so, im gonna cut out all the crap that aint inportent and cut right to it...
I need to repair Windows 7 64bit, located on my ssd. When trying to boot i get "BOOTMGR is missing, press ctrl+alt+del to restart"
And heres the plot twist;
My installation cd (containing windows 7 64bit) "is not able to be booted from".
if you dident get that, i cant install or repair or boot with it (selecting the dvd works fine, it gets detected and all that stuff) from bios.
If you dident get that either, booting from the dvd just doesent work. Neither does installing from usb, as it acts the same as dvd. (it gets detected as a bootable device in bios, but isent able to be booted from)
Im not that incompetent, so just saying shanging the bootorder wont solve this. Ive tried that, and much, much more, but i cant seem to find a solution.
Booting and installing a cracked 32bit version of windows works fine though, which is wierd. So now i have a craked version of windows running on a old hard drive. Booting to that OS works fine, and from there i can start up the windows 7 setup. This however only allows me to make a fresh install on any drive, or upgrading my existing os i am currently running.
Now i ended up with a bunch of rattle anyway, but to summarize;
I need to repair windows 7 64 bit on my ssd. Using a dvd or usb with the setup files from bios wont work, and thats out of the question. On a separate disk i have a different windows 7, from here i can access the files and setup from the dvd/usb, and i can also access my ssd and all my files that drive. From the setup for windows on the dvd/usb, i can not repair my windows on on my ssd. I can only perform a fresh install on my ssd from the setup, meaning basicly formatting my ssd and loose all data. So thats also out of the question.
The "issue" is that i get bootmgr is missing when i try to boot windows on my ssd. How to fix this is what im looking for, because as far as i know the only way to fix this is to repair windows.
To sum it up even more;
I need to repair windows 7, without being able to boot from a setup drive of any kind. I have another OS on a separate drive, which i can use to access files on the dvd or on the ssd including the windows that i want to repair. Fresh install is not an option, as it removes my data from the ssd.
Repair windows 7 without booting from setup devices.
Any professional out there that know how to fix this? Goodle wasent much help because this doesent seem to be an issue for people, but for me it is, as booting from any kind of external device isent possible. But because windows isent compleatly screwed, but only bootmgr missing, i hope this issue is possible to fix even with the lack of boot repair.
Hope anyone understands the issue and knows how to fix it
Regards
