In the Windows error recovery process, cannot find an operating system

When the System Recovery Options box asking the OS to repair, nothing is displayed.  Does this mean that I have to restore the machine to its original configuration?  And if that's the case is anyway to recover a part of the HDD before restoring data?

Try this to back up your data before reinstalling:

Data recovery:

1. slave of your hard drive in another computer and read/save your data out there.

2. put your Hard drive in a USB hard drive case, plug it into another computer and read/save from there.

3 Alternatively, use Knoppix Live CD to recover data:

http://www.Knopper.NET/Knoppix/index-en.html

Download/save the file Knoppix Live CD ISO above.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm

Download the Vista software from the link above.

After installing above ISO burning software, right click on the Knoppix ISO file > copy the Image to a CD.

Knoppix is not installed on your PC; use only the resources of your PC, RAM, graphics etc.

Change the boot order in YOUR computer/laptop to the CD/DVD Drive 1st in the boot order.

Plug a Flash Drive/Memory Stick, BOOT with the Live CD, and you should be able to read the hard drive.

When the desktop loads, you will see at least two drive hard icons on the desktop (one for your hard drive) and one for the USB key.

Click on the icons of hard drive to open and to understand which drive is which.

Click the icon for the USB drive and click on "Actions > Change the read/write mode" so you can write to disk (it is read-only by default for security reasons).

Now to find the files you want to back up, just drag and drop them on the USB. When you're done, shut down the system and remove the USB key.

See you soon.

I tried all the other recovery, repair choice but given the result.

    Hello

    Either yourself or a store should remove the HDD and it slave in a system that works to see if the data can be recovered from him. The error message indicates a corrupt installation volume rarely, this can be fixed without deletion and recreation of the volume (and doing so will lose all data currently on the disk). Once the data was retrieved from the Vista installation will have to be redone from scratch.

    Hello

    Looks like something was wrong with the recovery process and now Windows may start t. Maybe something messed with the registry or a few important Windows files, so I think that the only option to get rid of it using the Toshiba recovery disc. It will wipe the entire HARD disk and restore the factory settings, normally it should work.

    Just so enter the Toshiba Recovery disk and follow the instructions on the screen. Windows will be reinstalled, and you get back to factory settings. :)

  • Loop Windows error recovery

    It was worth a shot here. Thanks for trying to help. I'm going to their contract and see what happens.

  • Windows error recovery is completely locked (Vista)

    Earlier today, I wanted to install Windows 7 next to Vista so I decided to partition my system. I used the free version of the Paragon partition system. However, he seemed to be taking muuuuch longer that it should have - on the scale of 3 hours and increasing every second. So, I decided to cancel the partition which caused my whole damaged hard disk. Now, whenever I start, I am taken to the Windows error recovery however, and I can't do ANYTHING. I can't move the arrow keys to try to use an old restore point, and I'm just helpless to see the tick of limitation in time down while trying to boot Windows causing just a reboot loop and go to the same screen.

    I can't get into the BIOS and I can't have mode secured by conventional means. I downloaded a file of recovery and I burned it to a dvd. http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/ I do not know if it will work, but since I can't get into the BIOS I can't put my CD/DVD drive as the first when starting up.

    It seems fitting that I have no options here. In addition, I don't have the installation disc more.

    If you can not get into Bios to change the boot order, an installation disc will not help, will it?

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask if you have a recovery Partition.

    It normally takes F10 or F11 to launch it to the market.

    And try Paragon support because your use of it seems to be what started the problem.

    See you soon.

  • Can't update windows like systems to give me an error that it cannot find a file and he needs me to insert the media.

    Original title: re install windows 8.1.

    I have problems with my computer and want to re install windows 8.0. I had upgraded my computer windows 7 to windows 8 but can't update windows like systems to give me an error that it cannot find a file and he needs me to insert the media.  I insert the windows disc 8, but the system indicates that it is not the correct information.  He is looking for another disc?  I created a recovery usb drive, but that doesn't seem to help.  I feel that I have completely new install windows 8 but I am nervous of course think I mess up something.  given that this computer was originally shipped with windows 7, I have to use the recovery discs I've done initially or is there a way to create new ones with the new windows 8?

    Hello and welcome!

    If you are using a CD to upgrade of Windows 8, then there not all reinstall the files included for a full Windows.

    Your best option is to use the recovery partition on your hard disk or the recovery CD from your PC back to Windows 7. Then Windows 7 SP1 upgrade and get all updates. Then, move to Windows 8 again.
