All my Hard drive Partitions have been deleted and i can't boot!

-Short-Story and what i need help in right now.
All my hard drive's partitions are deleted (main harddrive i only have one) and i can't get them back i've tried to use partition wizard bootable but it doesn't show my h.d (it did teh first time but even then when i scanned to get back my lost partitions it didn't recover them) and i can't boot onto my desktop or reinstall windows, when i put in my windows recovery system and cmd:
-diskpart
-list disk
#####
--------
disk 0 FAT32...etc it is only my recovery usb. i can find my h.d in my UEFEI but can't boot because it has no OS. please help me i don't know what to do.

(not really needed but just in case LONGER story)

My PC has been running into some issue i've never got anything like this, the first issue was the "0xc000225" i have tried some possible fixes (startup repair with windows installation media). But later ran into another issue. "reboot and select proper device or insert boot media" which i later googled and tried to change boot priority, default uefi setting. nothing changed and at random times both issues happen every time i boot

After 8 hrs of me leaving my computer, i booted my pc and it worked fine, untill i shut it down later that day and the problems were back, i started to panic and re-installed my windows 10 to hopefully try and fix the problems. after my pc was reset and it was back to normal untill i later rebooted my pc and it happened again. so i tried other sloutions untill another wish granted that got my pc back to normal so i stupidly thought to make my pc install into a win7 OS.

after a successful installation my pc was a factory-new windows 7 OS. i thought maybe the problem was fixed untill a blue screen crash leading to our main problem.

AFTER alot of mess ups by me i ended up deleting my hard drive partitions and can't get them back by partition wizard bootable because my hard drive is not listed there, but i know it's working cause in my ASrock UEFI boot options it says my hard disk it a boot option but i don't think it can because it has no OS or partitions because i cleaned them in startup repair cmd to try to reinstall win7 and fix my problems in desktop.Please help me i know i've messed up alot and only know my problems now... but any support would be helpful :)

...thank you

sorry if i don't make sense..
 
Solution


You put the disc in the tray, and shut it.

Don't you think this is simple a dead hardrive ?
 
Hello... Thinking only gets me in trouble B ) I'm into "Simple Tests" and Starting @step 1 of my procedure... to find what line/step/message we get stuck on. B D
Any Windows install media has "Drive Options" on it, and will report a drive problem from there... choose 'Custom Install" to access the "Drive Options" App... "Windows install media" and "TESTDISK" is all I carry in my Traveling PC tool box for any Drive/install problems.
 
Hello... It took me crashing my first PC to "Get the Book out-learn" How to do all this... and the 'Secret inner-workings" of Windows, DOS, Bootable media, and Portable Tools.
I feel everyone Needs to know how to do this (clean OS install) because in 15-30 mins You can have a clean slate from all your previous wrong OS choices. B )
 
Thank you for all the replay, i'm not sure how i did this but.. after my post i got a windows 10 bootable media and tried to check if my hard disk was visible there. After i "shift + f10" i did...
Diskpart

Select disk 0

List disk

Disk ### Status Size Free Dyn GPT
*Disk 0 Online 456 GB 465 Gb
Disk 1... etc

thanks for your answers but what do i do from here?

thank you..
 
Hello... "Clean Install' means deleting all previous "Partitions" on the HD/SSD ( using the install media )... before install of the OS.

1) Install/Boot from your Windows install media.
2) Type in needed data and complete information screens.
3) "Type of install" screen choose "Custom Install"
4) When HD/SSD/Drive information screen is Displayed click the "Drive options" app below.
5) Highlight a "Partition" and click delete.
6) Repeat till there are NO more "Partitions" visible.
6a) sometimes it takes a few "re-boots" with the install media to get them all.
7) When your drive is "Clean" Start/click the OS "Install" and the Windows "Install button" And the install will start... AND will create the needed "New Partitions" on it.

Thank you for your help thus far...

i've tried what you have told me but sadly i get the error message

Windows setup

Windows cannot be installed to this disk. This computer's hardware may not support booting to this disk.ensure that the disk's controller is enabled in the computer's BIOS menu.

i have tried to check in my UEFEI but everything seems fine

...thank you

I'm having the exact same problem and error messages.
Was following the thread to see the solution but i dont understand how to use the achi.syy driver if my pc can not boot....i'm using a boot usb.

when i type list volumes, the unallocated space is listed but when i type list disk, i only see the usb (assigned c ) and the dvd drive (assigned d)

Did you resolve the issue? What did you do?
