BOOTMGR is missing? Recovery not reading?
Hi all,
Recently a colleague of mine has unplugged their PC without shutting down first, they were at first unable to repair their PC and get back to Windows. They then formatted their hard drive and recovery partition. They then began to receive the "BOOTMGR is missing Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart" screen. I have begun working on their computer and have been unable to get it to work. I have gone into the BIOS and disabled all booting options except DVD/CD. When I put in the Windows 7 recovery disc, it says "Disk boot failure, Insert disk and press enter." I have looked at the recovery disc, which is new, and looking at the files on it there were bootmgr, boot < boot.sdi, bcd, bootfix.bin, and sources < boot.wim. I have a little bit of computer experience, but this seems to be too much for me to trial and error out.
In short, its not booting up from disc, and fails to read the windows 7 recovery DVD. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks.
