It was on the 24th of August 2016 that I boot my Desktop
Computer Optiplex GX 620 Brand of
Dell Model. After loading the Operating System when cool booting, on arriving
where I will insert the administrative password, it will restart itself. So it could
not successfully boot to Desktop windows and these remains continues process
showing that the startup operating system software was corrupt. So I have to
insert window7 DVD to correct the problem. But the computer could not see the
DVD disc on the DVD WR which I later replaced the drive with another one.
Now after setting the Bios to boot Windows 7 from DVD Disc, I
was trying to switch from booting normal to booting from DVD when I press F12
and selected DVD as option, immediately I hit the ENTER KEY from the input device which is the KEYBOARD, the whole thing on the screen went blank except a white
underscore blinking cursor, the power on the Key board and mouse went off as
well. I did everything possible to see that the USB Keyboard and the Mouse
received light or being dictated by my system, but it could not work out. I
took it to repairer who could not solve the problem as well.
After two days, I came back to the same computer with the
help of a repairer we brought out the RAM from its sitting and clean it and replaced
it back to its sitting. Then we use electric blower and remove some dusty part
of the system units to include mother board. To my greatest surprise I powered
the system; everything came back to life including the mouse and the keyboard.
I have to continue with the repair myself from this point because the repairer
is not well experience in software programming. Now I insert another Windows 7
DVD disc to run installation and correct the startup problem. But the Repair operation
System in windows 7 DVD inserted was not compatible with the existing Operating
System in my DELL SYSTEM. So I have to go to nearby Computer Accessory dealer and
purchased WINDOWS 7 DVD DSIC which has 32 and 64 bit systems and I inserted it
now right inside my room to run the installation repair.
When I began with the repair, it was not an easy one like normal
installation process. I have applied professionalism to correct that startup corrupt operating system which
ordinary startup repair could not correct. Now the process of correcting this
problem advanced as followed:
I have to Undergone Dual Boot:
During the first booting, after inserting the WINDOWS 7 DVD
and switching successfully from Booting normal to Booting from DVD Drive by
pressing F12 and using the arrow key to arrive to the main menu as well as selecting
it with Enter Key. I arrived in an environment where there are options to set Language,
I have to set the language options and click next on the menu as well. Remember
I am booting from the DVD WINDOWS 7 Disc. The next action I precede after the
next option appeared was to click on SYSTEM
REPAIR from three opting presented in that environments. Now the SYSTEM REPAIR option now searched for
valid operating System and reports that “Windows
found problem with your computer start up option? Do you want to apply repair
and restart your computer? Then I clicked repair and restart and reboot
again to window 7 repair environment.
Now this time I have to click next at the Keyboard selection
prompt and when the SYSTEM RECOVERY OPTION
screen appeared. I have to select from the options “Use recovery tools that
can help fix problem starting windows. So, I first selected system Restore,
after completing the process and restarted, on the second boot to the same options
I have to select “COMMAND PROMPT”.
Now trying to fix this startup error with specific MS DOS
command became relevant and the main problem solution to this error repair installation.
So, on the COMMAND PROMPT environment
which is MS-DOS I have to type the
following command to fix the error:
X:\Source>CD.. (THIS
MEANS CHANGE DIRECTORY)
X:\> (PREVIOUS
COMMAND WILL BRING YOU HERE)
Then type the next command:
X:\>bootrec.exe /Fixmbr
The operation completed successfully
The computer will display the above message as confirmation
after issuing the second command and the message is “The operation completed successfully”
The third Command goes like this:
X:\>bootrec.exe /Fixboot
The operation completed successfully
The computer will still display the above message as
confirmation after issuing the third command and the message is “The operation completed successfully”
The final command issued was:
X:\>bootrec.exe /RebuildBCD
Scanning all disks for windows installations please
wait since this may take a while…
The above message “Scanning
all disks for windows installations please wait since this may take a while…” is
displayed by your system after issuing the last command. Then after sometimes
the computer will still respond with the under listed statement:
Successful scanned windows installations.
Total Identified windows installation: 0
The operation completed successfully
X:\>
Then I have to close the command prompt environment and click
the first option from the options displayed from the INSERTED CD which is startup Repair option
The first repair process may take sometimes like 2 hours
depending on the capacity of your Hard disk, mine took 2 hours 30 minutes to
complete the first round. So I have to wait until the process was completed; at
which I saw the messages telling me that:
(1)
Startup
repair cannot repair the window automatically. And we need to note that these
messages are as are result of the radical changes made by removing other drive.
I ignored the send or not send
option that appeared as I proceed to close the message from “X” BUTTON in the upper right corner of
the Send/Don’t Send window.
(2)
Then
view advanced options for system recovery and support option and from the main
menu once again click “STARTUP REPAIR” the
second time. This time the process may take few seconds to complete and when
prompted :
“START UP REPAIR COULD NOT DETECT A PROBLEM”
Click finish and run the final “startup repair” again from the option. After
this last one click finish and remove the system repair DVD and Restart. Your
system will boot to windows completely without error.
