I had Windows 8 (Single language) pre-installed on my new laptop ... and it has lags..i tried to make refresh or reset and it told me that (The driver is locked)
So i managed to make a clean install of windows 8 ... and when i proceed to click custom install .. ( I didn't find any partition in the list )
even automatic repair didn't work ... and it didn't find my restore points (as it didn't find the partitions.)
Now i can't boot in the system it gives me (BSOD)
File: \BCD Status: 0xc0000098 info: The boot configuration data file doesn't contain valid information for an operating system.
I've tried to overcome this using rescue boot cds but it doesn't find any partition drivers.
I tried from USB too and it did the same.
I tried to write the BCD files from scratch .. as it mentioned here
https://neosmart.net/wiki/recovering-windows-bootloader/
but after restart nothing happened .. after that i found that it thought the usb is my partition (as it didn't recognise my partitions) it considered the usb as my C driver
I made every thing ... tried to make the partitions active through CMD .. But it didn't find the hard disc.
I managed to repair the boot problem using Easy Recovery Essentials Pro for windows 8 ..
and I made backup of my files ...
but after the boot ... it gives me a blue screen that my pc ran into a problem and needs to restart ..
aftr restart .. it tells me there is no boot device !!
Any suggestions ??

Thank You Guys ... the Easy Recovery Essentials Pro for windows 8 did the job.
I used the Gparted utility and flaged C (OS) as boot ... then i run automatic repair from the same disk ...
I rebooted then it goes for a long boot process ... so I terminated it and then booted the cd again and .. unflaged the C ... made Automatic Repair .. and rebooted ..
and every thing goes well ...
Thank You ..
