Bsod after hfs+ paragon driver install, "inaccessible boot device"

Bsod after installing paragon hfs4win driver. Wont boot into any mode, including safe mode. Only have the troubleshoot menu and the command prompt. Unfortunately i cant restore my system either. i get an error about 15 minutes after i start that process saying the reset/restore cannot complete.

I have tried restoring using an old reset point, resetting with keeping files, and doing a complete reset, all With same error.

I located the hfs4win.exe file in the command prompt at c:windows/prefetch, but cant figure out how to uninstall it from there. Any ideas on what i can try next?

Apologies for not having system specs available, cant produce a zip file at the moment.

Ok, this started on a completely normally functioning laptop with no prior problems, with only a few programs on it, immediately after installing the paragon driver hfs4win. This problem appears to be identical to a prior thread with this problem, but i cant even reset the system.

step 1: tried booting in both ahci and ide, which were the two choices, no change.

Step 2: boot sequence seems fine, no changes.

step 3: chkdsk = "windows has checked the file system and found problems." Ran chkdsk/f get error, "cannot run disk checking on this volume because it is write protected." Ran chkdsk c: /f/r/x with no change.

step 4: msconfig gives error, nothing happens, unable to boot into safe mode.

step 5: working on it.

Step 6: working on it.

step 7: working on it.

Paragon is known for making buggy software, just use HFSExplorer. I had this issue happen to me before.

If you have a installation DVD/USB stick lying around, try do a clean install.
