Windows 7: *GRUB4DOS* Problem

Do you have a SATA drive? You can unplug the hard drive until you get to the language selection screen in the Repair Disc.



Let me ask you also: did you burn the ISO you downloaded using an image burning program, like ImgBurn?

yes sata i have...btw i dont burn a iso,i burn a files what is into iso beacuse i extract iso files what i download the recovery...i must burn the iso or what ??when i download a windows recovery 7 x86 its in iso file so?

You needed to burn the ISO using a burning program, not just the files. Use ImgBurn to burn the ISO

Okay!!Now i will do!.Thanks buddy

I know this thread is kinda old but here goes. I have been having the same problems with the GRUB4DOS Red screen booting thing . I have tried to make a repair disk and use it on my laptop but it never works. Whenever i try to repair boot system it does not work . Now i want to know if possible, step to step, how i can fix this. last time i tried it told me i had a missing or corrupt Boot manager or something. Its getting frustrating . Please help .

Hello,

Can you get the repair disc booted? If so, open a command prompt and run:If that doesn't help, we can try a few other commands.

this is what pops up

Successfully scanned Windows installations.
Total identified Windows installations: 0
The operation completed successfully.

nothing else

Mark the Windows partition as active: Partition - Mark as Active

Then run a Startup Repair from the disc, and if that doesn't work, try the commands I posted above again.

ok man will try it. it found 2 partitions should i mark them both active? also the startup repair is taking a fairly long time to finish

Mark the largest Windows partition as active, see how that goes.
