Hi gang,
I've been pulling my hair out trying to get my PC to boot up. After installing some windows update, I suddenly get the black screen/blinking cursor of death. Using the system recovery disk but Startup Repair detects no errors and System Restore fails. The next step I've seen is to repair your BCD following these steps
Bootrec.exe
bcdedit /export C:\BCD_Backup
c:
cd boot
attrib bcd -s -h -r
ren c:\boot\bcd bcd.old
bootrec /RebuildBcd
bootrec /fixmbr
bootrec /fixboot
My problem now is that I don't have a c:/boot folder? What gives? Please help, I really don't want to do a fresh install over a crappy windows update.
My OS is Windows 7 64-bit Pro. It's installed on a 64gb SSD with a a 500gb normal HDD for storage. The normal HDD is unplugged and all other non CD drives are disabled to get system repair to boot okay.
