windows 7 PE disk error
I cant find anything similar in your forum.
I ran your partition assistant utility to get my windows 7 partition size shrunk.
It went through the process and it loaded its windows PE and we were on our way..
a way through the operation, a message appeared to say that a hard disk read error was en counted, and sorry they cannot continue.
This destroyed my windows disk and the ntfs was in a bad state.
Following various information I found all over the web, I did a chkdsk, sfc and a dism and have managed to get a system
together that tries to boot but does not succeed.
Ifinds the windows boot etc, I see the logo but then the screen goes blank, then black and the occational disk io happens forever ??!!
Can you please supply any tools and or information that may help me.
I am trying to recover without a re-installation and losing all apps !.
Many Thanks
Leo Murray

If you have not got your machine back up and running, I would do a System Restore back to the shrunk partition and see if that works. To shrink or resize a disk without doing a "system backup" first is suicidal.
