[SOLVED] Windows 10 Build 1903 - Trying to Update to 22H2

[burner10231]

Hello,

I am willing to update to 22H2 or do a new install onto M.2 drive.

I tried to do a fresh install of Windows 10 22H2 onto a new M.2 NVME SSD, but it displays a black screen with a blinking cursor and ultimately boots to my original boot drive (2.5'' SSD). I've also tried to update it through Windows Update in System Settings and through the executable file Windows10Upgrade9252 from Microsoft website, but after doing the mandatory restart from the execution of it, nothing changes. At this point, I thinking to resort (because might as well to a new M.2) to doing a fresh install through a USB boot drive from the 22H2 Media Creation Tool. In BIOS, it recognizes all drives - M.2, 2.5'' SSD, HDD, and USB - and I have changed the Boot Order 0 to the USB containing Windows 10 fresh install. I've read others had trouble with it being UEFI/Legacy boot, but I've changed that as well and did not affect anything.

Additionally, not sure if this is important but when I normally start my computer, on the boot screen, I get a "Press any key to skip disk checking".
Any help would be appreciated in either direction, preferably re-downloading Windows 10 22H2 onto new M.2
Thanks.

edit - I get Windows error code 0XC1900101 when attempting to update through the Windows Update in System Settings

I also get Windows error code 0x8024000b

friendly bump for help.

This is the more recent Windows error code that I got.

0XC1900101 - 0x20017
Installation failed in the SAFE_OS phase with an error during BOOT operation

 

[burner10231]

Now, 0x80242016 after attempting to run Media Creation Tool to try to update Windows while keeping settings and personal files.
Currently, 0XC1900101 - 0x20017 and the previous error code 0x80242016 mentioned are active.


The Windows error code 0x8024000b was from a few months back from a similar attempt.

Friendly bump.

It appears that user SashD might have had a similar problem to me and the thread is solved without solution..

Hi,

Download and run SetupDiag from Microsoft

• Download
  
  SetupDiag to your desktop.
• Right-click on SetupDiag.exe and select Run as administrator.
• When completed the following files are created: "Logs.zip, SetupDiag.exe.config and SetupDiagResults.log"
• Attach SetupDiagResults.log and Logs.zip to your next reply.

Hello, thanks for the reply.
When I run SetupDiag.exe it opens a CMD terminal for a split second and closes, I am not able to see the output.
I do not see the following files that you are asking about.

Hi,

Please provide the following files if exists.

C:\$Windows.~BT\Sources\Panther\setupact.log
C:\$Windows.~BT\Sources\Panther\setuperr.log

 

[burner10231]

These files exist, but \setupact.log is 168MB. It is too large to upload.

 

[Maxstar]

Please ZIP the other file first, if it's still too large upload it to WeTransfer - Send Large Files & Share Photos Online - Up to 2GB Free and post the downloadlink.

 

[burner10231]

I have compressed/zipped both files using winRAR.

I would suggest to update your BIOS version, the most recent version is F53 and can be downloaded from the link below.

I will have to do this some time later and I will report back when I do.

 

[Maxstar]

That's fine, take your time..

 

[burner10231]

I have not done it yet, but should I update my Chipset driver as well? or is that unnecessary/unrelated at this time?

edit - I mean update the Chipset driver beforehand to updating BIOS. I am currently on [2.07.21.306]

 

[Maxstar]

Hi,

There is no need to update other drivers before updating the BIOS.

Hello, I attempted to update BIOS, but when I entered BIOS, the page after clicking the "Update BIOS" button did not recognize the USB. It said A: Unknown Device which contained Dell, Boot, and Microsoft directories. I could not find the USB that contained the new BIOS file. At which point, I try to return and boot Windows from my SSD. Currently, it is repeating itself and not able to boot properly. By repeating itself, I mean it shows the GIGABYTE load screen where it asks for BIOS, Boot menu, and System Information. then has the "Preparing Automatic Repair" words and not able to boot to Windows.

edit - I am writing from my laptop
