A boot manager error occurred during a Ghost clone job
A number of possibilities with this. Ghost quit during one of my standard disk to disk clones..
Chkdsk run first etc. But the weather is flaky and there might have been an undetectable power outage or hiccup. Sorry, I don't have the Ghost error-- something about a text file note found.
The disk then was unusable even as a data drive to run a new format. I have good backups to a degree, but this bootmgr failure was incurable without reinstalling Win7 from my cd. That's running now.
My question is: is there a bootable cd to get around a bootmgr failure? Hirens? Anything else just to get the disk to the point where I can overwrite it such as low level format then run as admin for the ntfs.
One other thing: An error showed bad blocks found -- just all of a sudden during this failure.
Windows repair never accomplished anything on this. I don't know if there's a bootable cd that could restore mbr. Please don't mention anything about Windows repair disk. That is useless. I have never used the repair cd once where the error did not come back: contact the manufacturer or whatever.
WinXP had a usable repair routine which I had used many times.
In sum a power outage may have made a corrupt run of Ghost which was unrecoverable.
