Question How to fix bootmgr

[Flyingkiwidude]

Please help!

Replaced my damaged mobo with the exact same model after I bent the CPU pins. 😥

I now get the famous bootmgr is missing, blah blah blah error.

Have unplugged all my hard drives except the ssd I have Windows 7 on. Have also tried a couple of different cables.

No joy.

I think I then get the error that no operating system found.

When I try to use the repair thing using the system disc, the computer does not bring up an operating system to select from.

I don't want to have to reinstall windows.

Its happened before and I think I used software on a USB drive to repair it, but can't remember why it was.

Have depression and this thing is driving me NUTS! 😥😥😥😥😥

PS: I have a shuttle computer and external HDD hub so I can do whatever with it if needed.

God bless.

Hey man, sad to hear you're having these issues and no one has answered yet..!

I hope the software you're looking for is Hiren's Boot, as I've used it before to fix the same problem. I'd make your USB drive again, they've also made an ISO installer ISO2USB, which seems ridiculously straightforward but I haven't used it personally. Rufus could also do the trick.

I hope you have already fixed it and don't even need this post whatsoever, but if you haven't and need more help, lemme know!

Plug in all the drives and see if it boots up. IF you had any one of then plugged in when you installed W7 to the SSD then the boot files were probably written to it.
I would also reset the bio and then check the bios Sata port settings. Normally you want to have them set for AHCI. Having them set wrong could give you the error you're seeing. Make any other changes you remember you had done when you installed W7 to it the first time.

How did you bend the pins on a system you already had W7 running on?
