Could be HDD Damage.

The error code: 0xc0000001 indicates that there might be some issues with the booting device or some booting files are corrupted. It might also happen if some problem happens with the boot sector of the computer.

If you have another computer (or HDD), you could check by replacing the HDD and booting off of Linux or something.

I'd double check the SATA connections, etc.

 

Here's a troubleshooting list of sorts, but I don't know if it's applicable in your case.

I would suggest you to un-plug all external devices, except the keyboard and mouse, then try to boot the computer.

g. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the Startup Repair.

Method 3: If automatic repair fails, you may try to repair them using these commands through Command Prompt under Advanced Options. Follow the steps:

a. After you boot your computer using Windows 8 installation media, a black screen appears with gray text Press any key to boot from CD or DVD. Press any key.
b) Select the correct time and Keyboard type.
