  1. Windows got corrupted while installation, can't boot


    So I am in a weird kind of situation.

    I was expecting some issues with windows like some apps ( AMD Driver Updates, Razer Cortex ) not installing due to some permission issues ( Eindows cannot find the file specified.). I was on Windows 10 1803. So I thought to reinstall Windows.

    I downloaded Windows 10 1809 Iso from Microsoft Website. But when I mounted the ISO and opened setup exe, it wouldn't open and give the same error. So I made bootable USB using unetbootin. But when booted from USB the setup said something like cannot find sources/install.wim . So i recreated the bootable USB but still the error wasn't gone. Then I went to System Recovery > System Image Recovery > Install Driver and then opened the setup.exe from the extracted ISO. I ran the setup and Windows got installed. But then it stuck on Getting Ready screen with the dots spinning for such long time that my laptops battery got drained out. And thus now everytime I restart my laptop, i ai am greeted with the error "

    The computer restarted unexpectedly..... Click Ok to restart installation". Upon clicking OK, the same thing happens. I cant boot into recovery normally. That can only be done from the bootable USB i created. But the USB doesn't allow me to reinstall windows ( Same error - cant find sources/install.wim ) same error appears upon opening the setup.exe file from extracted ISO.

    At this point I guess my system is completely done. But i have lots of important data in the HDD that cant be backed up as I dont have any extra storage device. So i would likr to know if theres any other way to "restart" the installation or anything ?

    I wad thinking of creating a new partition in thr HDD from CMD and then making it primary and trying to install windows windows to it somehow. If this can be done please tell .or any other way. I also read abkut changing some values in registry HKEY_local_machine > system > setup > status > child completion but those keys fontd exist in my system .



    Any Help would be appreciated amd thank you.

    :)

    Boot problems

    Hi everyone.

    I've got some problems during instalation. I disabled UAC, passed the first install step, rebooted and completed install. But after consequent reboot Windows detects 'ntoskrnl' or something is corrupted.

    Everything was fine on 'old' windows, but after I made a clean windows installation, everything goes this way.

    Any suggestions?

    Windows Installer Corrupted

    Hey, well a couple days ago I installed "Microsoft Update" over Windows Update, and WOW is that a great app, not only can it not update anything, but it corrupted my Windows Installer. Well since Windows XP knows better than me, I redownloaded Windows Installer 3.0 redistributable, and SWEET, Windows says "it's older than the current version, no update is necessary" and not only necessary but not possible to install. SOOOO should I reinstall SP2 or what? This is crazy. Thanks for the help
