Re: [fsug-tvm]: Unable to boot from any device... Please help
HI Visakh. Thankyou for your kind help. But, my problem is that the system is not booting up from any device after win7 installation messed up. That is, I cannot boot from cd or pendrive. In this situation, trying to install anything is simply not going to produce any results. Well. I have disconnected the HDD from the laptop, and now I am able to boot from usb stick. I will soon try to repartition the broken HDD, by connecting to some other system. HDD has no physical damage, I hope that I can repair the HDD by repartitioning. I am waiting for getting a HDD to usb adapter, so that I can connect it to another system.. regards, Mathew Roy On 29 December 2012 14:36, Visakh gokulda...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, What OS do you have on that system other than the messed up Win7 installation? You could try to reinstall win7 again. Or, if you have any full version of win or linux which was working before, you could also try to reinstall its bootloader (grub for linux, bootmgr/ntldr for windows). There are many step-by-step procedures available on the net. Regards, Gokul Das On Dec 28, 10:08 pm, Mathew mathewroy...@gmail.com wrote: Hi all, I was trying to reinstall a DELL laptop completely. I partitioned the HDD using Gparted. And I proceeded to install windows 7 in a NTFS partition I created. The installation hung up when I tried to delete a partition, I previously created. So I forced shutdown the lap. And on restarting it simply doesn’t boot from any device at all. All it shows is a blank screen with cursor blinking at top-left corner of the screen. The BIOS works fine, I tried changing the boot order and everything. But every time I try to boot, it shows the screen with blinking cursor. Can anyone please tell me how to solve this?

Re: [fsug-tvm] Unable to boot from any device... Please help
I am sorry if what I said is confusing,. Well what I meant was, after the win7 installation messed up. I was unable to boot from HDD, pendrive, or CD. When I tried to boot, the POST checking does pass, but after that, all I can see is a blinking cursor and nothing else. Nothing works in that black screen. In short, there was no way I could boot. But somehow it was related to the corrupted partition table of HDD. And upon removing HDD from the laptop, I am able to boot from pen drive, and cd. Yes, I tried reconnecting the HDD, and it was a fail. regards, Mathew Roy On 4 January 2013 21:54, Kurian John dtl...@gmail.com wrote: On 01/01/2013 04:35 PM, Mathew Roy wrote: Thanks for the help.
