    My computer automatically restarts on the "Starting Windows" screen.

    Here's what happened:
    I ran WAT Fix but then I ended the process. So I ran another instance of WAT fix. Then it automatically restarted my computer.
    Then an error saying that ntkrnlmp.exe is corrupt or missing kernels comes up.
    So I run startup repair from my windows 7 repairs cd and it repairs the ntkrnlmp.exe.
    The error message is gone but now my computer just reboots after the "Starting Windows" screen.
    I have tried running the boot sect through the cmd. But still it doesn't work.
    Please help!

    Try the following commands from recovery console:

    Code:
    bootrec /fixmbr
    and then:
    Code:
    bootrec /fixboot
    If it doesn't work try:

    Code:
    bootsect /nt60 C:\
    - this command will make drive C: bootable again. ;)

    The only command that might work is the one documented in the thread.

    Code:
    c:
    undo
    You may need to change c: to a different drive letter e.g. d: or e:

    The one thing WAT Fix warns you not to do is close the application while it's running. It even removes the close button and ignores all exit events for that reason.
