UX301LAA BSOD error with windows install

[Frank07]

Good Day.

I have got a Zenbook UX301LAA i7 4510U variant, it has 2x 128gb ssd's in raid, when i got it it was already formatted and if i try to install windows 8, 8.1 or 10 from a usb it would just boot into windows setup and when click next on 1st screen it would crash with bsod and every time a new bsod error. one time it went all the way installation and crashed at getting ready at last step of installation, the list of bsod errors as follows, some of them i forgot.

IRQL_NOT_LESS_EQUAL,
ntoskrnl.exe
kernel security check failure
wdf01000.sys error
ntfs. something i dont remember
kmode exception not handaled
page error on not paged area
irql not less or not equal
page dumped because nonzero count or mapcount
bad page state in process
system thread exception not handaled
kernel tread priority floor violation
system service exception win32kfull.sys

Always hangs for a split second or less before bsod. if goes further sometimes then i see some colored pixels here and there on screen which are not there in bios.

so is it hardware or software problem, is there any chance i can get it working, is this ram defect or ssd, i did went few times into cmd from repair this pc option and i did used diskpart and it was able to format and create partitions, also i got it formatted in windows installation,

changing raid/ahci options wont help bsod, both ssd's detected in bios and also formatted few times in same laptop, bios version 211 as asus website says its latest.

looking forward for any possible help, WINDOWS TO GO ALSO ENDS IN BSOD AT STARTUP.

THANKS

Ok that doesnt look like a UEFI BIOS.

So you would use the MBR flash drive. Change the bootdisk in the BIOS to the flash drive save settings. Then boot from it. Get to setup delete all partitions then install windows

Does that recovery screen show an error code?? And when or how did that recovery screen come up?? it shouldnt

If you used rufus to make a bootable flash drive if the bios is UEFI, did you select GPT partition?

If it doesnt you select MBR

I did noticed the disks both are dynamic disks, is that a problem,? how to convert to basic since i cannot go into diskpart?

It has 2x ssd, do you think it has something to do with its RAID configuration, do i need to setup disks before hand. i booted it with mini XP. see images for disks, i dont know what else to do.

Hi. I did that while booted with hiren cd then minixp and diskpart. Now the setup crashes at 98% with error pfn list and ntfs error.

I just can not boot into aptio disk utility where the raid must be setup.

Thanks

Ctrl+i option for irst or aptio disk setup utility dont respond. It opened just one time and i saw disk 0 was raid and disk 1 was ahci. But shutdowned due to low on battery and since then wont open. But that time it opened with ctrl f2 or somthing or just like that.

 

[Frank07]

It has a hardware raid setup which must be setup in aptio disk setup utility. Otherwise it wont work with irst driver as hardware is not assinged in irst bios.

You'll have to ask ASUS why it wont work

 

[Frank07]

Sent to asus for repair, Turned out to be a faulty motherboard, both ssds are working fine, Repair cost does not worth it, sold for parts on ebay for 250 euro.

Thanks alot for all of your suggestions,
