BOOTMGR is missing on reboot
Hello Sevenforums!
Here are my specs:
Radeon HD 6950
AMD 695 OC to 3.95Ghz
8GB of ram
1 Terabyte hard drive
I'm having a pretty bad issue today! I decided it was time to loose my old XP installation for extra space. So, I removed my XP installation with a tool which I believe was called partition magic (Installed on the computer that is not booting don't remember the exact name). After removing the installation, I expanded my windows 7 installation to be confronted with "BOOTMGR is missing" on restart. So, after all of this, I decided to attempt a system repair. I put in my installation disc and pressed repair system but oddly, I can't press next to continue with the repair. I'm given "This version of System Recovery Options is not compatible with the version of windows you are trying to repair. Try using a recovery disc that is compatible with this version of windows." I'm not sure what to do from here. I've looked around, googled and I found a similar issue but nothing has helped so far. Thanks for reading hopefully we can get this solved without wiping my Hard drive!
Is it possible that I could insert bootmgr into my windows installation from a usb or something?
Matt
