Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have an HP Pavilion 17t-ab200 here that was giving 03F0 as the error.  HDD passed both tests, as did memory.  Booting up with a Win10 disc I tried to run Chkdsk as well as FixMBR from Command Prompt (neither command recognized).  When I go to the C:\, the only thing there is an empty Recover.txt file.  It's like the entire C:\ drive was wiped.  The cd-rom was recognized (D:), and when I boot up with the disc, it comes up with things on the X: drive (not clear on what that is). 

 

I then was getting 0xc000000e, and used the media-creation-tool-install tool discussed by Microsoft at https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-performance/error-code-0xc000000e-in-wi....  I ran this from USB on the system, and I can get into Windows, associated the account, set PIN, etc., and spent a few hours with a Chkdsk c: /r but if I restart, I get back to the error 0xc000000e "Your PC/Device needs to be repaired.  A required device isn't connected or can't be accessed."  Does anyone have any tips for this?  I keep hitting this screen no matter what I do.
