Windows 7 Unbootable Post Black Screen and Flashing Cursor

A Windows 7 based system becomes unbootable when its booting process halts caused by corruption in boot loader, invalid device driver update, system file damage, kernel panic, as well as other similar reasons. Generally of the unbootable system, the owner encounters a BSOD (Blue Screen Of Death), black/blue screen with flashing cursor, or a 'startup repair' failure error message. In either of the above outcomes, data saved in Windows 7 based hard drive becomes inaccessible. To gain access to the data in such situations, Windows user needs to restore data from an updated backup.

However, if the backup disappoints you and restores incomplete data, then you will need to use an efficient third-party Data Recovery Software to recover lost data. Below can be a such scenario that explains Windows 7 unbootability condition in detail.

Suppose you've got a dual-boot system with Windows Server 2008 and Windows 7 operating system (on primary partition) installed. You installed some driver updates in Windows Server 2008 and restart your system. However, to your surprise, when you reboot your system, you encounter a black screen with flashing cursor. The black screen appears each time you try to boot your system. Since the system is can not bypass the black screen, the data trapped in both Windows Server 2008 and Windows 7 based partitions becomes inaccessible.

However, if all the three resolutions don't resolve the issue, you will need to reinstall the operating system and restore data from a current backup. However, in case of no backup, you will need to recoup data using commercial Data Recovery utility. Such data recovery tools use effective recovery processes to recoup data after almost all logical data loss scenarios.

Hodo Windows Data Recovery is a third-party data recovery software that recovers data from formatted Windows 7, Vista, XP, 2003, and 2000 based hard disks.
