MBR Missing, but no operating system to choose when I try to repair
So last night I was listening to iTunes when all of a sudden my music stopped and the hard drive light stayed on steadily. I decided to reboot the computer, and lo and behold when the BIOS splash screen went away, it said the "master boot record missing, press ctrl + alt + del to reboot" or something to that effect.
I quickly looked up how to repair this, and it seems like the Windows 7 installation disc is really good about repairing problems nowadays, so I gave that a shot after following instructions on some website. I hit "repair my computer" and then I tried to choose an operating system, but there were none in the list! How can I get my operating system to show up so I can choose to repair it using the installation disc?
