    "BootMGR is Missing" after restore Factory Settings attempt


    I've use the return to factory settings function before without any problems so I tried it on a different computer (on an Acer Windows 7 laptop) but for some reason this time, 5-10 minutes in, something failed and it restarted itself and it says BOOTMGR is missing Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart. I'm not sure if it came with an installation disc, I don't think it did, but either way I don't have one.

    I tried making a System Repair Disc with a working computer to boot from but I can't seem to get it to be of any use. In the System Recovery Options window under Operating System nothing is listed. I think I really fracked it up. I would greatly appreciated some help here. Thanks.

    Once you do what ?

    Run it again, see if it installs this time.

    Run the disc again. I thought that's what you meant.

    Are you running a disc from a different PC manufacturer or are you running it from the recovery partition of the pc you are working on ?

    Same thing happened. I don't think there's anything there to install.

    I meant run the factory recovery again, not to keep running the repair disc.

    You did say you ran factory recovery on this pc and you botched it, correct ?
