So the other day, there is a post about this here but there have been some developments, I installed Linux Kali to dual boot and messed up the booting of my PC. After messing around with the boot files I finally got it to boot the Windows 10 partition using this code menuentry 'Windows 10' { set root='(hd0,msdos1)' chainloader +1 } But it failed and I got a message similar to this. File: BootBCD Status: 0xc0000034 Info: The Windows Boot Configuration Data file is missing required information Yes that is the one for Windows 7, I couldn't find the Windows 10 version. I believe the error code and extra information was different. To fix the problem I followed these steps found here and here (the BurrWalnut answer) 1. Put the Windows installation disc in the disc drive, and then start the computer. 2. Press a key when the message indicating 'Press any key to boot from CD or DVD …'. appears. 3. Select a language, a time, a currency, and a keyboard or another input method, and then click Next. 4. Click Repair your computer. 5. Click the operating system that you want to repair, and then click Next. 6. In the System Recovery Options dialog box, click Command Prompt. 7. Type BOOTREC /FIXMBR, and then press ENTER. 8. Type BOOTREC /FIXBOOT, and then press ENTER. 9. Type BOOTREC /REBUILDBCD, and then press ENTER. The problem is when I enter the command 'BOOTREC /FIXBOOT' the output is 'Element not found' and when I enter the command 'BOOTREC /REBUILDBCD' it scans for operating systems, finds windows, asks if I want to add a boot for it, I enter 'Y' and then it gives the output 'Element not found'. I would really appreciate any help in fixing the problem
Hi All, My Desktop restarted on its own while I was browsing online and won’t boot to Windows 7 Pro. This is what shows up: File: Windowssystem32winload.exe Status: 0xc0000428 Info: Windows cannot verify the digital signature for this file. [/URL][/img] BELOW ARE ACTIONS I HAVE TAKEN SO FAR: 1. I boot my windows 7 prof. upgrade cd to repair and the system recovery options has: OS: Window 7 Partition size: 114369 MB Location: (D) Local Disk Why is my Operating system located on D:? Shouldn’t be on my primary C drive? [/URL][/img] 2. I attempted system repair and problem signature07 missingOSLoader showed up. [/URL][/img] 3. On DOS prompt: Action: Bootrec /fixMBR Result: The operation completed successfully Action: bootrec /fixBoot Result: The operation completed successfully Action: bootrec /rebuildBCD Result: Successfully scanned windows installations. Total identified windows installations: 0 The operation completes successfully. [/URL][/img] Since the BCD store exists and lists a Windows installation, you'll first have to 'remove' it manually and then try to rebuild it again bcdedit /export c:bcdbackup At this point, you need to adjust several file attributes for the BCD store so you can manipulate it. attrib c:bootbcd -h -r –s To rename the BCD store, execute the ren command as shown: ren c:bootbcd bcd.old rebuilding the BCD bootrec /rebuildbcd result: Scanning all disks for Windows installations. Please wait, since this may take a while... Successfully scanned Windows installations. Total identified Windows installations: 1 [1] D:Windows Add installation to boot list? Yes<Y>/No<N>/All<A>: Yes, Result: restart did not fix the problem 4. Memory check ok 5.
Ran System File Checker sfc /scannow /offbootdir=d: /offwindir=d:windows Windows resource protection did not find any integrity violation Other Information: I cannot F8 to advance boot option when loading from the Agility SSD, it only works when booting from Window 7 upgrade CD I have, but that doesn’t help since it boots to the Install & windows repair screen. [/URL][/img] I built this Computer June of 2011 and had no problem. In July of 2012 I migrated my current Primary Drive to a new OCZ Agility 3 AGT3-25SAT3-120G and since then there has been about half a dozen times when it will not boot up to my OS. It displays: “Version 2.02.1205, Copyright ( c ) 2010 American Megatrends, Inc.” [/URL][/img] After a manually shutdown and startup it boots fine. Does this have anything to do with the issue now? WHAT I AM ASKING: How to fix this issue: File: Windowssystem32winload.exe Status: 0xc0000428 Info: Windows cannot verify the digital signature for this file. And missingOSLoader Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Bootrec Commands
After trying to bootrec/rebuildbcd I find that there are 'Total identified Windows installations: 0' Also I will get either a Bad system config info blue screen. I really don't know what went wrong, I am just pretty upset that my tablet remains unresponsive. BCD of death (BCD missing, bootrec rebuild fail). Or at least move said files to the system folder after installation is done. Windows XP does not have a AHCI. BOOTREC /FIXMBR - operation completed successfully, BOOTREC /FIXBOOT - element not found, BOOTREC /REBUILDBCD - It finds my installation, and when I try to add it to boot list it says element not found, BOOTREC /SCANOS - same as above. Nov 01, 2013 BCD of death (BCD missing, bootrec rebuild fail) Hi everyone. I used a Win7 install dvd to reach the command prompt. Windows XP does not have a AHCI/RAID driver? It was the BIOS it was set on compatibility not 'AHCI' it booted up no problems. Maybe call it A-HIC up.
Bootrec Finds No Windows Installations
Aug 14, 2017 bootrec /rebuildbct (enter Y to add the entry) The thing is, it does not find the Windows XP I have installed, so it boots directly to Windows 10, instead of offering me a menu where I can choose Windows 10 or 'older versions of Windows' To add insult to injury, the msconfig shows the system still stuck in Selective mode, so recreating.
