ok here is the output from the bcdedit OUTPUT.TXT the laptop came with windows 8, i updated it to windows 8.1 i folowed some forums and a few people had this issue after updating the bios with windows 8.1, basically the laptop wouldnt boot , and windows couldnt even do the automatic repair

Hy thanks for your reply. The f9 key doesn't work anymore. From asus I was told just press it when the asus logo appears on boot There was no on screen message before about the f9 key The laptop can boot into windows at the moment using a generic oem install If I assign a grove letter to the recovery partition I can see that there still is the data on there

anyone help?
