Hello - Just looking for advice after spending many hours on this.
A zbook 17 mobile workstation (initial model D5D93AV) will not boot.
Things tried:
1) BiosHP Recovery - Tries but can't load windows - Get BSOD indicating iastorA.sys after 15 seconds.
2) Boot from a cloned image of the HD C: (windows) - The workstation cannot recognize the USB attached HD.
3) Windows Media Creation - Loaded Win Media Creation for Win 10 on Samsun 64GB usb stick - The error is Page fault in NonPaged area - iaStorAVC.sys is the named driver.
4) Ran all system Test with no errors thru 3 interations for 12 hours: (processor, 15.6GB memory tested, D, wireless, System Brd, Vedio)
I suspect that the 30GB cache SSD may be at fault, but I don't see a way to deactivate it, and I'm not sure if the SSD is physically present. That is, I suspect that 6GB of my 16GM physical memory is somehow partitions as an SSD, possibly through Intel RST technology. Is this possible?
