I changed the front panel on my case and restarted with BOOTMGR missing
Booted up Win 7 disk, it cannot find my installation of windows, I tried the automatic startup fix, no luck.
I used the command prompt to try to manually fix the mbr, but I am having trouble.
I am using the information on this page:
http://neosmart.net/wiki/display/EBCD/Recovering+the+Vista+Bootloader+from+the+DVD
Upon trying to run the command
del C:\boot\bcd
it says it cannot find the file specified. C drive is what I had vista installed on. E:\ is my dvd drive as well. It won't let me run any of these commands either:
bcdedit /createstore c:\boot\bcd.temp
bcdedit.exe /store c:\boot\bcd.temp /create {bootmgr} /d "Windows Boot Manager"
bcdedit.exe /import c:\boot\bcd.temp
bcdedit.exe /set {bootmgr} device partition=C:
bcdedit.exe /timeout 10
del c:\boot\bcd.temp
I have no idea what the problem is. Can anyone help? All I did was change the front panel on my computer and now the entire thing is screwed!
