Windows 7 System Files Damage - Computer Reboots at Startup, Safe Mode Inaccessible

Best answers

How can I fix a Windows 7 PC that reboots at the “Windows is starting up” screen and won’t enter Safe Mode or Startup Repair?

You likely cannot repair this installation; the recommended fix is to reinstall Windows 7 because the system was installed on another computer and will not boot properly on this one [#16296004][#16293901] If the disk came from a laptop, moving it to a different PC can prevent the system from starting, even if Safe Mode and repair also fail [#16294736] Switching IDE/AHCI is not the real solution here, especially if the motherboard does not support AHCI [#16294736] If you need important files, connect the disk to another computer with a USB adapter or boot another system from USB and copy the data off the drive [#16294148][#16294810]

    Hi. I have a problem namely when starting Windows 7 when the message "Windows is starting up" appears, the computer resets, it is impossible to turn on safe mode or restore to the last known configuration the same happens. I tried to fix using the Windows 7 tile but the repair did nothing. You can exclude that the hardware is damaged because another disk is working, I suspect that something is damaged in the system files. I tried from the command line sfc command. I would ask for help

    You can switch and check.

    You can connect the disk to another computer and save important data or even boot any system from usb and use it to rip data from the disk to another medium.

    And how to switch it in the bios because I can't do it too much, I prefer to get a little tired myself for sure, it will give me more knowledge about it. After enabling the option of not starting the system, the following bluescreen is displayed after an error:

    I have Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit, Gigabyte GA-M61SME-S2 motherboard, AMD 2GHz processor, 2 GB RAM memory. Unfortunately, I found out that my motherboard does not support ACHI mode.

    And what does this have to do with the problem? And since it doesn't support, why does the board manufacturer give AHCI drivers?

    If the system was also from this laptop, there is no chance to run it on this PC.

    Why because there are no drivers loaded on this PC what does it consist of? And the drivers are on ACHI, I did not notice where in the FAQ it said that there is no CD, there is no ACHI support: /

    Is there a way to upload the drivers themselves then should Windows work? Indeed the drivers are for ACHI only that there is none for my Windows 7 32 bit

    The only way I know is to remove all possible drivers and turn off the system before removing the disk (in this case from the laptop).
    After transferring the disk to another computer, this one should detect the deficiencies and install the appropriate drivers.

    I will not help in this matter.
    Installation of Windows 7 takes up to an hour - you will lose more time on the laborious search for responsible files.

    Can you focus on this error? I think that in safe mode it should start without drivers and it does the same, i.e. it resets. At most, it's about ACHI mode

    @Arekadiuszby for what? The problem is that the author has installed the system on another computer and is now trying to run it on this. That's why it doesn't work.

    You must reinstall the system.

    There is no way to upload drivers from a new computer somehow so that this system can work on a new computer?
