Partition expansion gone wrong
I have just tried to expand my main win8 partition. All went well until a power cut in my area. Anyway, windows booted fine, but I decided to run chkdsk.When I rebooted, it tried to boot both of my windows 8 and 8.1 installations!!! I literally saw 2 windows logos on top of each other. Now nothing works. All i get when I select my OS (when i dont get bsod), is a blank screen. I notice if I put my pc to sleep and wake it up, my mouse appears, but nothing else.
