BOOTMGR is missing

[omarashead]

So, i have formated C drive because of errors and now when i start PC it says BOOTMGR is missing, press CTRL ALT DEL to restart. So i cant install Win 7 from CDROM. Does this mean that i've removed bios? ( i can acess bios settings, Qflash etc.)

try changing your boot order to boot from CD first. If that works install windows and then change your boot order back to your boot drive as #1 in order after you are up in running.

BIOS is chip on your motherboard your formatting drive C has no effect on it. You can try to reinstall the O/S from your CDROM however is sounds like your hard drive dying I'd get an new hard drive and install your O/S on it.

it means windows didnt find a bootable device

either as suggested change boot order in the bios to cd/dvd

or press the appropriate F key during startup and change boot order

your previous errors may only have been file system errors so i wouldnt rush to buy a new hard drive

I have set order that the first is CDrom. Still shows BOOMGR missing ( by the way. windows was on C: so i don't have windows).

if cd/dvd is first boot then its not reading your disc

 

[omarashead]

I've tried another discs and it didn't read them ( even before i formated c drive )

 

[mcnumpty23]

sounds like you need a new dvd drive

Do you have a windows installation disk in you CD Rom? If you can't read your CD Rom or your hard drive your motherboard may have a problem.

in windows it did normally read cds. the motherboard may be the problem. Someone told me that it is a virus and i have downloaded some stuff before the problem started ( if you want to know what problem i had, read my previous thread. it could be connected. )
