Vista won’t boot because I shut it down improperly
Asked by: Arora 1900 views OS Malfunctions, resolved
I am receiving the following error while trying to boot my Toshiba laptop running Vista:
“Windows has encountered a problem communicating with a device connected to your computer
This error can be caused by unplugging a removable storage device such as an external USB drive while the device is in use, or by faulty hardware such as a hard drive or CD-ROM drive that is failing. Make sure any removable storage is properly connected and then restart your computer.”
I can’t boot in Safe Mode. If I try to access the Recovery Console, it still gives me the error: 0xc00000e9
and a blue-screen error: The registry cannot load the hive (file)…
