Device cannot be accessed after a fresh Windows 10 installation.
I performed a fresh installation of Windows 10. After it started, the system displayed an error message: "There is a problem with the computer, it has to reboot. It will do this automatically." I read the translation from Dutch to English, so the wording doesn't match the original alert exactly. I searched online briefly, but most results mentioned a menu option labeled "INACCESIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE" that isn’t present on my machine. I checked the BIOS/UEFI settings and found no unusual configurations. I followed the recommended settings, yet the issue persisted. Here’s a summary of my hardware: Intel i3 550 MSI 7708 motherboard (prebuilt PC), Intel P55 platform, Radeon HD 5670 GPU with 4GB DDR3 RAM at 666MHz.
Assuming you're using a computer now: Download the Microsoft Windows 10 Media creation tool. Install Windows 10 installer on a s>4GB flash drive, plug it into your computer. Follow this guide, noting that Windows 10 differs from version 7. If issues persist, reinstall the installation media. If needed, return to the Windows setup screen and clear partitions or remove any OS files (especially Linux if present). Share this post if it doesn't resolve the problem, as visuals could help clarify the issue.
You'll need to restart your computer and use a USB drive to install a fresh copy of Windows.
