0 How to…, Management, Troubleshooting broken, chkdsk, error loading operating system, mbr, restore, testdisk, vmware After a restore a virtual machine failed to start, the screen remained black and the following error was displayed: "Error loading operating system" All standard solutions like "chkdsk /r", "chkdsk /p", fixmbr, fixboot,… did not work. After some deeper research I noticed that there may be a problem with the disk geometry of the virtual disk. I guess that this occured when we aligned a lot of virtual machines some times ago or something happend during the restore. Fortunately I found a tool that helped to clean up the mess and made the virtual machine bootable. Solution: Attach the broken boot disk (vmdk) to another virtual machine download the tool "Testdisk" unzip the tool and start testdisk_win.exe on the virtual machine you use for repair Select "No Log": Select the disk you want to repair: Select "Intel/PC partition": Now select "MBR Code - Write TestDisk MBR code to first sector": confirm "Write a new copy of MBR code to first sector" with y (yes) confirm "Write a new copy of MBR code, confirm" with y (yes) Select OK after the new copy of MBR code has been written successfully. Now select "Advanced - Filesystem Utils": In the next window select "Boot": If there are mismatches or problems you will get a view like this: to solve this, select "Rebuild BS" when the rebuild was successfull, leave the tool using "quit" till all windows are closed unattach the virtual disk from the virtual machine power on your broken Virtual machine - it should now boot without any problems!
