Windows 10: System is not booting anymore

Hi everybody,

I have a problem with my windows system. I tried to install a new printer. The CD did not come out so I had to force him out. Then, the computer was kind of slow for a little bit and it finally shut off. Upon restarting it, I get the blue screen. Safe mode, repair, ....are not working. I always get the blue screen. I tried repairing for the ISO installation on a USB key, but it did not work as well. I am afraid to lose my data so I am not sure if I should format.

Here attached a printscreen showing my disks. Considering that all my data seem to be on the D, can I format the C:/ without compromising my data??? I also attached a printscreen of the blue screen error message.

Let me know what you think.

Windows 10 1709 System Restore problems...


That seems to be an attempt at Option 2 in the tutorial, which requires you to
a. Boot to a command prompt (Did you?)
b. You then seem to be mixing steps 3,4 and 5, thus your command is incorrect.

I suggest Option 1 is easier.

If you still have problems, please repost listing each specific step and saying which option from the tutorial you are using. Thanks.

Disk boot failure after removing old Vista partition

Thank you for the reply, muchomurka! As I indicated in my post, I have already tried all the steps you suggested to no avail:

- I cannot choose startup repair since the computer does not boot from the installation media
- I cannot use command prompt since the computer does not boot further than the POST screen
- I have disconnected and tried out all hard drives individually.

Since I had Win 10 up and running a few hours ago, I can say with 100% certainty that none of the hardware is faulty.

The real mystery is, how come the system won't boot from any media without an empty disk containing an old Vista boot sector being on top of the boot priority list? And which steps to take now that I've cleaned this disk and it does not exist anymore?

Would appreciate any ideas and pointers!
