Windows 8.1 Error 0xC1900101 – 0x40017

I have an HP Envy DV7 7200 quad series notebook and have been trying to upgrade to Win 8.1.  I keep encountering an error (0xC1900101 – 0x40017) as the upgrade is finalizing PC settings.  Ultimately I get a BSOD and the OS reverts back to Win 8.  Multiple forums indicate driver issues, and some refer specifically to video adapter drivers or USB drivers.  I've attempted the update with absolutely no peripherals attached to no resolve.
Anyone seeing this issue, and if so, know of the solution?

Hi,
I would suggest to follow the link to see if your unit has been tested by HP with Windows 8.1.
http://www8.hp.com/us/en/ad/windows-8/upgrade.html
If it has come with Windows 8 preinstalled then, your unit should be able to get the update without any issues.
You can follow the steps mentioned in the link below to update your PC with Windows 8.1

Thanks for the links.  Obviously I'll be waiting for an "official" 8.1 update for my laptop.
I have to say though...it's fascinating how a laptop that is less than a year old, and came factory built with Win 8, can't (yet) be updated to Win 8.1...

  • Windows 8.1 upgrade error 0xC1900101​-0x40017

    Hi
    I purchased a Lenovo Thinkpad X220 Tablet model 4294-CTO directly from you.  It came with a factory installed F5521gw Mobile Broadband option. The only change I have made to it is to install and additional 4GB of compatible memory shortly after i purchased it. Last year It was upgraded to windows 8 pro and I have installed all updates using your system upgrade 5 program and have installed all windows important and optional updates. I have also installed all your applicable Windows 8.1 drivers. 
    When I attempt to upgrage it to windows 8.1 using the windows store it fails on the first boot after installing the update with  the  error 0xC1900101-0x40017 and restores Windows 8.
    I have done all the troubleshooting I can think of, including disabling all drivers not needed and all startup programs.
    I have attemped the upgrade at least 15 times, including downloading the update a second time.
    Can you please help me to complete this upgrade.
    I you require any further information please contact me.

    Frank,
    Based on the compatibility list on our support site here, Lenovo is not supporting X220 on Windows 8.1
    http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/research/hints-or-​tips/detail.page?DocID=HT079684
    If you plug that error code into the microsoft support site, there are a lot of hits on their forums.
    Here is the search page I used and I just plugged in your error code http://support.microsoft.com/search/
    Here is one thread that may be helpful:
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/w​indows8_1-windows_install/couldnt-update-to-window​...
    The explaination there suggests that one needs to run all Windows 8 updates before doing the 8.1 install, but you indicate you have already done this.    You might check some of the other threads in that search result to see if there are more potential clues.   
    Hopefully, other X220 users here will add on with their experience and feedback.

  • Windows 8.1 update error 0xc1900101 - 0x40017, Solved?

    I got this error 0xc1900101 - 0x40017 when i try to update to windows 8.1.
    so i tried updating my drivers, uninstalling, updating, re installing the old version of drivers that came with this laptop and updating and still didn't work.
    i thought it might be the some application on this computer that's causing this problem. and i thought avast was causing this problem, because it was not compatible with windows 8 when it came out, and it has kernal driver.
    so i uninstalled it and tried to install windows 8.1 update, and guess what? it worked. 
    but why didn't the windows 8.1 update assistant didn't warn me about this?
    didn't it know about this? 
    the update assistant said my bluetooth is out of date even though i updated it with the link update manager gave.
    it just kept saying update it available even thou i installed it and rebooted my computer.
    EVERYONE IS UNIQUE

  • HP ENVY dv6-7323cl Notebook PC Windows 10 install error (0xC1900101 - 0x20017)

    The full error is: "The installation failed in the SAFE_OS phase with an error during BOOT operation. (0xC1900101 - 0x20017)" Curious if anyone was able to get their Envy dv6 upgraded from Win8.1 I have literally tried over 10 sulutions found on the web -  Most of the solutions seem to come down to manufacturers updating BIOS.  I know there was an update for the BIOS of this machine on 10/31/14 for ver. F25 and it has been installed, but if anyone has any ideas for this particular machine that has worked  - Please share Thanks    Edit*  Things I have tried - Clean boot - Uninstalling AV - ISO from USB for Win10 - Windows Update to Win10 - Disabling Video,Sound, Biometrics -     I am sure I am leaving a few out, but this gives an idea..

    Hello
    I was unable to find the drivers searching with your product and model number as well.
    I was able to keep searching and found this link and it was under our business site support. This is the drivers for your unit series and you should be able to download the fingerprint reader drivers from the link.
    Let me know if this helps.

     But my BIOS version is L73 Ver 01.11 which is newer then ver 01.05.
     Do I need to change to the older version to be able to up grade the windows 8.0 to windows 8.1?
    Will it affect the performance of the computer system?

  • Upgrade to Windows 8.1 keeps failing - error 0xC1900101

    I can't seem to update to windows 8.1 it gives me this error after logging in again:
    "Couldn't update to Windows 8.1
    Sorry, we couldn't complete the update to Windows 8.1. We've restored your previous version of Windows to this PC.
    0xC1900101 - 0x40017"
    The funny thing is that a few weeks ago I already updated to windows 8.1 but because of a faulty driver and not being able to boot into safe mode I had to renew my windows and downgrade to windows 8.0. But now I can't seem to update to windows 8.1 anymore. I installed all the windows updates even the optional ones. So I did a factory reset and uninstalled everything that didn't seemed necessary for windows so the update would go smoother. I found a toshiba page with a tutorial to how to update to 8.1 and it told me to uninstall the following:
    Genesys Logic
    Intel PROSet
    Intel Wireless Display
    Realtek-audio driver
    TOSHIBA PC Health Monitor
    Realtek WLAN driver
    Realtek Bluetooth Filter driver
    and on another page it told me to uninstall anything related with toshiba so I did all that and these are programs I currently have:
    http://oi58.tinypic.com/2ak028l.png
    I also tried with a clean boot but still no change. My graphics driver atm is version 8.9 while the most recent released version is 13.12 but toshiba only release update 12.1 for windows 8.1 and I did try installing that but it just got me into a endless boot loop.
    My laptop:
    Toshiba Satellite C855-255
    PSCBYE-05000NDU
    Could you guys please help me? I'm not sure what I am doing wrong.

  • Windows Blue Screen Error Message Appears As Soon As IPod Connected

    Everytime I connect my IPod to my computer, I get the Windows Blue Screen error message. Thought it was the cable, so plugged cable in by itself. No problem. Uninstalled IPod and ITunes software and then plugged in IPod, still got the Blue Screen. The Blue Screen says something about "recent plugged in device problem". It is not the cable, it must be the IPod. Did not have this problem when I bought it. Tried it on labtop and get the same error message. I can't do updater or anything that requires me to plug the IPod into a computer because the Blue Screen appears immediately. When I unplug, the Blue Screen remains and locks up the computer so I have to restart each time. I have tried everything I can think of. Please help.

    Hi Mike thank you for replying,
    I am not able to start the computer in safe mode, safe mode with networking, last good known configuration etc, Each time it quickly blue screens and restarts about two secs into the process.
    I was unable to try a clean OS install from the disk as it gave the blue screen error shown in the original post. The same thing happened when I tried to use the repair option on the XP home disc. So i can't get into the computer at all to start diagnosing the fault, the only clue I have is the error message, and after searching the internet I haven't found much enlightenment from that yet.
    If you can help me out or suggest where to search it would be much appreciated.
    Thx

  • Windows prompting send error report or dont send

    when am using labview application windows prompting send error report or dont send can some one help in this..I did all re installation and windows update but no use..

    You will need to provide more details as we cannot see your computer screen. Does this happen every time you launch LabVIEW? What version of LabVIEW are you using? What version of Windows? Does LabVIEW crash? If so, what were you doing at the time it crashed?

  • When I connect my iTouch to my PC (windows 7) an error message is displayed reading "iTunes was unable to load dataclass information from sync services. Reconnect or try again later".

    When I connect my iTouch to my PC (windows 7) an error message is displayed reading "iTunes was unable to load dataclass information from sync services. Reconnect or try again later". I have completely uninstalled and then reinstalled iTunes. I have also completely reset my iTouch to factory defaults. I have even followed all the advice provided previously to other forum member with the same problem. Nothing seems to work. Please help me someone.

    I'm getting the same problem with both my IPad 4 and iPhone 5
    Just started a few weeks back, Since then I have had two Itunes updates.
    Is this something Apple is aware of and trying to fix?

  • Windows-No Disk Error Mess

    I get the following error message upon start-up or reboot for Audigy SE:?Windows-No Disk?c0000003 Parameters 75b6bf9c 4 75b6bf9c 75b6bf9c.... I have the option to Continue-Cancel-Retry??The sound card seems to work otherwise, but this error is annoying and I would like to resolve it. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the install CD as this is a new install, but the error persists. Can someone suggest a Fix-It?Thanx!?Lawrence

    I have found the Windows No Disk error message to be caused by having a card reader installed in your system in some cases. If you change the dri've letters of the readers from i.e. F: and G: to for example O: and P: (as I did on my machine) the error message will stop. Worth a try.......worked for me. Hope you find this reply useful, unlike the previous wise a$$ replies.

  • Windows - No Disk Error - Please help!

    Windows - No Disk Error - Please help!
    Hi,
    I have the following set up:
    * Lenovo T-61p
    * Windows XP Pro, SP 3
    * HP Photosmart 8250 printer (with nothing plugged into the various card readers, and USB slot in the printer)
    I am getting the following error:
    Windows - No Disk
    Exception Processing Message 0xc0000013 Parameters 0x75CE023C
    0x84C40C84 0x75CE023C
    I have done a lof experimenting and thru process of  elimination, and believe I have determined that this only happens when the HP Photosmart 8250 printer is plugged in to the USB slot of the computer.
    I can stop it from happening by safely removing hardware, and removing the drive that the 8250 creates on your computer when you plug it in.  In my case, this is drive E.  I'm guessing if there was something in the the various card readers, and USB slot in the printer, that's what those would be, but I don't those use those functions of the printer.
    I understand there is more at work than simply the printer, because I did not used to get this error, so some software changed as well, that is scanning all ports, and finding a drive that has no disk, and producing the error.
    A simple google search finds a lot people all over the world having this problem, and are solving it in different ways, because the suspected source is different: Norton, HP, etc.
    I have tried everything I have read, and the only thing that works was my own idea, of manually safely removing the drive the printer creates each time I plug in the printer.
    Anyone every any better, more permanent solutions?  Or know what the real root of the problem is?  What is scanning all the drives and being showing an error message because it found an empty drive?
    Thanks and Happy Holidays/New Year!

    I've been getting the same error on my 4G nano for the past week. I've had my nano for about a month and the first few weeks were fine. Tried it on 2 different computers (Vista and XP) and same problem. Tried it on a 3rd (XP) and it started ok. Problem started coming back after a day.
    I was able to find a quick fix though. I noticed that sometimes the message says something like "iexplore.exe... no disk..." even if I don't even use IE. What I do is end iexplore.exe on task manager before running iTunes and syncing my nano. I don't get the error whenever I do this, but one drawback is that the contents of my nano suddenly pops up in a window - even when disk use is not enabled.
    I've reset/restored my nano dozens and dozens of times to make sure it's clean. Leads me to believe it's a driver issue. Either that or I have a friggin malware problem I can't seem to find.
    I'll be posting updates every now and then. I'm no expert so I'm hoping an Apple expert also steps in to give some input.
