  • How to troubleshoot BSOD Inaccessible Boot Device Error in Windows 10
    Blue Screen of Death errors can be caused by problematic software or by faulty hardware.
    It’s common for all BSoD errors to crash Windows 11 and restart your computer in order to prevent damage.
    Since these types of errors can be rather serious, today we’re going to show you how to fix INACCESSIBLE BOOT DEVICE error.
    Issues addressed in this tutorial:
    inaccessible boot device windows 11
    inaccessible boot device
    inaccessible boot device error
    inaccessible boot device windows 11 SSD
    inaccessible boot device windows 11 Dell
    inaccessible boot device windows 11 Lenovo
    inaccessible boot device windows 11 PC
    PC inaccessible boot device
    HP inaccessible boot device windows 11
    inaccessible boot device windows 11 HP laptop
    INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE errors are often hard to diagnose because many problems could cause them. They usually result in a Blue Screen of Death that doesn't go away until you address the issue.
    It often appears after you've made a recent change to the computer, whether software or hardware. You could also see it during a Windows installation. It usually triggers an automatic reboot and maybe even an automatic repair attempt by Windows.
    The message that precedes the error often looks like this:
    Your PC ran into a problem that it couldn't handle, and now it needs to restart.
    This troubleshooting guide works on Windows 10, windows 11 windows 7, windows 8, OS and desktops, laptops, tables and computers manufactured by the following brands: , Dell, HP, Alienware, MSI, Toshiba, Acer, Lenovo, razer, huawei, dynabook, asus among others.

    Per DicerX: What worked for me was to go in the troubleshoot menu>Startup in safe mode>you log in to Windows, as usual,> restart from there and done! This shit won't work, so don't waste your time.
