Hi,
When your boot process is corrupted, you are given suggestion like using fixmbr, rebuildbcd etc to correct the error. I know that it is startup repair options.
Microsoft also gives the fixmbr and rebuildbcd commands as a workaround this problem . Microsoft says to use the install media or pre installed startup repairs to use those commands.
When we boot via installation media and access the repair the computer and go to command prompt, the directory it shows, is x:\source , which means that we are using the files in the installation media. By evoking these commands, how the boot folder in the reserved drive would get corrected. Please tell.
Sometimes, there may arise situation, when F8 on boot does not lilst Repair this computer. If the option is not there, microsoft says this is because there is no pre installed start up repairs files installed in the system. How could it be . Is it not a windows install process automatically at the time of installation?
So, does it not suggest that if you get the repair option in the advanced boot menu, then you are invoking these commands, or the system gets the command from the windows reserved partition?
So, my query above,
please give a detailed reply
