Solved Start up repair problem in Win 7 x64

[vakili]

Hi
I have a Win 7 ultimate x64 on my Dell Vostro 1510 laptop.
Today I tried to start it but it did not boot.
I inserted my installation disk for start up repair and it said that "It's not for a 64 bit operating system!" but i installed my win 7 from this disk!

What should I do?

pardon me for my bad language.

Hello vakili, and welcome to the Sevenforums.

What was the cause, to the best of your knowledge, of the computer not being able to start windows?

Try a repair install: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/3413-repair-install.html

Failing that, would you consider a complete reinstall? In other words, do you have files that you really need?

Welcome to Windows Seven Forums.

What Windows media source are you using?

Is it a retail Windows 7 DVD, a Dell Windows DVD or a recovery disc?

Thanks for your fast answers.
Windows did not start completely, in comes until this page:

and never goes out. I can not log on into windows
I don't like to a complete reinstall because I have many data on my desktop.
It is a retail Windows 7 DVD that I used for installation and startup repair.

What can I do now?

Thanks

Vakili, did you have a restore point created?

 

[seavixen32]

In that case, I would try the repair install that Dusty suggested.

Unlike a clean install, it leaves your applications and personal data intact.

about restore point : I don't think so.
I can not log on into windows to use the "Repair install"
I think it's necessary to log on into windows to do a repair install,isn't it?

 

[DustSailor]

Be patient, someone may come around with an idea.

meanwhile, what does your installation DVD say on it? and exactly what does your computer say when you attempt a startup repair? And it does look like a repair install requires an admin log in, so we'll have to skip that.

 

[seavixen32]

Yes, it is necessary to log in first.

However, as the computer is hanging at the Windows Starting screen it's quite likely you may have a hardware problem.

Can you also let us know how and where you acquired your Windows 7 DVD?

Have you tried booting into safe mode.

I booted to win 7 DVD in "System recovery options", I clicked on "startup repairs" but it said: "This version of system recovery option is not compatible with the version of windows you are trying to repair"

It's the DVD that I installed my Win 7 x64 from it,

I tried to boot in Safe Mode, but on "classPNP.sys" it remains...

 

[seavixen32]

It would seem then that Windows is looking for a Dell recovery disc or partition.

If yoy clean installed Windows, chances are you've wiped the recovery partition.

Did you ceate a set of Dell recovery discs at any time? If so, try using them.

Try tapping F8 to enter Advanced Boot Options.

Is there a Repair My Computer choice? If so, boot into System Recovery Options to run Startup Repair repeatedly no matter what it reports, at least 3 separate times.

If no Repair choice, reset your BIOS to factory defaults, enter BIOS setup to set HD to boot first, then use the one-time BIOS Boot Menu key to trigger DVD.

Where did you get Win7? If you burned DVD yourself, confirm ISO integrity or download another, burn DVD using IMgBurn at 4x speed, or write to flash stick using Universal USB Installer with Win7 in dropdown, boot using one-time BIOS boot menu key under USB, Removable or HD's.

If Startup Repair fails to find the problem, try System Restore from the Options list.

Infection may be blocking repairs. Download, burn to CD or write to flash stick Microsoft Standalone System Sweeper, boot it to run a Full scan, repeatedly if it finds infection, until it is completely clean.

Then run Startup Repair again 3 separate times no matter what it reports.

Next access a Command Line from Recovery options list, run SFC -SCANNOW Run in Command Prompt at Boot. If it repairs System files, it may need to be run more than once then run Startup Repair again.

Next boot into free Partition Wizard bootable CD. Make sure Win7 or it's 100mb System Reserved (preferred) partition are marked Active. Then click on HD to highlight it, from Disk tab run Rebuild MBR, Apply. If this fails on System Reserved partition, change Active flag to Win7 partition, click OK, then run Rebuild MBR again, Apply. If Win7 doesn't start and you marked or changed Active flag, try Startup Repairs again now.

You can copy out your files using System Recovery Options using this method: Copy & Paste - in Windows Recovery Console. Read my comment at the end of the comments section on how to do this from options accessed via F8. You can also use Paragon Rescue CD freeware to rescue files.

Then boot Win7 DVD, follow these steps to get a perfect reinstall: Reinstalling Windows 7

Solved!

I finally solved the problem!
with thanks to "gregrocker" , but I found another solution:

I searched the Net and found a windows 7 x64 startup repair iso, I downloaded it, burned it in a CD and then:
I booted my laptop with this disk,
Then I used startup repair and without any error it fixed the problem
after restarting my laptop, windows 7 booted completely and I logged in!

I think my installation DVD was incompatible for startup repair and I don't know why.
I just installed my Win 7 x64 from this DVD disk.

Thanks all.

Is this a 64 bit Win7 installation DVD, or some type of Recovery DVD which came with the computer?

If you want you can post back a screenshot of your maximized Disk management drive map with listings, using the Snipping Tool in Start Menu, so we can make sure it's configured correctly.
