Windows Not Booting

[Kaktussoft]

I do have another laptop with Windows 7 Ultimate and also an Ubuntu Bootable USB. Can I do something with that

Create a system repair disk on that machine. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/2083-system-repair-disc-create.html

Boot the sick machine from that dvd. Does it see the win7 install? Can you see the recovery options like startup repair, system restore, command prompt?

I am on it

 

[Kaktussoft]

enter command prompt:

bcdedit /set  {default}  recoveryenabled   no

This disables automatic recovery to startup repair in case of errors. It does it for the default OS (you only have 1).

Now try to boot from harddisk and tell me what happens. look carefully for errors and everything that happens!

To revert back to how it was:

bcdedit /set  {default}  recoveryenabled   yes

 

[Kaktussoft]

Still recoveryenabled=no

Try minimal boot. (just boot normally)

bcdedit/set  {default}  safeboot  Minimal

or minimal with network. (just boot normally)

bcdedit/set  {default}  safeboot  Network

revert back to normal as it was by deleting safeboot value

bcdedit/deletevalue  {default}  safeboot

enter command prompt:

bcdedit /set  {default}  recoveryenabled   no

Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To fix the problem:
1. Insert your Windows installation disc and restart your computer.
2. Choose 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.
File: \Windows\system32\DRIVERS\MpFilter.sys
Status: 0xc0000098
Info: Windows failerd to load because a critical system driver is missing or corrupt.

Still recoveryenabled=no

Try minimal boot. (just boot normally)

bcdedit/set  {default}  safeboot  Minimal

Same:
Windows failed........................
.............................................
......................................or corrupt.
(Same as before)

 

[Kaktussoft]

bcdedit/deletevalue {default} safeboot
bcdedit /set {default} recoveryenabled yes

That resets all to the state is was. I gonna investigate what \Windows\system32\DRIVERS\MpFilter.sys really is.

 

[Kaktussoft]

mpfilter.sys is Microsoft Malware Protection Minifilter
It is part of microsoft security essentials. Do you have that installed on system?

 

[MamuMogambo]

bcdedit/deletevalue {default} safeboot
bcdedit /set {default} recoveryenabled yes

That resets all to the state is was. I gonna investigate what \Windows\system32\DRIVERS\MpFilter.sys really is.

Thanx

c:
cd  \windows\system32\drivers
ren  MpFilter.sys  MpFilter-test.sys

now set recoveryenabled to no again. So you get the mpfilter.sys error message. It should be gone now. What happens when booting?

 

[Kaktussoft]

something really strange is happening!!
Here's described what status 0xc000098 is. Even i don't know what it means

Windows failed to load because:critical system driver missing or corrupt windows\system32\drivers\crcdisk.sys
Status 0xc0000098
//
// MessageId: STATUS_FILE_INVALID
//
// MessageText:
//
// The volume for a file has been externally altered such that the opened file is no longer valid.
//
#define STATUS_FILE_INVALID ((NTSTATUS)0xC0000098 L)

looks like the crcdisk.sys is broken.

Yes I have MSE installed

What do you reckon I should do next

 

[Kaktussoft]

What do you reckon I should do next

Did you do post #70 already?

Also do

bcdedit /set  {default}  recoveryenabled   no

Leave it no during testing, so you see why it crashes.

What happens when you boot now?

Do you have a western digital disk or seagate disk?
