Hey 

 

I have a Dell Latitude E6230 Running Win8 Pro 64Bit

 

When I boot up I get Invalid partition table and it freezes

The first time I could not do anything. Ran it up with installation usb auto repair did not work. Managed to go to restore point.

The first restore point did not work it was made when installed windows update.

This time I was able to go into F12-> UEFI BOOT -> Windows boot manager 

The second restore point (older one) did work and was told successful. 

When I booted got the same message about the table. Went into the boot sequence ->  Windows boot manager the windows boots all the way up and can log in.

When I shut down or restart I get the same message again.

 

After searching I understand that I should try and fix the MBR

Went into recovery on windows boot usb -> command prompt  enters the following

bootrec /FixMbr
bootrec /FixBoot
bootrec /ScanOs

 

  -> after theese I get success
bootrec /RebuildBcd

after this I get

The required system device cannot be found

Picture

 

 

Doe's anyone have another idea ?

 

Thanks

Run this from inside the windows or boot from usb and run it there?

[FreeBooter]

Boot your computer with Windows Setup DVD/USB flash drive and execute the commands from Command Prompt.

Hey FreeBooter

 

I ran chkdsk and there was an error at the end log event 50

screen shot

 

 

The bcdedit fails also 

"The requested system device cannot be found"

 

 

[FreeBooter]

There was file system corruption which was repaired don't worry about the error at the end of the Chkdsk command output.

Can you tell me which command has failed and giving you that error message.

[vally]

This line fails

 

bcdedit /export C:\BCD_Backup

 

and this is what I get-

 

The store export operation has faild

The requested system device cannot be found

 

 

[FreeBooter]

I'm sorry my mistake, you need to first enter C: and press Enter key. Execute bcdedit /export C:\BCD_Backup  and other commands.

[FreeBooter]

We need to mark System Reserve partition active to do that i need you to execute below commands and please post picture of the commands.

Diskpart

List Disk

Select disk X

List volume

Replace the X with disk number assign to Windows installed disk the "List Disk" command will list all attached disks and disk number assign for the disks.

First of all I want to say thanks to FreeBooter for the help

 

Here is the printout after the commands

[FreeBooter]

Hi Vally,

 

You are very welcome!

Please execute below commands.

Diskpart

List Disk 

Select Disk X

List partition 

Select partition 1

active

exit

bootrec.exe /rebuildbcd

If the commands executed without error then you can test and see if Windows boots after executing above commands.

I typed what you posted but there was a problem.

I think we didn't choose the correct partition - or I may be wront for not totally understanding all the stages

Here is the screen printout
