Hey Roosevelt,

Welcome to the Microsoft community.

This problem occurs if there is file/configuration of the system is missing from the recovery disc. I would like to know some information about the problem of recovery so that we can help you further.

1. What is the number of brand and model of the laptop?

2. What is the exact error message you get?

If you don't have a recovery disc, then I you suggests to create the Installation of Windows 8 media from another computer Windows 8 and then try to perform the checking and automatic repair if it works for you.

See the following article from Microsoft Help to create a multimedia installation.

http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2780338/en-us

Note: see the section "method 2: burn the ISO of Windows 8 file to DVD or using a spare PC USB drive '.

Follow the procedure for repair of Windows 8 DVD autorun:

  1. Insert media such as (DVD or USB key) and press the F12 key and click change default or any other option which is at the bottom of the screen.

  • error winload. EFI won't let me reset or refresh my computer. Help.

    Hi all.

    I did the required Microsoft update a few days ago and it completely crashed my computer.

    After that I did the update required, I reconnected in and got this message when I tried to open any program:

    "the application failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event log or use the command-line sxstrace.exe for more details. »

    Before coming on this forum, I tried to reset, refreshing, recovering recovery integrated on my Toshiba, all to nothing does not. When I try to refresh or reset, I get the error is. When I try to use the recovery media creator, I get

    "the application failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event log or use the command-line sxstrace.exe for more details. »

    So it blocked me because my computer did not come with an installation disc and BestBuy (where I bought it) cannot help me because I don't have the start up disk. I feel like I'm going in circles here and it is absolutely ridiculous that an update did this to my laptop.

    When I tried to download an IOS on a USB and starting it, my computer told me he had nothing to boot from. I'm so lost here what to do without this disc.

    Alas, I have solved my problem.

    I went to:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/create-reset-refresh-media

    I downloaded which using the ISO and then dragged into the USB port (on another laptop). I then plugged than USB into my laptop. I went to the folder and found "setup" and double clicked on it. The first time I ran it, it failed. I sat there thinking why it would fail and I realized that since I have problems with Windows 8.1, I should try running in mode feature of Windows 7.

    I returned Setup folder, right-click right, went to properties, clicked on the "compatibility" tab, is descended in the "compatibility mode" and choose "run this program in compatibility mode for: ' and selected Windows 7. I then clicked 'apply', then 'OK' and I went back and double click on the setup in the folder icon. It worked like a charm. My computer is back to normal.

    * pats self on back *.

    I'll leave this place in the hope that if someone has the same problem, it will be a relief.

    Hello

    You are welcome.

    This happens because your machine comes with 8.1, so will have no specific driver for 8

    When you are on the page displays "no software or drivers are available for this product with the selected operating system." Please make a different selection ", you see an option of editing right - if you do, click this button and select Windows 8.1 because the OS - most of the drivers should work for 8"  As long as you install the LAN or WLAN driver, just go through the updates to Win 8 until the 8.1 update is available, apply it and then install the rest drivers.

    Kind regards

    Hello

    Do a clean install of XP with the XP disk provided by Dell, if you.

    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/OperatingSystems/SS/instxpclean1.htm

    If you do not have your XP disk, you can contact Dell and ask them to send you a XP disc.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the order of startup and startup disk:

    And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall XP back on how you purchased your computer.

    The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

    A Dell must rely on Ctrl + F11 at STARTUP to reinstall XP

  • Windows 7 - > 8 - > 8.1 Upgrade winload.exe missing 0xc0000098 error after upgrade

    Hi all

    I have a Windows 7 Enterprise system that I've successfully upgraded to Windows 8 business. Next step must now go to Enterprise 8.1. The whole idea was to avoid the re-setup and well with Windows 8.
    The problem is that when I switch to Windows 8.1 it installs then boots. During the startup, it stops with an error winload.exe is missing for corruption. Code 0xc0000098. All of the keys in the same message results accept the option to boot another OS (F9 I think). It starts in Windows 8 and said he couldn't install 8.1 and that 8 has been restored. Of course, everything is back like nothing happened.
    If this can help:
    The system is a Dell XPS 15 with the eSATA Intel and an SSD.
    Thank you!

    Hello Vijay,

    Thanks for the reply. I do not end up understanding.

    For the benefit of third parties:

    Curiously, the ISO was corrupted. I say strangely because the ISO could be unpacked and burned on a DVD without errors. On a hunch, that I downloaded the ISO again, extract and it worked very well.

    Thank you

  • ProDesk 600 G2 Mini: A Mini 600 G2 a NVMe M.2 SSD startup ProDesk?

    Hello

    I recently bought a G2 Mini ProDesk of 600 which I am very happy with. However, I can't the computer to start from the m2 NVMe SSD I installed it. There is no problem to use it as a second drive in Windows and also no problem Windows installation on it, but even though I can see it in the BIOS and select to boot from, I get a message "no boot device."

    Is it possible that a new machine that has a port of m2 in height, cannot manage boot from a drive is? HP has no information that I can find on this issue, or can someone help me find it? Anyone know?

    Best regards

    Tommy

    I had a similar problem with the mini HP ProDesk 600 G2 and Plextor PX-G128M6e.

    He helped disable legasy and loading security modes in the BIOS: Advanced-> Security Boot Configuration-> Legasy support turn off and disable secure boot.

    And also disable PCIe power management: Advanced-> Power Management Options-> PCI Express Power management.

    Without disable Windows power management could won't start the SSD with errors:

    "The application or the operating system could not be loaded because a required file is missing or contains errors.
    File: \Windows\system32\winload.efi
    "Error code: 0xc0000185.

    After these settings Windows installs and runs correctly since the SSD drive.

    P.S., Plextor PX-G128M6e is M.2 AHCI PCIe SSD, not NVMe, but can also be useful to someone.
