    so recently my windows machine had a system update and i lost power during the update. Now my cpu boots with repairing HD and gets stuck at 3-9% for the past 4 days, did a few restarts and booted in safe mode etc. still no dice.

    i guess the only option is a hd repair disk or a windows repair disk?

    • Ya that happened to me once.
      End up reinstalling the OS and copy over whatever was on the Harddrive.

    • pockets: HDD smart detail reports any errors? (if not don't touch the partition) This is a windows update failure and something gets stuck.

    • can you boot up a restore point or just the safe mode?

    • 3-9% for how long, if you have tons of files on a big partition it can take up to 40-60 mins to check. can you share a screenshot?
