Laptop having Problems booting System recovery Error 0x80070003

[Ceciliaaa]

I also really need help with this! =(
When I started the computer today I got straight to the System repair screen =S
I tried the safety mode, but didn't work, only returned to the system repair menu.
Nothing happens when I try system repair.
I get the error message 80070003 when I try the System restor.
The memory diagnostic didn't give anything...

So now the only option left is the Command Prompt... ?

What to do?? I really don't want to get rid of all my files =( any ideas?

To answer these previous questions to another member, from my results I got:

diskpart
list disk
how many disks?

diskpart
sel disk 0
list part

How many partitions?

diskpart
list disk

how many disks?

Disk 0 online 465GB

diskpart
sel disk 0
list part

How many partitions?

4 - all primary

Work through these steps for Troubleshooting Windows 7 Failure to Start.

You can rescue your files in Step 9, then if nothing works run Factory Recovery or get the superior Clean Reinstall.

What happens exactly if you do startup repair? click "view diagnostics results" afterwards. Status 0x0 means success. What test has errors?
What happens exactly if you boot to "safe mode"?
Try "Disable Automatic Restart on System Failure" in http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/666-advanced-boot-options.html and post crash info

 

[Ceciliaaa]

When I run the startup repair I get the message "status repair cannot repair this computer automatically"
It also says "Problem event name: StartupRepairOffline" and the 7th Problem signature is NoOsInstalled.

All tests get a 0x0 and at the bottom it says "Root cause found: No OS found on disk" error code 0x490

If I boot in safe mode or the disable restart option it just goes to the Startup repair screen anyways =(

All partitions are ntfs? Which partition is active?

diskpart
list vol
exit

How many volumes and what drive letters? I'm not interested in DVD (detach all usb sticks and drives).
What is drive letter of win7 partition (look at partition size)?

 

[Ceciliaaa]

I typed the code and this is my result:

Sel part 0 - there are none (the spec partition is not valid)
Sel part 1 - Type 07, not hidden, active, Ltr C, NTFS
Sel part 2 - type 1B, hidden, not active
Sel part 3 - Type 07, not hidden, not activated, Ltr D, NTFS
Sel part 4 - Type EF, hidden, not active
Sel Part 5 - there are none

List Vol:
Volume 0 - Ltr C - NTFS - partition - 100GB - healthy
Volume 1 - Ltr D - NTFS - partition - 350GB - healthy

I typed the code and this is my result:

Sel part 1 - Type 07, not hidden, active, Ltr C, NTFS
Sel part 2 - type 1B, hidden, not active
Sel part 3 - Type 07, not hidden, not activated, Ltr D, NTFS
Sel part 4 - Type EF, hidden, not active

List Vol:
Volume 0 - Ltr C - NTFS - partition - 100GB - healthy
Volume 1 - Ltr D - NTFS - partition - 350GB - healthy

partition 2 and 4 are recovery stuff.

Volume C (not necessary C in win7!) is BOOT partition. It has the boot menu. At least it should have.
Is win7 on 100GB or 350GB partition?

Anyway do:

chkdsk/f  C:
chkdsk/f  D:

Any errors? All repaired? Run again to prove no more errors.

bcdedit/store  c:\boot\bcd  /enum all > D:\bcd.txt

post D:\bcd.txt
You may delete the file afterwards.

 

[Kaktussoft]

also try:

bootsect  /nt60  C:  /force
bootsect  /nt60  C:  /force  /mbr

Both commands successful? Now try to boot normally

 

[Ceciliaaa]

Windows 7 should be on C. In the menu for "choose a recovery tool" it says "operating system: windows 7 on (C Local Disk"

From the chkdsk on both C an D I get:
Windows have checked the file system and found no errors - so I guess no errors

From the bcdedit - see images, I'm sorry but I have no idea how to get that text to my iPhone in any other way =/

When I do bootsec nothing happens, at least not what I can see, I tried restarting, but still the same...

Try:

bootrec /fixmbr
bootrec /fixboot

succesfull? Try to boot normally. bcd look fine

In #24 you said NoOsInstalled. The repair couldn't find win7. Now you say "operating system: windows 7 on (C) Local Disk". Was it all the time saying "operating system: windows 7 on (C) Local Disk"?

 

[Ceciliaaa]

When I start the computer I come straight to the System repair, I choose my keyboard language and click on Next. The message I get is "Cannot repair this computer automatically" I click on Problem details:
Problem signature:
Problem event name: StartupRepairOffline
Problem signature 1 and 2 - 6.1.7600.16385
Problem sign 3 - unknown
Problem sign 4 - -1
Problem sign 5 - Auto Failover
Problem sign 6 - 1
Problem sign 7 - NoOsInstalled
OS version - 6.1.7600.2.0.0.256.1
Locale ID - 1033

When I then close this box and click on View advanced options For system recovery I get to the menu for "choose a recovery tool" where it says "operating system: windows 7 on (C Local Disk"
It has been the same message every time...

Trying the codes now...

 

[Ceciliaaa]

From
Bootrec /fixmbr
The operation completed successfully

And the same for bootrec /fixboot

I shut down the computer and start it again... Crap! It's still the same =(

I try the system repair again, but its still the same...

 

[Kaktussoft]

You still have C and D and they have no errors. C is active so has the bootmgr and bootmenu. In bootmenu (bcd) i see win7 is on C as well. fixmbr rewrote the mbr bootcode. fixboot rewrote the volume bootsector of C.

All fine so far. Computer is actually booting..... it loads bootmgr and bootmenu. And loads the operating system.... but it fails... so it enters recovery environment.

Try this http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/139576-startup-repair-infinite-loop-recovery.html
In step 13 of tutorial (so folder REGBACK)... what are the date/time of those files? Did you install/uninstall software after that date/time?

 

[gregrocker]

Have you begun the steps for Troubleshooting Windows 7 Failure to Start yet?

If Win7 is infected it may not repair. Then there are multiple steps to take to try to repair it so that you know you have tried everything possible.

 

[Ceciliaaa]

Okej, I'm having problems with this "Startup Repair Infinite Loop Recovery" guide... In step 9 I'm supposed to type in CD\windows\system32\config
But I do not have a CD (and it doesn't say before that Im supposed to insert one) so it doesn't work...
But if I go to X I end up here: x:\Windows\system32>
And there I can write the - windows\system32\config
Result - x:\Windows\system32\config>
I type dir and get the spec of the files inside, and there I see the files that they are talking about in step 10, but I don't dare go ahead with step 11, if this is the wrong way to do it =S

Am I doing this right??

Also, my files are too small in size compare to the guide:
# The DEFAULT, SAM and SECURITY files should each be about 262,000 bytes in size.
My Default are about 262.000, but the SAM and Security are both at 8.192

#The SOFTWARE file should be about 26,000,000 bytes.
- My Software file are about 3.670.000

# The SYSTEM file should be about 9,900,000 bytes.
- My system file is about 2.007.000

CD in step 9 is not CD as a disc its typing the letters " CD "

:note: CD in dos mean change directory .
