My pc is a Chillblast Fusion Whisper about 3 years old. It runs W7 Home Premium 64 bit. 8Gb RAM. Intel i7 2600K Processor Overclocked to up to 4.3 Ghz. Asus P8Z68-V-LE Motherboard. Gainward GeForce GTX 560Ti 1024Mb Phantom Edition. SSD Caching Configuration. 40Gb Corsair Force Solid State Drive.

 My Knowledge of computers is not great. I was persuaded to buy this spec by a family friend, pc expert who has since left the country and is un-contactable. I was encouraged to buy this machine because the SSD and Intel SMART Response SSD caching configuration were offered free.

 

 Two weeks ago I switched on my machine as usual. I had not introduced any new hardware or software. The screen showed the Chillblast logo and then displayed a message "MISSING OPERATING SYSTEM". I ran the W7 Home Premium instalation disk and chose repair rather than install. It detected problems with my computer's start up. I chose to have it restore a W7 Backup from an external hard drive. It seemed to be working but nothing changed. I also had an Easus ToDo backup and tried to restore from that. It recognised the backup and seemed to be restoring the system but nothing changed. I repeated this endless times with the same result.

 

 I have read all I can find about "missing operating system". I have tried a few simple things like chkdsk /f/r but I do not have the confidence to try anything that might make more changes.

 

 I am preparing this on an old XP machine one of my daughters has brought to my home as I cannot do much with my Chillblast machine.

 

 Initially I thought it was the SSD, as I had had problems with it while under guarantee.

I then read that UBCD was the solution. I did manage a UBCD.iso, checking MD5 and SHA1 were correct, which was all new to me, but it did nothing.

 

 I then decided to take out the SSD. Nothing much changed.

 

 I’ve been going round in circles for a fortnight and today, with the SSD out, I begin to think the HDD is failing.

Now, as soon as the manufacturer’s logo disappears the screen shows:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“WINDOWS BOOT MANAGER

"Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause, To fix the problem.

1. Insert the windows installation disk and restart the computer.

2. Choose your language settings and click next

3. Click “Repair your computer”

 

Status 0xc000000e

 

Info: Boot selection failed as a required device is inaccessible.”

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So, I inserted the windows installation disk and followed the instructions (This is what has happened many times before). Windows loaded some files and then asks me to choose language etc. I then get the option to install of repair. I chose repair and the following message was shown.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYSTEM RECOVERY OPTIONS

Repair details

“The following startup option will be repaired.

Name; Windows Boot Manager.

Identifier:{9DEA862C-5CDD-4E70-ACCI-F32B344D4795

 

The following options will be added.

Name: Windows Recovery Environment (recovered)

Path: Recovery\920cd866-acac-11e0-903a-a9cc99f57c8c\Winre.wim

Windows Device: Partition = dL953767MB)

 A copy of the current boot configuration data will be saved as c:\Boot\BCD. Backup.001

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I choose ‘repair and restart’. I am asked to choose the OS. I hit ‘enter’ on Windows 7 and then we are back to square 1 with the same WINDOWS BOOT MANAGER screen as above.

 I have repeated this process a number of times – same result every time.

I can choose another option to restore a backup. But the result is the same here as well. Computer spends about 40 minutes and tells me it is restoring disk c; and then it tells me:

 “Boot selection failed as a required device is inaccessible.”

 Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause, To fix the problem. Etc. Etc. Etc.

 I can get to the command prompt via the installation disk and I can see directories like Windows, MsOffice etc but cannot do much with them.

 

Any help much appreciated. Thank you.

Gday.

Have you reinstalled the SSD?

[digga]

Thank you JSntgRvr. I could not get to command prompt in the way you described. F8 did not lead me to Advanced Boot Options>Repair your computer. But I knew I could get to the command prompt via the W7 installation disk which produces the Startup Repair Options you told me to find. I hope that has produced the same result.

[JSntgRvr]

Are you able to boot now? Any error message when attempting to boot in Normal Mode?

[digga]

Sorry. I thought there were more steps to go, so I did not even try, as I did not wish to mess things up.

 

Anyway, nothing much has changed. I still get the Boot Manager Screen and the Error Reporting screen and "Boot selection failed as a required device is inaccessible". I did try to start Windows normally with the usual (now) results.

 

Thanks

[JSntgRvr]

The OS partition somehow was change from 07 (NTFS) to 06 (DOS, FAT). That was what we fixed above.

Is the boot order the correct one in the BIOS?

Lets see if we can read the OS partition.

Please download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to a flash drive.

Note: You need to run the version compatible with your system. If you are not sure which version applies to your system download both of them and try to run them. Only one of them will run on your system, that will be the right version.

Plug the flash drive into the infected PC.

• If you are using Windows 8 consult How to use the Windows 8 System Recovery Environment Command Prompt to enter System Recovery Command prompt.
  
  If you are using Vista or Windows 7 enter System Recovery Options.
  
  To enter System Recovery Options from the Advanced Boot Options:
• Restart the computer.
• As soon as the BIOS is loaded begin tapping the F8 key until Advanced Boot Options appears.
• Use the arrow keys to select the Repair your computer menu item.
• Select US as the keyboard language settings, and then click Next.
• Select the operating system you want to repair, and then click Next.
• Select your user account an click Next.
• Note: In case you can not enter System Recovery Options by using F8 method, you can use Windows installation disc, or make a repair disc. Any Windows installation disc or a repair disc made on another computer can be used.
  To make a repair disk on Windows 7 consult: http://www.sevenforu...isc-create.html
  
  
  To enter System Recovery Options by using Windows installation disc:
• Insert the installation disc.
• Restart your computer.
• If prompted, press any key to start Windows from the installation disc. If your computer is not configured to start from a CD or DVD, check your BIOS settings.
• Click Repair your computer.
• Select US as the keyboard language settings, and then click Next.
• Select the operating system you want to repair, and then click Next.
• Select your user account and click Next.
• On the System Recovery Options menu you will get the following options:
• Startup Repair
• System Restore

When I applied the fix yesterday, I definitely thought something had changed. For example I was offered a menu including safe mode, safe mode with command prompt etc. Because I did not think it was completed and I did not want to mess up, I did not touch anything.

So today, I decided to repeat what I did before. Listparts64 scan, fix and Listparts64 scan  - just in case it is helpful to see why the machine has gone back to its previous state. I have also done frst64 and set out boot sequence.

Apologies for hitting you with this lot.

 

Thank you.

Boot the computer to the Recovery's Command prompt.

At the prompt type the following and press Enter:

I don't know if you can read the CHKDSKinfo or not. Trying to attach files.

 

Hope that's done it.
