Windows 11 Upgrade 10.0.22000.120 BSOD Process1_Initalization_Failed upon reboot

So I recently switched to the Windows Insider Beta build. And when I go to restart to upgrade to Windows 11 the computer goes into the "Upgrades are applying" screen before it reboots at 100%. When it tries to start back up it goes to a black BSOD with the error PROCESS1_INITIALIZATION_FAILED. Then reboots to a constant black screen until I hold down the power button to turn it off and back on. Which then it reboots to Windows 10. I can attach my Memory dump file if needed.

Error code: 0xc1900101
Note: Works fine when installing it on a hypervisor from Windows 10.

 

I should probably note: I did have a Hyper-Visor VM running Windows 11 prior to installing the update, which had shut down the host computer upon hitting start>power>shutdown. Which I though weird and that I must've seen my screen wrong. But upon booting back up prior to the update and logging in my computer BSODed with a "Service_Start_Exception" stop code. And then restarting it was fine afterwards.

  • this is the best answer I got. I manage to get a call from Microsoft. So the issue is the version 10.0.22000.120 is unstable and is unable to boot because of it. The reccomendation by Microsoft is not to install the new version and still used 10.0.22000.100 for the time being.

    The version is failing to reboot because its corrupted. They will be looking into this and was helpful with the information i was able to give. This will be passed on to the Development team and keep posting on this community as they are watching and understand the frustration. They asked that everyone not to get upset over it and understand the concerns, they thank you all for posting this issue.

    They are sorry to hear about the issues with the insider, and do say that once you sign up to the insider it under to soul dregession.

    It is confirmed by a member of the tech team that it's recommended to buy a new laptop as most new laptops will have CMS and TPM 2.0 Enabled and it very rare for a laptop or desktop not to have these disabled. They say not to run windows 11 on laptops that are 5 years old as they are not optumise for the win11.

    but they would like to say thank you to everyone that has used windows 11 insider and all the feedback send has been really helpful.
