Can't boot to windows 10 after using EasyBCD

[Sakib Ahmed]

First of all, i had windows xp in my pc. I installed windows 7 in it without booting from usb because it usually has some error. so i used the setup in the iso file to install it.Then i installed windows 10 in it.It too went well. But i wanted to install linuxmint in it so i downloaded the iso and came to know that it does not contain any setup like windows. So i thought of EasyBCD, which i used before in windows 7 for simply testing it worked well i mean that it showed to go to windows 7 or easybcd etc. but in windows 10 when i installed the plop, it doesn't show any thing, it directly boot to windows 10. So i opened easybcd and made the plop as default thinking i wont boot to windows again.so when i boot to linuxmint it usually shows "automatically boot in 10 sec" and boots(i tested in my laptop) but it doesn't, it again and again showed that . then i found that it is I/O device error now i can't install linux neither use hirens boot cd to delete the plop nor go to windows 10 to installing it manually. HELP ME!!!!!

Having that many OS' on one pc, I would really recommend using grub, which would manage your collection of OS' much better than Windows boot record.
However, if you just want to fix WBR, then boot you windows repair disc, select windows 10 (not windows 7, windows 10) as the os you want to fix, and open a command prompt. Then type the following commands:
bootrec /RebuildBcd
bootrec /fixMbr
bootrec /fixboot
After that restart your system and windows should boot properly. And if I'm not mistaken windows 7 and xp will both be shown as an option in WBR again, though I'm not completely sure. If you want to try multibooting with Mint again, I would highly recommend using grub, which installs by default with mint, and works with pretty much any and as many OS as you want with no problems.

Thank you sir. But you mistook me. I didnt had three os in one, i installed it by deleting the old os.But now i used dbam to erase my files so that it would delete the plop i had because i didnt have much files in it.Now another problem arises, i cant boot anyway???
can i use my laptop harddrive and use as a os and install any os manually?
will it have any trouble in my laptop?

Install Linux and reformat your hard drive "DURING" installation.

NO sir thats not the problem . i can install it by booting but when i boot any os through usb it wont boot it always says any problem. like when i do with linux it says some "syslinux 4.03 2010-10-22 edd copyright (c) 1994-2010 h. peter anvin et al" kind of even in windows os too.
