Inaccessible_boot_device (0x7b) then C:\Windows\System32\LogFiles\Srt\SrtTrail.txt and won't let me start in safe mode.
Hey guys,
My laptop is an Asus Vivo Book Go 14/15. I've been having some random hibernation issues recently, where I am forced to shut down with power button to get anything out of it. Once before this kicked me to bit locker key screen but it was fine after.
Tonight though, it hits a wall on boot, fails to auto repair throwing up INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE (0x7b).
I had a look online and found some troubleshooting, forced Windows MRE and tried some cmd stuff like fixboot (denied), fixmbr (success, but changed nothing) and rebuildbcd (forget why it said back).
This fixed nothing.
Tried running chkdsk on x: and it said no.
Tried running chkdsk on c: and it said partition was in use so wouldn't run it.
So I backed out of cmd and tried to start in safe mode. The triggered another bit locker code. Put the code in, and it then failed to boot again, giving back the same INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE (0x7b) boot failure and kicked me back to the bit locker screen.
Any thoughts on what my next options might be?
Thanks!
ETA: ran a MyAsus in WinRE diagnostics test. My WiFi test failed the TRx Test. Would this be affecting the things previously mentioned at all?
