AWS EC2 Instance Unreachable (1/2 Status Check) after reboot and finding Difficulty detecting PV driver details for Console Output

If your facing issue in AWS EC2 Instance unreachable in STATUS CHECK OR
Finding Difficulty detecting PV driver details for Console Output follow below steps:


Below are some steps i would like you to try to fix, but before you do these steps, please make an AMI of the instance without reboot option selected.

Steps:
1. Move affected instance to C3 instance type instead of m1 large or your present instance type.
2. Uninstall AWS PV Driver Version 7.2.0 via Programs and Features and reboot when prompted
3. Download the 7.2.0 AWS PV Driver Installer from: https://s3.amazonaws.com/ec2-windows-drivers/AWS+PV+7.2.0/MicrosoftSigned/Installer/AWSPVDriverPackager.exe
4. Install AWS PV 7.2.0 and reboot when prompted
5. Move instance back to non-c3 type or your original instance type you have selected.

Now you will be able to take RDP of this AWS Instance from your network.

Please let us know if you have any issues with this.
