well, when you bought your computer and installed windows 7 you should have occasionally seen a popup saying "please make a repair disk" at the bottom of the screen...or maybe it is just the manufacturer that im using that does it
I never had the pc from new , so is there a link a can download a repair disc , thanks
If you can't get into your windows 7 to use method one, try method two of this tutorial,
System Repair Disc - Create
Boot the repair CD, accept any offered repair.
If it won't start boot back in, click through to Recovery Tools list to run Startup Repair repeatedly with reboots.
Next you need to use CD command line to make sure that Win7 is marked Active: Partition - Mark as Active
Then run Startup Repair again repeatedly with reboots to see if it will start. Report back.
