windows don't start up

<< < (2/2)

Boggin:
I can't read your pics very well but if you can get into the Recovery Environment to select Startup Repair, then select Command Prompt and enter rstrui.exe and that will get you to your restore points, but run a chkdsk /f from there first which may resolve the issue.

Enter bcdedit |find "osdevice" and using the partition letter it gives, use that instead of the x in chkdsk x: /f

From the Recovery Environment Command Prompt, it won't require a reboot to execute.

You need to run the bcdedit cmd as it doesn't always see the volume as in C: in that mode.

For clarity, that's a Pipe symbol before find and is the uppercase of \

If you have access to another Win 7 machine then you can create a System Repair Disk to boot up with which will get you to the Recovery Environment.

I'm not sure about that partition x as to whether that will confuse things.

I've emailed Support  to see if there's an answer as to why your machine wouldn't boot up, but with it being the holidays, I'm not sure when I'll get a reply.

jpm:
The startup repair is actually a windows issue - not the Tweaking Repair program.  Did you run this in safe mode for our repairs? Becuase I suspect there was another underlying issue.

Either way this "should" get you back
