Mini-PC not starting ?
hi !
i´m trying to repair a friends netbook (Mini-PC), running W7-Ultimate.
it doesn´t start normally, because of a driver-installation that has messed up the system.
chkdsk reports an "error on C: because of driver installation" ,"try system restore".
the only alternative that works is "Safe mode with network".
"system restore" refuses to start, reports "disk error on C:", "repair that first...".
i´ve tried "sfc/scannow" but it doesn´t start, i get an errormessage: "system restore waiting, restore computer first,
then run scannow again".
looks like a "loop", with errormessages....
eventlog isn´t running, so i can´t check for the "bad" driver.
i have uninstalled a "suspect" installation (spotify), but it didn´t change anything.
just finally managed to run system restore, i tried the 2 existing points, but none of them are any good.
any ideas before i reinstall W7 ?
