Repair Corrupt Install From Boot Install DVD?
I have a flaky hard drive I think. A seagate barracuda. Wouldn't be the first one.
So I've had repeated problems with my win10 install and i've run disk check and whatever but they're still there.
And today I can't boot into it. I just circle around to Preparing Automatic Repair again and again.
So have a boot win10 dvd and I tried it - trying it now - but it doesn't seem to have any repair options. Or it did have a repair option but in the end it just brought me back to the same place.
What's the best way for me to go about this? I thought there might be a system checker that would just check/replace all the boot files but I don't see it.
I'm not worried about data as such. I can rescue that off the disk I suppose. But the software suite I have on there is pretty extensive. Lots of apps. Hate to have to rebuild all of that.
But realistically is that what I'm going to have to do?
