"BOOTMGR is Missing"

You said you had the Windows 7 stored on a USB drive, therefore you can burn the OS onto a DVD using a different computer if available.

Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7

The first few steps will allow you boot from the USB drive, and then perform a Repair Install.

Hope this helps,

Harry

thanks!

Why do a reinstall?? Just the bootmgr and bootmenu are gone! startup repair 3 times and all is fine again

The first steps within the tutorial showed how to burn the .ISO file (if the USB drive was not bootable) to a DVD, so they could access the startup menu to perform a Startup Repair.

PS: i don't have my windows 7 installer anymore since the CD broke. though I have copy in a USB.

Is that usb drive bootable? Or is it just an ISO file on usb disk?

just an iso file

Follow these steps for Troubleshooting Windows 7 Failure to Start.

The installer is provided in Step 5 along with tool to burn to DVD or write to bootable flash stick.

hi! is it possible to get an iso file without downloading and without needing a DVD? i only have a netbook with no dvd drive

You will need to download the .ISO file of Windows 7, and follow Step 5 within the tutorial for which Greg provided you with:

Troubleshooting Windows 7 Failure to Boot

It is possible to boot from a .ISO file, however this option is not available for your system, as your boot manager has been deleted/corrupted.
