Unfortunately, after attempting all of these steps, I was still unsuccessful in getting Windows to boot. When trying step 3, I received an ‘access denied’ after running bootrec /fixboot. Even the last resort, reseting the PC, fails.

This problem seems to have occurred when I tried booting from an old laptop hard drive that I hooked up to my PC. While booting, chkdsk did a scan on both the laptop drive as well as my PC’s main drive and in the process altered something so that I could no longer boot again from the main drive. I looked up the error code I receive when Windows tries to do a recovery: The directory name is invalid.

Any thoughts on how to further troubleshoot this would be greatly appreciated.
