Default My other PC is just.... wierd

I have reformatted and re-installed windows at least 4 times because I was in no rush to get the computer next to me working optimal. No matter what I do I get this error 0x0000006B "Process1_ Initialization_Failed" And before every time I reformatted I got the 0x000000ED. I do not know what is up and now because in the years I have been on computers I have never come across these errors. I feel I know nothing about that computer anymore. Also, last time I checked that system it was running 110degreesF. Tell me what to do here guys. :confused:

have you tryed nukeing the disk? 110 F isnt that hot.. It is but it isnt... thats around 41 c ( i think) so not bad at all. here is a good program to destroy the hard drive and any bad sectors it has on it.

I will give that a try. It is something I haven't tried yet. I will update soon if there isn't any other suggestions.

WOW. That was just a tremendous waste of time. I do not know what the problem is at this point. It can not be the Hard Drive at this point because I just wiped it clean. Just reformatted after the wipe and the nice UMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME 0x000000ED popped up to continue my nightmares. I just do not get this. This is the most confusing thing that has ever happened to me before.

This is what I have posted elsewhere in hopes of getting a solution more quicky. Is there any 24/7 Tech Support that will not cost me anything available to someone like me.

I have been getting this error. UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME 0x000000ED everytime I start my computer. I can get into safe mode but I just can't seem to get it to go away. I am good with fixing my computer and this is just bad so I reformatted a couple times and each time the same thing. Then I nuked the hard drive just in case there were any bad sectors and reformatted and nothing. I am at a dead end and am at your grace of helping me.

I am trying everything at this point. I have been completely stumped. If it is something easy and I overlooked it I will feel horrible. The one down is my primary gaming computer so I am losing brain cells by the minutes now..not being able to play for a week.
