Hi @0xc0430001,
Welcome to the HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.
Thanks for your patience. The error you're seeing, "The operating system couldn't be loaded because Code Integrity failed to initialize. Error code: 0xc0430001", typically indicates a corruption in the boot configuration, driver signature enforcement failure, or malware/rootkit interference. Here's a step-by-step recovery plan to help you fix it:
Step 1: Boot into Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE)
If you can’t access WinRE normally:
- Force shutdown your laptop by holding the power button for 10 seconds.
- Repeat this 3 times—on the 3rd boot, Windows should enter Recovery Mode.
- Select Advanced Options > Troubleshoot.
Step 2: Run Startup Repair
- In Advanced Options, select Startup Repair.
- Let it scan and attempt to fix boot issues.
If this doesn’t work, proceed to the next step.
Step 3: Use Command Prompt to Rebuild Boot Configuration
- In Advanced Options, open Command Prompt.
- Run the following commands one by one: bootrec /fixmbr
bootrec /fixboot
bootrec /scanos
bootrec /rebuildbcd
3. Restart your laptop.
Step 4: Disable Driver Signature Enforcement (Temporary Test)
- In Advanced Options, go to Startup Settings.
- Click Restart, then press 7 or F7 to Disable driver signature enforcement.
- If your system boots, the issue is likely a corrupted or unsigned driver.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
