After playing around with partitions, I've added unallocated space from partition1 into partition2, restarted computer and boom BOOTMGR is missing, after that i have googled some methods to fixboot via the windows 7 live boot cd. Bootrec.exe /RebuildBcd and fixboot. After that i restart and i get the system32\Winload.exe error.
I then tried rebuildBcd again, and this time windows wouldnt load at all (Also the startup repair cannot fix this issue). I then loaded windows 7 cd and now it doesnt show a single partition. Obviously the problem here is the partition but i've already tried everything off of google to fix the partition, i even tried the Partition Wizard from minitools it searched for 3 hours for corrupt partition and found nothing. Any help appreciated
thanks.

Yeah well you hosed the system by fooling around with the partitions. some things are better left alone.

Someone else may post with a way to fix it but if it were me I would Wipe the drive and reinstall fresh and clean. Actually what I would do is Re0Image the drive with the backup image I make on a weekly basis.

Well i didn't actually mess around, i posted yesterday about my partitions. All went well according to the advice given to me but it crashed my partitions. All the data should be on the partition still i believe but its just gone. Are there any partition recovery tools i can boot with? or is there another method i dont know about.

I followed your previous post in the other thread yesterday. Which makes me think that edwar has the answer in his post #2.
Have a nice day.

Do you see your hard drive in the bios ?

You can`t and didn`t have unallocated space on partition 1.

Unallocated space means unallocated, empty space not yet partitioned.

Drop in your PW boot cd, what does it show?
