    Ok, I think we're confused, are you attempting to fix "BOOTMGR is missing" or are you wiping everything and reinstalling windows, I thing everyones confused here

    Yes, I know that much.

    We don't know what that 500mb iso is. Might be one the things Mahmoud is selling. If so, they are Linux, but they do have some repair functions not too dissimilar from those found in winre.

    On a Mac?
    I think you need to use Boot Camp Assistant

    Could be a linux based iso for repairing windows?
    They have a mac and are trying to repair a Windows PC, the 500mb is the size of the ISO that they're using to fix BOOTMGR is missing :)

    I was wondering if Easy Recovery Essential actually worked or not, I was a bit sketchy when i saw that -- That was a while ago tho

    Hey all...sorry I have been MIA. So, success! I have fixed my PC!

    So everyone is on the same page: I was getting the Bootmgr error on startup. I no longer have the recovery disc, so I had to download the .ios file onto a USB (I didn't have a blank disc) using Bootcamp Assistant on my Mac. I plugged in the drive onto my PC and had it boot from there. The start up repair selection wasn't fixing my problem, so I had to type in these commands on the cmd prompt:

    bootrec.exe /fixmbr
    bootrec.exe /fixboot (may return an ‘Eliment not found’ message)
    bootrec.exe /RebuildBcd


    I restarted my computer, and TADA! It started up just fine! If anyone was interested, here's the link I used to download the .ios recovery file: Windows 7 Recovery Environment ISO - Fix Your Problems


    I hope this is able to help anyone else having this issue! Thanks to all for your patience and guidance! :]
