Yesterday everything was fine and I haven't change anything in the mean time, but this morning, my computer can't boot anymore. When booting, the dell logo is displayed and the dell line is loading, then a black screen appears with a dash flashing for 2 or 3 times in the top left corner and then nothing happens. I get a black screen forever with the fan going crazy. When I press ctrl+alt+del, my computer reboot, and the same problem goes again.
Update: I was able to login windows after doing a chkdsk C: /f /r /x
which found several orphan file, fixed some files system and found a bad cluster.
At the following reboot I was able to pass the windows logo but then I got a BSOD with critical process died
error
I tried:
- to remove every devices connected, the charger, the battery and I pressed the power button for 20 seconds
- using a cmd from a windows recovery USB (created this morning):
- in
diskpart
: thesystem reserve partition
was assigned to the letterC
and themain windows partition
was assigned to the letterF
, which suprised me because I know that my windows partition was onC
. After following the step on this link, the letter were reversed with themain windows partition
assigned toC
and thesystem reserve partition
assigned toF
. - still following the link above I did
bcdboot C:\Windows /s c: /f ALL
which resulted inbfsvc error could not open the bcd template store
- then I tried
bcdboot c:\windows /v /s c: /f ALL
(notice the /v) which told me that boot was succesfully copied but I still have the same boot problem - I tried this command with either the
C:
(main windows) partition set as active and theF:
(system reserve) partition set as active. (After reading many answer I am confused about which one should be set active)
Still in cmd of windows RE:
bootrec /fixmbr
: the operation completed succesfullybootrec /fixboot
: first I gotelement not found
, but now, after doing the dispart thing above, I am gettingthe volume does not contain a recognized file system
bootsect /nt60 c: /mbr
:bootcode was successfully updated on all targeted volumes
bootrec /rebuiltbcd
: 2 windows installed are found, one inC:\Window
and one inC:\Windows.old
(I have updated to Windows 10 2004 a week ago), but I didn't have any boot problem for a week after the update, except today): I choose Y to add the first install to teh but table and N for the second wibdows install : but I get the errorThe requested system device cannot be found
scf /scannow
: no problem are found- I can't find a way to start in safe mode (the option is not in the recovery menu)
I have also used the ubuntu boot repair
which didn't solved anything

You have done too many manipulations and may have increased the already-existing damage to the disk.
