A technician is troubleshooting a Windows 10 workstation that displays a Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) with the stop code INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE immediately after the system logo appears during startup. The workstation was recently updated with a new storage controller driver and a firmware update. Which TWO of the following troubleshooting actions should the technician take to resolve this boot issue?
- Boot into Safe Mode and roll back the storage controller driver.Cevap
- Access UEFI/BIOS settings and verify that the SATA configuration mode matches the installed OS configuration (such as AHCI vs. RAID).Cevap
- CExecute bootrec /fixmbr and bootrec /fixboot from the WinRE Command Prompt.
- DRun chkdsk /f /r using a Windows installation media to rebuild the Boot Configuration Data (BCD) store.
Cevap
The correct troubleshooting steps are to boot into Safe Mode to roll back the storage controller driver, and to check UEFI/BIOS settings to verify that the SATA configuration mode matches the installed operating system settings.
The INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE stop code indicates that the Windows kernel lost communication with the boot device during startup. Rolling back a recently updated storage driver in Safe Mode removes corrupt or incompatible driver software. Additionally, verifying that the BIOS/UEFI SATA controller mode matches the OS setup ensures the correct storage stack initialization sequence is used.
