Here are the some of the symptoms;
1. Can't boot into Windows 8.1 on Dell XPS 8700.
2. OS Refresh fails.
3. OS Restore points fail.
4. OS Automatic repair fails.
5. Restart Options fail (i.e. Safe Mode, Boot debugging mode).
6. Command Prompt fails (can't find any administrator accounts).
Trying to avoid performing a factory restore due to loss of personal data. Hoping to boot using a USB flash drive and repair the boot partition issues. Any suggestions on the best way to obtain the necessary boot software and repair utilities would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
