Hi there, recent issues have been happening over the past week. The system has become increasingly unstable, experiencing hangs and error messages about a USB device causing problems. I removed all connected USB devices, but sometimes it would start up fine, though tonight it won’t boot into Windows. It keeps showing that message. I tried using the Windows reset option, but it only froze at around 47% and then restarted from a USB installation instead. After reinstalling Windows, the same error code appears—0xc00000e9—and there’s a warning about a missing or corrupted system registry file. It seems the ISO I downloaded might be faulty; I have other older Windows installers available if you need one. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

The issue may relate to a hard drive malfunction.

I replaced the SSD and it's been working well after the reinstall. I'll keep updating the progress.
