Error 0xc0000225 Leading Into Another Problem

[mattd2425]

Hello all, i'll have to start from the top for any of this to make sense.

This morning I went to restart my Gigabyte P34 and after 5 minutes of just staying on the restart screen there didn't seem to be any response, so out of frustration I held the power button until it shut off. This is seemingly where all these problems began

Upon powering it up again, it would stay on the statup screen for a couple minutes until redirecting me to the 0xc0000225 error screen. After playing around with my options and rebooting the system in different ways trying different modes of recovery, I eventually got to my desktop.

The only issue I had now is that the system is incredibly slow and freezing every second. I hardly get any mouse movement and I can just barely click on anything. I'm becoming more and more frustrsted trying to find a solution to this

I've tried pretty much every boot recovery option, launched safe mode and still got the same problem, and checked to make sure my drivers are in check. I highly doubt this is a hardware issue, so my next step is to wipe the system and go from there.

Thanks for hearing me out in advanced!

You can try a boot repair using a Windows boot disk.
You should also do a short (and long scan if no errors) using a bootable tool like Seatools for DOS. Any errors means failing drive and it needs to be replaced.
A failing drive will manifest exactly what you describe but hopefully it is just some corruption in Windows and the boot repair fixes it.

I'd also grab a copy of memtest86 and make sure the Ram isn't going wonky.
You can also open a cmd prompt as admin and run sfc \scannow to check the drive for system file errors, which it will correct if found.

Thank you both for your super fast response times! I'll try a boot repair the moment I get home, I think that might do it.
