Windows XP - BSOD 0x0000007B after imaging Harddrive to new PC

Written by

STOP 0x0000007B: Inaccessible Boot Device occurs after you have imaged a harddrive or installed the harddrive in to a new PC with a different configuration.

This is caused by windows  not having the correct 'Boot Level' drivers installed to access the SATA or  the wrong IDE drivers are installed.

This can be fixed by one of the following. work through them in order.

  1. Check in the BIOS for an option to set the onboard SATA to IDE mode
  2. Use IDE merge to reset IDE drivers to default (via ERD 2005)
  3. Use Driver Injection Tool to insert the correct drivers in to the offline windows installtion. BartPE and the TXTSETUP.OEM drivers are also required.

  5. Injecting massstorage drivers with MSSTMake - The CD Forum - Not Tried
