Starting up my pc today i got the Recovery bluescreen.
'Your PC/Device needs to be repaired'
'The application or operating system couldn't be loaded because a required file is missing or contains errors.
'File:\WINDOWS\system32\winload.exe'
'Error code: 0xc000000e'
Now prior to this for roughly the last two weeks I have gotten a couple of repairing c: drive screens but it completed and I still booted into windows.
The recovery screen tells me to use Recovery Tools which I downloaded onto a USB and booted to that. The 'Start-up Repair' option gives back 'Start-up Repair couldn't repair your PC'. I also can't find any windows installations using 'bootrec /scanos' in the Command Prompt.
The SSD doesnt appear in my BIOS unlike my two HDDs and I have tried different SATA cables and different headers.
Could the SSD just be dead and would I be able to recover any files from it?
It is a Samsung 850 EVO 250GB
