Yeah, You could also try temporarily disconnecting any extra drives besides your main Windows drive, since that can sometimes cause boot conflicts.

+1 Another option is to run the startup repair tool from your Windows installation USB, which can often fix these boot errors automatically. Hope that helps.

This happened to me. I got that exact error and had to go into the BIOS to switch my drive from RAID to AHCI mode to get it to boot.

You could also try booting into safe mode and running a startup repair from there. Another option is checking if a recent driver update is causing the conflict.

This. I had the same problem. For me, it was a conflict with an old SSD driver that I had to update from safe mode. Let me know if that works.

Yeah, that driver fix is usually the key. A quick BIOS update can also help if it's still being stubborn.

I had the same problem. For me, it was a driver conflict with an old SSD controller that the upgrade didn’t handle right.
