Posted March 27, 201311 yr FPCH Admin I have a Toshiba laptop, Windows 7 Ultimate. I dont have a recovery disk. Everytime I start windows, Windows Error Recovery ( http://www.techjaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/win7-error-recovery.png ) shows up with two choices 1. Launch Startup Repair (recommended) 2. Start Windows Normally Whenever I try to choose 2, it gets stuck at Starting Windows screen ( http://www.windows7password.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/safemodewindows71_thumb.jpg) So I chose 1. It lead me here ( http://www.fanhow.com/images/thumb/f/fb/Boot_to_Windows_7_System_Recovery_Options_5.png/540px-Boot_to_Windows_7_System_Recovery_Options_5.png ) I first tried Command Prompt, then I typed "chkdsk c: /f /r" . It took already 3 days. The last time I saw it, it was already (sorry i dont remember) "67,000+ of 300,000 files processed (Stage 4 of 5)" I left for a while then when I came back, it was already rebooting. I don't think its done already because it took too long. . . After rebooting, it displayed again the Windows Error Recovery screen. Then I tried Windows Memory Diagnostic. Everything went fine. The status is always "No problems have been detected yet" until it finished. It still displayed the Recovery screen. I tried System Restore. I chose the latest restore point. When I click next it freezes and its stuck in there for a long time. Next, I tried System Image Recovery, but I don't have any system image saved. Lastly, I tried Startup Repair, it took too long so I cancelled it. I thought it might be like the chkdsk that took too long but didn't fix the problem. I tried Advanced Boot Options ( http://ww2.justanswer.com/uploads/operab/2010-05-17_070306_Advanced_Boot_Options.jpg ) then I tried the 3 Safe Modes. It didn't worked. It was all stuck at this - > http://www.administrator.de/images/content/f1a9ac1584b0c371c0381bfaadbbf49f.jpg I tried Enable Boot Logging, Enable low-resolution video (640x480), Last Known Good Configuratio (advanced), Directory Mode, Disable automatic restart on system failure, and Disable Signature Enforcement and it all lead to "Starting Windows" screen.....
