How to do that?

If you did the chkdsk with all the options and sfc /scannow and it's still not booting, it's probably not going to get fixed. The next step would be backup all the data and reinstall windows.

But did you do those things and then try to see if it will boot? I don't understand spanish so I don't know what it is saying.

If you have a usb drive that you don't mind formatting (you'll lose all data on it) try this https://www.hirensbootcd.org/download/





Hirens has the MbrFix tool.
example:

C:> MbrFix /drive 0 fixmbr /yes

MBRtool is also on the Hirens disc


There's several things you can try on this reddit page, that's all I got for you

Sometimes after a fresh OS install/update ,some attached hardware will be disabled due to not having the correct drivers for that OS. Just run a windows update to see if it fixes the problem of track down the driver manually

I hate this phrase, but, "That changes it all".

Now it might not be a hard drive damage, but an issue with drivers.

Under Advanced Options, try restarting in Safe Mode and choose to enable boot logging. So we can heck if a driver is causing the problem, then restart the PC.

A ntbtlog.txt will be created on C: drive, which you can access using the command prompt.

You can't, other than reinstall Windows and start fresh.

Is there a lot of important files on his computer?

I think so

 

[Jayinem]

I think so

3 choices

Follow my previous post about Hiren boot using a usb (if you have one, or buy one) see if you can fix the bootmbr

Give up and reinstall windows

Take it to a computer repair person, but they may end up having to do a system reset anyway

 

[CMDreamer]

I think so

Then do a backup as already mentioned.

For doing that, you need another PC and detach the hard drive and connect it, then do the backup.

Or download a Live OS to boot into it using the failing PC and mount its hard drive to do a backup on another drive or flash drive.

 

[Jayinem]

Yeah with Hiren or one of those boot drives like that you can access your files, and back them up.

 

[linuxares]

Or Medicat instead of Hiren

If the computer has system restore points enabled, going back to a previous restore point might fix it if it was a driver issue that the wifi adapter caused. You can get the system restore options from windows automatic repair's advanced options. You don't need to be able to boot into safe mode.
