I have Windows7(32 bit) and Linux mint 16(64 bit) dual boot computer. Windows 7 boots but stops at the black screen. But I can boot normally from mint and can access windows7 files through mint . Now to repair I have done following process:
(i)Start up repair: It could not found any problem.
(ii)ctr+alt+delete or ctr+alt+esc also didn't show up task manager
(iii)Bootrec.exe using command prompt: and then all the things that people suggest to do. But unfortunately that destroyed grub menu. But I recovered that grub menu using "Try Ubuntu" and then installing "boot repair". Now I can again access my computer using linux mint.
(iv)regedit using command prompt: I have done all things to change something to explorer.exe
(v) tapping shift buttons for more than five times. But that also didn't show up any thing.
None of the above method could solve the problem. I don't know whether there is any other methods to try. If any one suggests some other method I will try. If there is no other method to try, I want to back up all my installed software in C drive to mint or some external hard disk and then restore it after "custom" re-installation of windows7 . Don't bother about normal files in C drive as I can simply "cut and paste" those form windows 7 to linux mint.
Thanks in advance.
