<p>Hello, I have a problem booting a new upgraded windows 7 from vista. It will not load the OS at all, it just stucks at a black screen with a blinking dash top-left.</p>
<p>bootrec /fixboot tells me (The volume does not contain a recognized file system.)
bcdedit shows me the following:</p>
<p>Windows boot loader</p>
<blockquote>
<p>identifier -- </p>
<p>device -- partition=C:</p>
<p>path -- \Windows\system32\winload.exe</p>
<p>description -- Windows 7 Ultimate</p>
<p>osdevice -- partition=C:</p>
<p>systemroot -- \Windows</p>

<pre>XCOPY C:\Users\[your_username] [destination] /S</pre>
<p>Where <code>[destination]</code> specifies where you'd like them copied, <code>F:\backup</code> for example.</p>
