Boot Windows 7 "mbr" or the bootloader \windows\system32\winload.exe (without using windows 7 repair disk)
What if you install Second Windows 7 as Secondary OS and you have an error:
Windows Boot ManagerAlternative error messages:
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 your 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\winload.exe
Status: 0xc000000e
Info: The selected entry could not be loaded because the application is missing or corrupt
Another common way to troubleshoot this error is to search for “Missing or corrupt winload.exe“.
This error happens when Windows’ BOOTMGR tries to load the Boot\BCD registry (master boot record), but it’s either corrupted or has a bad configuration. At this step the boot loading process simply stops and the status code appears.
Windows Setup CD/DVD Required! (if you do not have one scroll down to option two)Some of the solutions below require the use of the Microsoft Windows setup CD or DVD. If your PC did not come with a Windows installation disc or if you no longer have your Windows setup media, you can use Easy Recovery Essentials for Windows instead. EasyRE will automatically find and fix many problems, and can also be used to solve this problem with the directions below.
Fix #a: Rebuild the BCD with Bootrec.exe
BCD stands for Boot Configuration Data, contains boot configurations options and controls how your Windows is started.
Bootrec.exe is a tool built in the Windows Recovery Environment (Windows RE) that can repair boot configuration data and master boot records. You can access Bootrec.exe using a Windows installation disc.
Insert your Windows install disc and boot from it
Press any key at the “Press any key to boot from CD or DVD” message
Choose Repair your computer after you select the language, time and keyboard method
Select your Windows installation drive (usually C:\) and click Next
Select Command Prompt in the System Recovery Options box
Write bootrec /rebuildbcd and press Enter:
bootrec /rebuildbcd
Press Enter
Wait for the program to finish
Fix #b: Use sfc /scannow
A sfc /scannow (sfc stands for System File Checker) command will scan all Windows protected files to try replace the corrupt ones with the correct versions.
Here are the steps to run sfc:
Boot from the install CD
Select your language, time and keyboard method
Click on Repair your computer
Select your operating system when the System Recovery Options box appears, but note down the drive’s letter (e.g. F:, G: etc.). In our example this will be D:.
Select Command Prompt
Type the following command with your hard drive’s letter:
sfc /scannow
Press Enter
When scanning is complete, type exit to quit the Command Prompt:
exit
Press Enter
Restart your computer
OPTION TWO IF YOU DO NOT HAVE ORIGINAL CD
You need a free Windows Live account for that, but you can created one. A fake name is fine as your real name.
To use the downloaded iso, you have to burn it on a DVD in a special way. Namely as a raw image, not directly as .ISO file.
In Windows (all versions) proceed as follows:
You can use your favorite burning application for this, but it's probably a lot easier with the free Windows application ImgBurn.
You can download this fine free-ware application here. Note: take care not to install an extra load of useless rubbish during installation.... You only need the ImgBurn itself.
After the installation of ImgBurn, you can use it now ~ click here to see how to use it.
Note: burn the DVD at low speed, preferably at 4 x. That way you greatly reduce the risk of burning errors.
