boot selection failed because a required device is inaccessible
Ok, so my recovery partition disappeared, so as a last resort I followed these instructions - and changed my active partition to the second partition in my list... and now my laptop is utterly bricked.
I've tried downloading a windows 7 starter image and putting it on a USB and booting from that - but it won't - all that happens ever, is that I get this message:
Windows failed to start...to fix the problem:
1: insert your windows installation disc and restart your computer
2. choose your language settings and then click next
3. click repair your computer
If you do not have this disc contact your system administrator or computer manufacturer for assistance
Status 0xc000000f
Info: the boot selection failed because a required device is inaccessible.
Help!!! please?
