Resolution
A bootable USB or DVD with Windows 7 or higher is needed to bring up the Command Prompt. If you dont have a bootable media available,
you can obtain one by following the create installation media steps found here.
Bring up the command prompt:
1. Boot from any DVD or USB Windows 7, 8, or 10 media.
2. Once you have reached the Windows Setup screen where you select the Language, Time and Keyboard settings, press the SHIFT + F10
keys to bring up the Command Prompt.
Find out whether your disk is set to GUID Partition Table (GPT) or Master Boot Record (MBR):
1. In the Command Prompt, type diskpartand press Enter.
2. Type list disk and press Enter.
3. Look for your disk and see if the GPT column has an asterisk * this will indicate the disk is GPT. If no asterisk is found, then the disk is
set as MBR.
4. Type exit and press Enter.
If the type is MBR:
1. From the Command Prompt, type dir a: and press Enter.
a. If drive A: is found and a directory is displayed, check for the \Windows folder in the directory. If it is there, that is the System
Drive. Skip to step 2.
b. If the drive is not found or it doesnt contain the \Windows folder, type dir b: and press Enter. Continue through the alphabet until
the drive with the \Windows folder is found, but skip the X: drive. That will be the install files from the USB or DVD you are using.
The most common location is the C: drive, so that example will be used in the rest of the article.
2. Once it is found, type:bcdboot C:\Windows /S C:
a. In this case, C is the drive where Windows folder was found. If the Windows folder is on a different drive, use that drive letter
