Hi, so I built my PC a few weeks ago. I have been using it everyday and love it. There were no problems or errors of any sort. One day I go to turn my PC on and I get an error saying : Your PC needs to be repaired. A required device isn't connected or can't be accessed. Error code 0xc000000e. Then I press enter to retry and it finds whatever device it is talking about missing. Then I get a new error after that.Your PC needs to re repaired. The application or operating system couldn't be loaded because a required file is missing or corrupted. \Windows\system32\winload.exe. I have tried to use start up repair, restoring to an older time on my PC, and using the command prompt in the advanced settings. Now the weird part. If I have the Optical drive as my first boot priority, most of the time I can load windows fine but if I have anything else as my first boot priority it get the error messages above. And sometimes it will work and sometimes it won't. I don't understand why. Please help.

It might be because your storage device you saved windows onto is damaged.
Replace the or buy another storage device to download windows onto

Hello, I reisntalled windows and still have the same problem. The only way I can get it to start correctly is to set my boot priority to optical drive and on the boot up it will say "press any key to boot from cd/dvd. I won't push anything and it will load fine. Anything other than that and I get the same problem
