hard drive problem Anonymous 2017-04-23 07:50:20 Post No. 60029618 [Report]

I do get a blue screen when booting up my windows laptop.
I used the USB Ubuntu boot to check if it was completely crashed but no.
I can still access all of my data via USB boot.
However when I want to run the windows or Ubuntu installer, there is no Hard drive to choose from. Hard drive list is completely empty.
I do find it under GParted, tho. sda2 with 500 is the "defect" drive.
What the hell? Any ideas how to fix this? Or is my HDD just fucked?

Create a Windows recovery disk and run start-up repair

Before you try anything I would back up my files to an external hard drive

yeah, I already did that. Not much data on that laptop anyway. Mostly used it for school and assignments.

Wiped HDD and installed Ubuntu, no problems.

This thread had a happy ending. I'm guessing the Hiber.sys file locked the filesystem of there were just some filesystem inconsistencies. A chckdisk or NTFS tools may have fixed it but going to Linux and nuking windows is always a good fix too.
