    Windows 7 Ultimate Constantly Rebooting in to Recovery Console


    Hello everyone. I rebooted my computer today and now every time I try and bring it up it goes in to the recovery console and doesn't show that I have an operating system loaded. I have tried everything from safe mode, to last known good config, vga mode, tried repairing errors, and nothing works. I tried System Restore from the Recovery Console options but it kept reading that I must "Select an operating system in order to continue". Obviously, I can't select one if it isn't there to do so. Gggrrr....I think my hard drive is going bad from a diagnostic test, so I need to get it booted up just long enough to create a backup so I don't lose years worth of work. ANY help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.

    If your HD drive diagnostic test, said you have bad drive, it needs to be replaced.

    Yes, I realize it needs to be replaced. However, as I stated, I'm just trying to get it to boot so that I can create a Windows backup and restore it on a new drive so that all my programs, settings, etc. are still there.
