Windows 10: Blue Screen, then Windows Automatic Repair - C: drive renamed to G:

Hello!


My computer (running Windows 10) crashed to a blue screen of death yesterday. The stop code was SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION, for the file nvlddmkm.sys (which appears to be related to the nVidia graphics card).


Upon reboot, my PC displays the Windows Automatic Repair tool. I have tried running chkdsk (it returned no errors), as well as restoring the restoring the master boot record over the command prompt. The boot behavior didn't change. Booting into Safe Mode does not work.


I noticed later that the C: partition (which is the Windows partition) is now basically empty, with the Windows folder being moved to "G:" (which until yesterday didn't exist). Following this guide

I attempted to restore the system boot drive letter. However, this also hasn't changed anything - the computer still shows the Automatic Repair Tool instead of booting.


I'll gladly supply any further information. I appreciate any help in advance!

Windows 7 Blue Screen of Death!

This is the first time i have ever got the blue screen, but it keeps on occurring, and so i cannot get onto that hard drive, it shuts down within a second of the blue screen showing itself, which doesnt give me any time to read it lol. So i am completely confused as there is no Path of: "C:\WINDOWS\Minidump" as well

Thanks for the help, do you have any further suggestions ?

Unable to prompt in c: after an automatic repair. Any ideas ?

Hi all,

After a failed automatic repair, i tried to prompt in c: but i got a I/O message error.

I can prompt in D: or E: (or others) but not in C:

I try to restore a Windows 10 family ed. or at least to access the users documents folder to back up on an usb drive.

I'm lost (in paradise of windows automatic repair). So if someone have an idea or any "step by step" suggestion to solve my problem, i will be always grateful.

BR,
