  1. Internal hard-drive is completely fine.
  2. My Windows 8.1 don't reboot, it shows error that system32/winload is missing.
  3. When I try to install windows on other primary hard-drive (D:/), It completes steps of Installation but again displays error after reboot. (When PC reboots start Windows setup)
  4. I tried to install Windows 7, 8.1
  5. No Refresh, Reset or any other troubleshoot method is working (even with command prompt it only states that no windows is found, however when you choose to boot into other OS, It lists 6 Windows OS which somehow is the number of attempts on windows installation I did)
  6. Doesn't work even with recovery tools.
  7. I know internal hard-drive is fine because I can see my data when I try to recover it using "Disk Management Recovery" by Windows.

But I can't recover it . Please help, I don't know elsewhere to go. And there are no tech shops near my home within miles.

Thanks!

Why this question is not a duplicate:

I am asking to recover data from a non-bootable windows. My hard-drive is absolutely fine. The data as I said, is not lost and is there. This is not a mechanical failure.

Like @Rees said.

You can install a fresh OS. Shouldve thought about that too. Another thing is if you do not want to install a fresh OS you can do the Following.

1. Install a Fresh OS and the old Windows will be on the C Drive in a folder named. Windows.old

Other Idea.

Depending on the situation you can do the following.

2. Boot into a live cd and mount a USB or External drive and backup the data you want to keep.

This is handy in situations where you need to copy files from one disc to another. Or you want to be safe and have it backed up just in case the windows install does not work.
