partition invoking NTLDR->NTLDR->BOOT.INI->NTDETECT.COM->"real" NT based system
What "traditional" PE based builds do is:
Standard 2K/XP MBR->bootsector of active partition invoking NTLDR->SETUPLDR.BIN remnamed as NTLDR->(WINNT.SIF)->NTDETECT.COM->PE based system (normally in \I386\ in CD and in \minint\ on writable media)

What you get through grub4dos is EITHER:
grldr.mbr installed in the MBR->grldr->menu.lst->WHATEVER, i.e chainload EITHER of NTLDR or SETUPLDR.BIN without renaming ANYTHING
OR:
Standard 2K/XP MBR->bootsector of active partition invoking NTLDR->NTLDR->BOOT.INI->grldr->menu.lst->WHATEVER, i.e chainload EITHER of NTLDR or SETUPLDR.BIN without renaming ANYTHING

Piyuyi, I share same problem.

I have all my IT tools (mostly ISO images) in a EASY2BOOT configuration, and so far it goes very well.

Now, looking for a win10pese container for PARAGON PHDM15, and other apps (working in a plugin).

My goal (and my concern) is to get MINIMAL RAM USAGE, nevertheless integrating a (big) wifi driverpack from SDI

If I go build model ->IN RAM boot.wim... 1gb X:\boot + ramdrive.  **Above 1 GB**

If I go build model -> normal... It won´t boot.  Nor E2B, CD boot, etc.


- Any idea how to get rid of BOOT.WIN and make a working old skool live CD start?

- If not... driver folder can be moved from BOOT.WIN to CD? (boot.wim\windows\system32\driverstore\filerepository


THANKS IN ADVANCE!

Hi guys,

I think you need to disable signature enforcement to fix this on a flat installation. Your windows boot the first time and probably installs a unsigned driver. then when you reboot the drivers is blocked.

Try

Code: [Select]

bcdedit /set testsigning on

on your PE installation

Malik, thanks for your support.

I have another problem. In my case, trying to boot a ISO imagen with no boot.wim (normal Mode).

But, your advise can be useful.  I'll check that config!

Welcome justgonnalurkabit,

 


Many things changed .... Life is easier with Win10 compared to XP days. These days most know only Win10 and many do not even know things related ....
 NTDETECT.COM SETUPLDR.BIN things from old days not required with Win10.
  to have some nostalgia or use check http://gena.cwcodes.net/Compressed/

Reminding: You can very easily (unlike xp days) create Portable Win10 on a usb.  Google "create portable windows 10" which is even much easier to use.

See You around.

** An ancient God comes to speak with a simple mortal !!  **

Thanks for your advice, and for all of the good work.  I know you are right, in every word.

Nothing more fast and compatible than a well cooked win10pese or win10xpe for daily IT support (in fact, still getting an impression of both, but i think win10pese is more versatile and able to boot from easy2boot; could´n find a -practical- way to start win10xpe from there)

Once finished all experiments, and with your permission, I would like to open a thread to share my experiencies booting from easy2boot.

Thanks again.

Thanks for the nice words justgonnalurkabit,

I maintain Win10PESE and other SE only with feedbacks,
 like HeyJoe recent feedbacks that leads updating Audio Plugin http://theoven.org/index.php?topic=3325.0
  and like APT feedback to update GetWaikTools ...

If I get feedback about missing files for builds after 1809, I will also add them to Win10PESE. 

+
When I find time, I spend with Azin
 It would be nice for me to follow your easy2boot thread and test with Azin.
ps: Your plugins with Win10PESE continue work with Azin 

You will notice I am only around from time to time. (after 6 months etc.)
 This time I came around to update GetWaikTools Plugin (which causes new user failure) and Bonus HeyJoe Audio Plugin updates (Thanks to HeyJoe), I will update zip packages soon and back to my real life things, so I will be away for some more months.

Feel free to open a thread to share your experiences booting Win10PESE from easy2boot. 
Reminding "how to geek" style topics is best for new users. Eg. https://www.howtogeek.com/406118/how-and-why-to-run-portable-versions-of-windows/

Have fun.

I´ve stepped on GetWaikTools Plugin problem.  Green down arrow, I fixed it with forum help!


Thanks for your advice (WTG portable windows, Rufus approach).  In fact, I´ve playing a little with that, in a different way.

Easy2boot (nothing but an grub4dos boot manager on steroids) has an option for allowing that, with a VERY CLEVER TRICK.  After windows deployement to a NTFS mounted unit, preinstall environment is "encapsulated" in a big preallocated *.imgPART file.  It contains even a FAT32 primary partition for allowing UEFI BOOT, if I´m not wrong.

When E2B starts, on his usual way: PBR 1st stage> GRUB> E2B menu.lst, if user choose to launch an *.imgPART file that´s what E2B does;

1) Saves himself´s actual boot drive MBR to a backup file (E2B can only BIOS MBR boot -by now-)
2) Rewrites, and points MBR entries to *.imgPART first and final sectors, as if they were primary partitions (both FAT32 and NTFS). In other words, it dinamically converts a -moving- big file in 2 fixed drive partitions.  Clever.
3) Asks for reeboot, and then *.imgPART file partitions are exposed to boot from (WTG UEFI and MBR ready)
4) At will, user can return to previous E2B MBR menu back, with a little binary app, or from E2B UEFI menu.  All, with a 512 bytes sector writing.  Can´t stop saying it again. CLEVER.

That way, in a single USB key, you can have more than a single WTG distro.  Windows installers, live linux, UEFI servicing tools... IT resources centralized hub (I love it)


Anyway, NOTHING is perfect.

I´ve found Windows WTG chunky, heavy, prone to misconfiguration.  Deadly slow in older machines.  And with time and multiple boots in different platforms, drivers problems start to arise, and some day, it won´t boot anymore.  Not reliable for what i need it.

And don´t forget USB memory wear.  NTFS with his journaling file system writes all the time, that way cheapo units will die more soon than later.

THAT´S WHY WE NEED WIN10PESE    lightway single ISO, not writable file system, can burn, share, send, download from cloud, E2B poor man IODD drive like.  Best IT snikernetting guy companion, as well as BEST remote option when miles away interacting with user.  DONT LET DIE THIS CUTTIE.


Thanks again!  Hope we read you soon over there!

You are the first one who reports such things.

Oppositely new users create an account and ask questions

Hi Everyone, especialy Lancelot

You are the first one who reports such things.

A friend of mine tries to register to theoven.org but can't get verification e-mail. When he clicks on "Did you miss your activation email?", and gives his mail, the site says that
"Your account has already been activated." So he can't register to the site, any solution?
And I also tested, tried to register just like a new one and after 4 weeks, I still wait for a confirmation mail.
Anyone can test it.
Regards.

Hi justgonnalurkabit, sharp

I test and put a reply to Forum topic :
http://theoven.org/index.php?topic=2991.msg40381#msg40381

I hope Galapo can find time to fix.

As written on other topic,
I could not test e-mail verification since I could not answer "What is the fifth word in this sentence:"
If there is a way to answer, let me know. (better on other topic)

"Word"
