An unexpected I/O error has occured.File:\Boot\BCD

It's strange that you felt a need to defend Debleena's post from 2009, 5 years previous with 24 posts since complaining of the same issue and suggesting that the steps provided by this Microsoft person have failed to achieve an outcome. No further responses have been provided by Debleena or any other representative from Microsoft.

I had this same issue and fixed it way back in 2007. It has now occurred on another pc and I can't get the pc to boot from the Microsoft / Dell Recovery disk. The suggested steps provided by Debleena do not provide alternative solutions if you can't boot from a Recovery disk. I notice that you failed to provide constructive comments to assist anyone with this problem. Enough said.

They used to be more easily available on the net but they still seem to be here http://www.mydigitallife.info/official-windows-7-sp1-iso-from-digital-river/

(digital river is the official MS digital distributor) 

However, the easiest way if you have another working machine with a similar OS is to just make one yourself

Good luck!

So where would one acquire this free windows repair disc you speak of?

1. Berating someone for their answer when they are trying to be helpful doesn't accomplish anything. 
2. You should at least thoroughly READ the answer if you are going to critique it. It clearly instructs people to boot from  their installation disk  to make the bcd repairs. You could also download a free Windows repair disc and boot from that to repair a Windows installation even if you can't boot into Windows itself. 

Thank you Debleena for trying to help and outlining some useful steps (even if they won't work for everyone).

I have the same exact problem and don't know what to do. Any suggestions welcome. I keep pressing esc to clear or enter to continue but it comes back to the same screen.
