Win 11 Version 24H2 Install Failed

I tried to install Win 11 Version 24H2 for the second time, and it failed for a second time. The first BSOD message gave the following info:

Your device ran into a problem and needs to restart.

Stop code: INACCESSIBLE BOOT DEVICE

After a couple of restarts, the update was backed out. I'm back on Windows 11 Pro Version 23H2.

I checked the update history and saw the Install error code - 0xc1900101.

Before I tried the 24H2 update, I did the following:

Unplug unnecessary USB devices

Drivers were updated

No issues in Device Manager

I have 30GB of free space on the drive

Any help would be appreciated,

    Ramesh,

    Thanks for the info. I tried the Windows reset option, and it failed too. I received the same error as the tries with the 24H2 upgrade. I also ran the Windows Memory Diagnostic, and the results showed no issues. I have a program called _MemTest86-Pro, which I'll run over the weekend to double check. Any other tools I should run to check for 0xC0000005 errors?

    BTW...I'm not going to do the clean install until next week, so I get everything ready to reinstall.

    Thanks again,

    Hi.

    1. There are the programs we've not touched so far. They all add drivers. You can consider removing them.

    Core Temp 1.18.1

    Corsair Device Control Service

    Corsair iCUE5 Software

    CPUID CPU-Z 2.15

    Intel® Driver & Support Assistant

    Revo Uninstaller 2.5.8

    Restart Windows.

    Remain in clean boot mode.

    1. Run VSS Doctor to see if it can determine the reason for the VSS error.
    1. Reset the Defender platform and update it again. Here are the commands:
    • "C:\Program Files\Windows Defender\MpCmdRun.exe" -ResetPlatform
    • "C:\Program Files\Windows Defender\MpCmdRun.exe" -SignatureUpdate
    1. Post the latest Farbar logs.

    Ramesh,

    Reset Windows Defender. Requested logs in the shared drive and the link is below:

    Thanks,

    Hi sms1295,

    Please try this fix list, which removes the rest of the third-party drivers. It's more aggressive, and I'd not run it without backing up the registry.

    1. Backup the registry using Acelogix.
    2. Run this fixlist.txt. Share fixlog.txt.

    Note: It removes the Corsair HID drivers and other drivers. I'm not sure if it makes the Kbd/Mouse inoperable. In that case, you can attach a standard keyboard or revert to the previous registry backup via WinRE.

    Ramesh,

    I ran the fix list, which resulted in me losing my internet connection. I used the backup of the registry I just created, and my internet is working again.
