win7 clean install, boot mgr missing. hd already formatted. ran before
i upgraded to 4g of ram about 6 months ago so i purchased win7 ultimate to install the 64 bit operating system. i installed it with no problems over xp media center 32 bit. just had to update an audio driver. ran it fine for last 6 months. someone suggested doing a clean install every 6 months or so. i ran the 64 bit disk and reformatted and deleted the hd. didnt back it up. figured i had the disk. mistake on my part.. it runs at 0% and say file missing or corrupt. went thru the bios no luck. on 1 ocaision i set to fail safe and it reached 36% and same warning. ive tried installing drivers i downloaded onto a flash drive it wont set them up. tried bootsec commands. heard of nlite havent tried it, as nothing gets loaded off of flash drive. can see the files but nothing happens. from what i can understand i need the driver that writes to the hd. i tried taking out some ram didnt work. all hardware is fine. i am quite savy with internet software firefox etc. but this problem is quite new to me and i could really use some help, if you could get back to me with some ideas it would be greatly appreciated. thanks. Sean.
