Recently I could not get my MSI laptop GS70 20D 295US to Boot to Windows after a failed Driver installation
Tried F3 for Recovey and got the error 0xc000000f Windows/System32/winload.efi missing or damaged
I then created the Windows 8.1 recovery USB and could boot and install Windows 8.1 with it. Then I just downloaded all my MSI drivers and reinstalled so all is working fine again
I previously never made a backup, my bad as I usually do all that on all my pc/notebooks etc.
MSI tech had asked me the same and I explained and sent pictures below. I am since ordering one, even though the method I used worked.
What I am wondering is why does it show Healthy Partitions and with Partition Guru it shows files. I just don't want to pay full price for that software when I am ordering the disk anyway.
Recovery in Windows 8.1 is greyed out so clearly it doesn't detect the Recovery Image.
Is there someway to restore the images and recreate or should I just delete all those partitions and regain space.
I basically understand hard drives, types, partitions etc, but not advanced enough to do it with out screwing it up.
Thanks
UPDATE: I also ran Macrium Reflect and did an "Analyze File System" on all the partitions
Can I use this to Create an Image of the backup from the Partitions.
