Ok so i had a dualboot setup with windows 7 and ubuntu.
I decided to remove the ubuntu partition to install windows 8 instead.
I used Easybcd to change the bootloader from grub to windows 7 bootloader, and i then deleted the ubuntu partition. I also deleted my windows 7 recovery partition to gain some more space (which i now regret). I then needed to combine the unallocated spaces, so i used easeus partition master to move my C: drive all the way to the left, and have the 2 unallocated spaces beside each other so that they could be merged. When i applied the changes and the computer rebooted, i was presented with an error that said:
PXE-E61 : media test failure check cable
PXE-M0F : Exiting PXE ROM
Insert bootable media and press any key to continue
It also said something to do with my network card, which im guessing means that it has not found any bootable os on my hdd so it is booting from network as a last resort.
Please help! I would like to now if it will be possible the get my os running again, or if i will have to reinstall windows, or even if my hdd is so destroyed to the point that i cant install an os.
Thanks, any help is greatly appreciated
