"BOOTMGR missing" after upgrading Windows 7 Home Premium to Ultimate
Hello Sevenforums,
This is my first post so please tell me if I do anything wrong. After using Windows Anytime Upgrade to upgrade my Windows 7 Home Premium to Ultimate and restarting, I get the "BOOTMGR missing error". Interestingly, if I shut down the laptop at this screen and turn it on, it loads the OS selection screen perfectly (Windows 7 and Ubuntu 11.10 dualboot).
I've tried the "repair windows" function, running the startup problems fixer, but to no luck.
Below is what came out from bcdedit:

I noticed there isn't even a path listed for the boot manager. I am moderately computer savvy (I know some bare bones basic coding in linux and dos) but I have absolutley no idea what to do.
