A BSOD that breaks my heart

Yes I will backup my DATA asap and get back.Sorry about that, but Im too preoccupied with this diary thing.

The hard disk is detectable and accessible via boot cds, I even took a backup of C using Acronis earlier , but it does not convert to vhd using Acronis true image converter or VmWare Converter, so I cannot even make an attempt to boot it.

But besides that, I have screwed my bootlaoder while trying to use that fix I mentioned . Can it be fixed with a Win 7 x64 boot disk.

I will use partition wizard bootable cd and upload the snapshot. I think the partition system is screwed thats why some boot cds have problem detecting all partitions.

But in any case, is it even remotely possible to boot that windows again, however it may be - VBox/Vmware or maybe on the lappy itself ?

Hello Viraj.

I think what Britton30 suggested it a good thing to try. You need to do it.

Stop 0x7B with boot failure is a bit serious. Check it that the BIOS is detecting the Hdd or not. Download windows defender offline, burn it in a blank disc and do a full scan.

Download partition wizard bootable cd. Boot from it. Upload a camera snap of the partition table as shown in partition wizard.

May be we may be able to get some info from these.

The partition wizard bootable cd simply stops at the console, it does not enter the GUI .

There seems to be a problem, how do I proceed ?

It says cant access tty !

I have Lucid Puppy, Ophcrack, TRK, Debian. Also Acronis True Image. In either case how would I get the partition info ?

Ill give WDO a try, but then what about the bootloader.

Without the bootloader thing, how do I proceed, since the bootloader is not proper.

And lastly if its a partition consistency error, how do I fix it. I have TRK and system Rescue CD !

Hello Viraj. Do you have any other linux live disc? Try with them.... are they resulting the same?

It may be a bad virus.... try WDO too.

Arc, I had posted in the begining of the thread that I had messed up using some commands I found in the link (check my quote). It is after issuing these commands that I couldn't boot at all, the commands somehow ruined the bootloader config (earlier I could at least boot into recovery), shows Winload.exe is corrupt or missing.

How do I restore this boot loader.

Ok I tried this fix. :Solution: STOP Error 0x0000007b (0xfffff880009a98e8 0xffffffffc000000d 0×0000000000000000…) | Triple-S Computers Blog – Louisville, KY computer repair specialist

My repair tool indeed did not identify the windows installation, but now my pc simply does not boot. Dies on the first screen. Damn Me !

I am suggesting wdo coz the bootloader may be disturbed by a so called bootkit, too.

Yes but the data is the diary Ive been writing, the sofware name -My Digital Diary and that data is only accessible by running that program.

I did access the C_drive - copy the contents of My Digital Diary using Acronis True Image from one pc to another. I installed a fresh version of My Digital Diary on another PC, overwrote the contents with the ones backedup in Program Files - but that diary Data could not be retrieved, only the login account was copied (the s/w has a login system) and I was only able to login.

For the time being, forget about trying to get the disk to boot again. You've already said that the data stored on it is important to you, so you should really be concentrating on being able to retrieve and save as much of this data as possible. If the drive is damaged, every time you write to it or try to boot from it will potentially reduce the possibility of recovering your data. You need to boot your system using a live Linux disc, which should allow you to access your drive so that you can copy the data off it. Only once you have copied all the data that can be copied (note that this might or might not be all of it), can you consider trying to restore full functionality to the disk (if that is possible).
