I upgraded to Windows 8 several months ago from Windows 7 (on-line/no disc). This week the system was installing the Windows update and shutdown normally. When I started it back up. I got the above message.
When the system restarts itself, it trys the automatic recovery, but apparently it fails. After having to select the keyboard language, all I get is a troubleshoot and turn off option. Troubleshooting, I get the following:
refresh - the Windows drive is locked, unlock it and try again
reset - a required drive partition is missing
system restore - can't specify which Windows installation to restore
system recovery - internal error 0x80070002
at the command prompt, it shows x:windows/system32. I cannot run drwtsn32
Help, please!
