Vista + PGP WDE + BSOD Stop 0x000000ED

[Darsenator]

Hello,

I'm not sure if i've posted this in the correct support/discussion
group. After encryting the entire hard drive after installing latest PGP WDE
Version 9.7 upon the first reboot after entering my pgp authentication
passphrase i receive the following error ?

any ideas on what could be wrong ?

I've tested out the hdd & it is fine as this only happens when i encrypt the
drive with PGP-WDE.

The Stop:0x000000ED is usually associated with a corrupt or otherwise
Unmountable Boot Volume.

Hi Ronnie,

This is the strange part, this has only happened since upgrading to
Vista..it was never an issue with XP...however i do understand that the boot
process between XP/Vista is completely different.

I'm absolutely stumped as to what the solution could be, I've put up post
regarding the issue on the PGP Forum & have had heaps of people reading but
nobody replying with an answer.

Are there any BCD commands that i could run before rebooting the system
?..could it be that Vista does not know how to deal with the encryption set
by PGP ?

...Thanks for taking the time to reply to my posting.

Regards,
Martin.

I'm completely clueless about how the PGP encryption works with the system?
Can you get to a command prompt with the F8 options at boot? If so, you
might try the chkdsk /f command.
