Fix 0xc000000f

Fix: Rebuild the BCD using bootrec.exe

This fix needs your Windows installation disc so you can access bootrec.exe. This is a tool built in Windows RE (Windows Recovery Environment). bootrec is a program that can repair boot configuration data and master boot records.
Boot Configuration Data (or BCD for short), contains boot configurations options and controls how Windows is started.
Here are the steps to accessing the bootrec tool:
  1. Insert your Windows install disc
  2. Restart your computer and boot from the disc
  3. Press any key when the “Press any key to boot from CD or DVD” message appears
  4. Select Repair your computer after you select your language, time and keyboard method preferences
  5. Select your Windows installation drive (which is usually C:\) and click Next
  6. Choose Command Prompt when the System Recovery Options box appears
  7. Type in this command:
    bootrec /rebuildbcd
  8. Press Enter
  9. Wait for the process to wait, remove the disc and restart your computer
