ran malwarebytes, everything was fine. ran cameleon, the second i hit the icon i got the blue screen.

 

tried to restart and got an error code 0xc000007b windows\system32\ntoskrnl.exe corrupt or missing.

Try to turn the computer off and leave it powered off for a couple minutes.  Then start it up and try to see if you can get it running now or not.

i don't know how to edit my post but i'm sorry if this is in the wrong subforum.

 been turning it on and off all day, i must have cycled the power at least 20plus times.

Can you get into any of the startup screens?

[hybriddna]

none, only the error screen. can't even start up in any of the 9 safe modes offered by windows 8.

I'm guessing you also don't have the install DVD.  Without being able to get into any options and if you don't have the install DVD then about your only other option is to take the computer into a local repair shop and see if they can get you going again.

i do have the install disk. i have tried all of the repair options that the disk offers and still it won't fill in the blank. about the only one i have not really gotten into is the comand prompt. i did read that some have had success with it but everything i found on the internet starts off strong and gets vague fast because most of it revolves around xp. There are some for windows 8 but they are not the exact same error code that i was given, close, but not exact.

Please try the following and see if you can refresh your system or not.

 

How to Boot to the "System Recovery Options" in Windows 8

 

Refresh your PC

i have tried all of the repair options as i stated above,

 

refresh pc - tried to refresh the pc and it tells me there where problems refreshing and nothing was changed.

 

automatic repair - tried and was told that it could not be done

 

system restore - tried and did not have a restore point saved.

 

system image recovery - no image was saved so nothing could be done

 

i am trying to avoid resetting my computer because i do not want all of my files erased. i may try to reinstall windows8

 

like i'm upgrading to see if it will let me keep my files but i'm unsure where the point of no return is for my files.

You may want to use a Linux disk to boot from to see about copying your data to a USB drive or slaving the drive to another computer to get to your data before going full reinstall.
