• Windows Vista error - first of all 'Operting System' could not be found and now "BOOTMGR is missing?

  Hello

  I am using Toshiba Satellite M300 loaded with Win Vista 32 bit form three last year, but today, when I take my laptop from sleep mode, take a lot of time to resume and then hanged. So, I decided to put it off and start it again. On the Welcome screen. It displays the message "The operating system not found" and also began a sound whenever I press any key.

  Then I inserted win Vista DVD for system recovery and it does well and confirm to reboot the computer. Turning it back on, it still shows the same message. I repeated this action 3 times and got the same message. I generally save my data on an external hard drive that I decided to delete all data on the thought of portable hard drive of some viruses has blocked the operating system back if I use AVG 2011 to protect my local data.

  Finally, after a few hours of the deletion of all data on the drive and I finally again restart the laptop with another error message, but this time, it is "BOOTMGR is missing" and that little gob smacking me. I think I've also cleaned the win vista my drive or not... but I confused now and looking for suggestions to move me to the right path.

  Thanks in advance.

• BOOTMGR is missing, press Ctrl + Alt + Delete while trying to install Windows Vista Home Premium 64 - Bit

  Now that I got my 64-bit Vista in the mail and quickly install disc he jumped in my DVD player. The installation process went well until I was asked to choose which hard drive, I tried to install Vista on. I tried to format my hard drive to this screen, I was working with Vista 32 bit before that and saw no need to divide my two work machine with two separate versions of the same operating system. After formatting the hard drive, I have been unable to click on the 'next' button and engage the next step of the installation process. There was a message is displayed to the bottom of the window, as well tell a word about the installation of a machine already running windows. I would be happy to provide further information to the topic of my problems during this step, but my problems do not stop here.

  After you notice the message described above and do not get farther in attempts to install later, I decided to try to reinstall the 32-bit version of Vista and then maybe try to upgrade to 64-bit. However when I put in the CD at retail, rather than receive messages at the start of a disc, I have met with the harsh reality of "BOOTMGR is missing Press Ctrl + Alt + Del to restart." Since then got trapped in a painful loop switching between disc 32-bit and the 64-bit disk in the hope that it would finally let me begin with him.

  In addition to this logically faulty tactics, I also searched some online solutions. I made sure that my DVD drive is first in my boot order. My computer will not yet make Flex and give me the ability to boot from a disk.

  My question is this; How can I get my computer let me boot from a disc again?

• BOOTMGR is missing Vista X 32

  Hi all

  My PC is running Windows Vista X 32. I have 2 drives installed with three partitions.

  Disk 0 = drive (C :) and road (e :)) (two partitions)))

  Disc 1 disc (d :)) =

  Drive (C :) = initialization, file of the Active Page, Crash Dump, primary Partition (as shown in the title of the computer management))

  Drive (d) = system, active, primary Partition (as shown in the title of the computer management)

  Drive (E :) = Primary Partition (as shown in the title of the computer management)

  Drive (C :) has EVERYTHING on it Windows, batch files stored.)

  Now that above drive (d) shows that the system (a single partition drive), this disc is empty and I want to replace it with a drive high capacity (currently sitting on my desk).  Not knowing any better I removed that drive and installed the new drive (woohoo additional storage space), but alas when I tried to start the PC, the message "bootmgr is missing" displayed.

  Using the bios, I changed the order in which readers were consulted to boot from the disk (c), it did not work.  The same error message appeared.  So I have since returned the old drive and changed the boot order in the bios to previous settings.

  I rechecked and the only file located on drive (D :) is 'BOOTSECT. BAK' there is no hidden files or folders.

  My question is how can I change my PC to recognize the drive (C :) as the system in order to remove and replace the drive (d :))?  If all else fails I end up with the formidable task of reinstalling Vista.

  Thanks in advance

  Struck dumb

  Hello

  Since D: has been nominated as player of the [System], you need to fix it by starting with the Vista disk and do a Startup Repair on C: to rewrite it. D: does not need to be reinstalled to do, nor is it important or not there is in fact nothing about it. Because he proceeds to this designation, the boot sequence stops when he cannot locate.

  If your system has been preinstalled and you do not have a disk, you can use something like this:http://neosmart.net/blog/2008/windows-vista-recovery-disc-download/

"the computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected error.  Windows Setup cannot continue. to install windows, click "ok" to restart the computer, and then restart the installation '

  I did and kept getting the bootmgr is missing message crossed the routines above several times always with the same results.  then, I got copies of the recovery cd and went through the process of using them with the same results.  I contacted hp and they say they can solve this problem for a fee because the laptop is no longer under warranty.  Think that if I obtained a copy of the cd vista Home premium and I tried the recovery that would solve the problem?  or would I be better just let hp fix?

  Once again, thank you Michel and Lorien you thoughts and input.

  Borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

• Satellite L510 - BOOTMGR is missing

  * sigh *.

  So I got my password solved error and managed to get on the Vista desktop for the first time.
  Well, he ran incredibly slow (like 45 minutes at startup). So I think that maybe something is corrupted so maybe I should just go ahead and reinstall everything from scratch.

  So, I hold the F8 key at startup, go into System Recovery Options and choose to do a restore complete system, back to the factory settings.
  2 minutes, I get an application error. The app makes me restart.

  Now I'm stuck with "BOOTMGR is missing" A + C + D to turn it back on to get to the same point.

  All I can find online is advice to enter the Installation of Vista disc. But I don't have one of those, I?

  * sigh *.

  This whole process would have been a million times easier if Toshiba had indeed issued an installation with the system disk.

  Anyone know how to get into WinRE on a Toshiba Sattelite?

  Hello

  You didn t get the Vista disc and the Toshiba recovery disc.
  Your laptop has been pre-installed with the Vista operating system and there was an option that allows you to recovery unit using the option of HARD drive recovery
  There was also a preinstalled tool called creator Toshiba recovery disc.
  This tool could be used to create a clean recovery disk.

  But the fact is that if you want to repair the Vista Boot Manager, so you should use ONLY the MS Vista original disc and not the recovery disc.
  MS Vista disc would repair the Boot Manager and the recovery disk would be to format the whole HARD drive and reinstall everything again

  That's the big difference.

• Compaq 6510 b: bootmgr is missing and I don't have a CD/USB

  Hello

  My HP Compaq 6510 b has been infected by the virus of defense crypto. I searched like crazy and could not find any solution and decided to sacrifice my photos and videos. But turned out even restore the laptop is not easily possible. AFAIK, the laptop is Vista but Windows 7, when I open it. So, after much research I found someone who said I should type collection in the area of research manager and allows to restore the laptop but unfortunately that does not exist in the laptop so I looked for something else and found out that by right-clicking on the computer that I can go to manage and then active partition and tried to restart. And then it happened, he showed "bootmgr is missing, press ctrl, alt and del to restart" so I did, but the same screen appears.

  I searched online again and said I need a cd of Vista or Windows 7, but I don't have that. They also said that it is the only way to fix the laptop. So now I'm out of options and hoping someone here can help me.

  Is there anyway I can fix this without the CD and restore my laptop to its original settings? Or can I restart my laptop without the bootmgr thing missing attachment?

  Really need help with this and your help will be greatly appreciated. Looking forward to the answers.

  Hello

  Try the following.

  If you do not, use another PC to create a rescue CD Windows 7.  Download the ISO relevant among the links below - if you are not sure, first try the 64 bit version.

  Windows 7 32 bit

  Windows 7 64 bit

  You must use an app like ImgBurn ( Note: you can deselect additional software during installation of ImgBurn options) to burn the ISO to a CD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write an ISO on a disc is here.

  When creating, type following the ESC key as soon as you start the launch of the laptop Boot Menu, and then insert the rescue CD.  Select boot options (usually f9 ), use the arrow keys to select the CD/DVD drive and press ENTER.  You can also get a prompt to "Press any key to" continuous - it if requested.

  Select the "Repair your computer" option and follow Option 2 in the guide on the link below to run the Startup Repair - you may need to run this 2 or 3 times.

  If the above does not help, take note of any error message you get during the procedure and include them with your next post.

• BOOTMGR is missing message on Satellite A205-S5812

  Well, I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite A205-S5812 and is having some problems.
  Whenever I turn it on I get a black screen with the words bootmgr is missing.

  Is there a way to fix this?

  Hello

  The bootmgr is missing + error because s Vista Boot Manager is found on the HARD disk.
  The boot manager could be a shame because of a few problems with your HARD disk.
  The part of the error message reads:
  > Problem Signature 06: BadDisk

  It is clear that there is a BadDisk and that's why I come to the conclusion that your HARD drive should malfunctions.

  I found your other thread that describes a problem of HARD drive:
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/message.jspa?MessageID=141608

  Well, I think you need to replace the HARD drive and then must use the Toshiba Recovery disk to reinstall the operating system.

• Satellite C660 - 10 d - Bootmgr is missing

  Hello

  I bought a Toshiba Satellite C660 - 10 d for my birthday in August and was a little disappointed to find that it did not include the Windows 7 disc - instead, I found a "Recovery" partition to use if there is a problem. Another disappointment was to find the 500 GB hard drive, I thought I was getting was actually about 360 GB - him remains apparently partitioned for "recovery."

  After a few months use, I decided to check the recovery option and found it was inaccessible (press F8 at startup just didn't work). Scouting around the ' net has found another option (I think it was something like ESC at boot 0 upwards), but that no longer works.

  I should have taken this "thing" back at the shop at the time, but it was a mile 10 return and an injury prevented me from driving. In any case, I decided to make my own backup with Acronis (which has been a life saver on my desktop PC).

  Main installation takes 3 DvDs and the "Recovery" partition went on another DvD. In hindsight, I should have backed up to a spare USB hard drive - it would have been faster.

  In any case, law of Sod, a few months later and I had to do a reinstall from the Acronis backup and, while everything seemed to install OK, now I just get the dreaded message BOOTMGR IS MISSING. Scanning of the hard drive shows that the installation of Windows is there, but it does not start.

  Scouting around the ' net came only upward with suggestions that involved using the installation disk that I had not been given. I don't understand the logic of backup 20 p for a DvD disc, containing a 140Gb (HSI) of a hard disk instead.

  I tried various other suggestions to fix the MBR (including the FDISK. EXE/MBR) but nothing works. I even borrowed Win7 and Vista set install disks to friends, look for the file "bootrec.exe" illusory the claim of Microsoft would solve the problem, but it does not appear to be. I've skimmed through various assignments here, but nothing seems to fit my situation.

  Any help anyone can offer would be much appreciated.

  Thank you
  Harry

  P.S. at the suggestion of a friend I just installed Ubuntu Linux and that works OK! Why is it working OK and not my backup Windows?

  > I bought a Toshiba Satellite C660 - 10 d for my birthday in August and was a little disappointed to find that it did not include the Windows 7 disc - instead, I found a "Recovery" partition to use if there is a problem

  The user manual provides information that you can create own recovery disk using the preinstalled software called Toshiba recover Media Creator. So apart from HARD drive recovery, then recovery disc could be used too.

  If its always recommended to create a pick it up Toshiba drive in case something bad would happen to the recovery of HARD drive or the HARD drive itself

  Bootmgr is missing could be solved by the new facility.
  Wither away if you use a floppy from Win 7 Microsoft and would install the drivers that can be downloaded from the page of European driver of Toshiba or you will here order the recovery disk:

• Update IE KB978207 - Bootmgr is missing error

  Hello
  One of our machines KB978207 update IE was installed causing a problem at the start to the top: "Bootmgr is missing". Tried using the Vista CD to repair the installation, but the DVD player could no longer be read clearly visible in the bios. After some time, we finally got it to work. We were able to start from the DVD drive and ran the repair of Vista twice, which incidentally reported no problem found with the system files. It's the only update that has been installed on the day. I need to understand why this would cause the problem, I am afraid that our other PC will experience the same issue.

• "BOOTMGR is Missing", but no disc.

  My father read an email when the screen froze.  He began to close and when he turned it on, come "BOOTMGR is missing".  He says that it's XP, but it doesn't have the original startup disk.  Can anyone help?

  Hi, Astrombe,

  Method 4: Using Startup Repair on a computer that has a preinstalled on your computer recovery option

  Important: This method is available only if the Startup Repair tool is a preinstalled on your computer recovery option:

  If you do not have a disc of Windows 7 or Windows Vista, and Startup Repair is a recovery preinstalled on your computer option, follow these steps to repair the startup files:

  1. Remove all floppy disks, CDs and DVDs from your computer and restart your computer by using the power button on the computer.

     -If your computer has a single operating system installed, press and hold the F8 key as your computer restarts. You need to press F8 before the Windows logo appears. If the Windows logo appears, you must try again by waiting until the Windows logon prompt appears, and then stop and restart your computer.

     -If your computer has more than one operating system, use the arrow keys to select the operating system you want to repair, and then press and hold F8.

  2. In the display Advanced Startup Options , use the arrow keys to select repair your computerand press enter. (If your computer is not listed as an option, then your computer doesn't understand no repair preinstalled recovery options, or your network administrator has disabled the.)
  3. Select a keyboard layout, and then click Next.
  4. Select a user name and the password and click OK.
  5. In the System Recovery Options menu, click Startup Repair. Startup Repair can invite you to make choices as it tries to solve the problem and, if necessary, it may restart your computer, because it makes the repairs.
