          Which is the blue screen error code you see?. To have a chance of repair first thing you should do is search for its meaning and/or a known resolution about that specific error code on Google/Microsoft.

          To recover your files instead of trying to repair the boot step failure, one thing that probably you could do is insert an ISO containing a Windows installation to perform a reinstallation of your OS in the virtual machine (ensure in BIOS that the CD-Rom boots before the HDD), this way your files from the corrupted installation will be kept in a new folder named "C:Windows.old".



          To do a clean installation and also preserve your current files in "C:Windows.old", remember to select the "Custom" install mode:
