what is the first file used in the boot process of windows vista?
windows search
in this article, unless otherwise specified, what is said about "windows vista" also applies to all later nt operating systems. for windows vista, the boot sector or uefi loads the windows boot manager (a file named bootmgr on either the system or the boot partition), accesses the boot configuration data store and uses the information to load the operating system. then, the bcd invokes the boot loader and in turn proceeds to initiate the windows kernel. initialization at this point proceeds similarly to previous windows nt versions.

windows nt 6 startup process
windows vista, windows 7, and windows 8 also display a black screen of death when the operating system cannot boot. this is usually due to a missing file. this also happens when the user enables file compression on all files and the operating system compresses. often the user must reinstall windows, if the missing file is critical to the boot process. however, more often than not the boot screen will inform the user of the missing file. if the operating system is compressed, it will not be able to boot, even into safe mode. however, booting from another device and uncompressing the files will usually solve the issue.
