Windows 7: My Computer Won't Boot !! Page 1 of 2 1 2 > 21 Dec 2010 #1 michaelsp9 Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit . 90 posts My Computer Won't Boot !! Laptop info: Samsung R580 Windows 7 32-bit Home Premium, factory-installed 4GB DDR3 RAM NVidia Gforce Graphics Intel Core i3 processor Problem: Yesterday I was resizing the D: from 180GB to 30GB to create a new Hard Drive partition, the D: was only using 4 GB at the time anyways. I was using Windows's default Drive Partition manager found by Right-Clicking "Computer", clicking "Manage" etc. Everything worked perfectly for a couple of hours. I could turn my laptop on, off, restart etc. It worked perfectly. Then I turned it off and went for a nap, I woke up to my laptop and turned it on and an "Windows Boot Manager" error came up saying: Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be he cause. To fix the problem: 1. Insert your Windows Installation disk and restart your computer 2. Choose your language settings, and then click "Next". 3. Click "Repair your computer" If you do not have this disk, contact your system admin or computer manufacturer for assistance. Status: 0xc000000e Info: The boot selection failed because a required device is inaccessible. I went on my main PC and downloaded a Windows 7 32-bit repair CD as I didn't have one.

I'm running Vista on a 3-year old Dell Dimension E521. Suddenly it won't boot (goes to "Windows Error Recovery"), and safe mode doesn't start either. From the Boot Device Menu the option "bootable hard drive" reports that "BOOTMGR an error is missing". I've tried to repair using the Vista installation CD. I select the language/time/keyboard options, then "repair your computer" this gives me "System Recovery Options" but it fails to find an installed operating system (the list titled Operating System/Partition Size/Location is empty). The SYSTEM RECOVERY MENU then gives the following options :- Startup Repair System Restore Windows complete PC restore Windows an error is memory diagnostic tool Command prompt STARTUP REPAIR eventually reports "Windows cannot repair this computer automatically". under "problem details" it reports "Problem signature 06 : MissingBootManager" SYSTEM RESTORE fails with the message "to perform an offline System Restore you must specify which Windows installation you would like to restore" WINDOWS MEMORY DIAGNOSTIC TOOL reports "Windows cannot check for memory problems. A problem is preventing Windows from checking for memory problems during startup" I have seen other similar problems reported on this website, and the suggested solution was to try X:\ Sources>bootrec/fixboot However this gives the error message "incorrect function" from the COMMAND PROMPT. And obviously I don't want to wipe my hard drive with the WINDOWS COMPLETE PC RESTORE option. I've checked the boot sequence in the BIOS, and it is correct. So I'm out of ideas, and I can't find any other options on this forum or others, can anybody suggest what I try next please ? I'd be very grateful !
