I'm in the same boat as a previous post with HirensbootCD not having the hbcd menu programs.
I'm trying to repair my mom's computer I built new 4 months ago.
gigabyte h81-ds2v motherboard, g3258 intel cpu, samsung evo 250gb, wd 1tb black hhd for storage, 4gb g.skill ddr3-1600 ram, asus 24x dvd/cd rom, windows 7 home prem-64bit, antec 380w green ps.
I think the no boot to windows 7 problem started after windows automatic update rebooted the computer and the cable modem lost connection during the update.
Watching Brians youtubes for a while now and following his video on repairing the mbr with HirensbootCd.
HirensbootCD will boot up in minixp but only 4 icons and no hbcd programs.
I ran startup repair first in the system recovery options then went and tried a restore point back about 2 weeks ago, still no bootup into windows, just keeps going into automatic repair screen or start normally screen which loops right back to the same repair and start screen.
I have run bootrec /fixmbr and bootrec /fixboot from the windows 7 dvd repair command and still won't boot!
I have read some post on web about hbcd menu not working in 64 bit OS software...
I think I will have try repair from the windows 7 dvd disk next?
Any advice?
Chuck
