    Corrupt MBR


    I am having a problem booting on Windows 10. Attempting to boot brings it to Windows RE.


    I found the following suggestions to correct the issue.

    When I ran bootrec /FixMbr , it completed.


    When I ran bootrec /fixboot , I received an access denied message (or similar wording - didn't write it down)


    Any suggestions?

    :)

    MBR keeps corrupting after restart

    I have a machine that when restarted or allowed to go into hibernation, I receive a missing/corrupted master boot record message and Windows doesn't boot. I am able to successfully repair the MBR each time using Windows recovery console, but I'm unable to determine what keeps making it happen.

    Dell Latitude E6420
    Windows 7 64bit

    Steps performed so far: -besides fixing the MBR after each restart or hibernation
    -ran system file checker sfc /scannow
    -ran chkdsk
    -verified that ACHI was enabled in the bios

    If I can't figure this out I will end up just reinstalling the operating system, but I worried that the issue with just reoccur later down the line. Any advice/recommendations would be much appreciated.

    In post 26 there were steps listed to fix the operating system corruption.
