Error 0xc0000225 while upgrading

[brazuka331]

Operating System
Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit
Trying to upgrade to W10 but it keeps failing at the install part at around 40-60%> it goes into a blue recovery screen with the "Error Code: 0xc0000225" If i keep trying to restart it just comes back. If i pull the CMOS "battery" and wait a little while, it comes works and starts a windows rollback automatically.
Any ideas on how to fix this? i would rather not do a clean install.

Step 2: After installing Windows 10, perform an Automatic Repair.
Perform the Automatic repair:

1. When your computer starts, wait for the manufacturer logo to check the option for boot menu, it will usually be F12.

3. Restart the computer, when the manufacturer's logo is displayed, keep pressing the Boot menu option key to enter the boot menu and change the boot option to CD\DVD ROM.

c) Type BOOTREC /FIXBOOT, and then press ENTER.
