Cannot connect to Windows 7 and after stabilizing off (cold boot), got a message bootmgr is missing.

I went ahead and shut down my computer last night as I do every night. When I got home and turned on, I got a message to connect. I've never had to do before. It's a desktop pc. I use my laptop for that. Then when I turned it off (cold boot), after that, I got a message saying that the bootmgr is missing. Then, after that, I had no choice but to do a system restore. I found one of my Seagate external drive, which took most of my info on (until it became full and I could save is nothing else). So, after I recover most of the important things, I'll buy another external hard drive to back up my info, I should have backed up before. I must have got a virus. I don't know how, if.

Hi Dotty,

Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

The description of the question, I understand you are facing a problem with Windows 7 login and you also mentioned that, when you have disabled (cold boot), you got a message bootmgr is missing.

I appreciate if you could answer a few questions.

1. What is the model of your computer?

2. don't you make changes before this problem?

3. you have backup DVD for Windows 7?

The most common reason for BOOTMGR is missing include boot, responsible for the initialization of the operating system are either corrupt or missing. Another reason is that if the computer is trying to boot from a hard drive or flash drive that is not configured correctly.

I suggest you follow the methods provided on the KB article below and see if that fixes the problem.

  • Cannot connect to Windows Server Core after installation with VMWorkstation

    Yes, I chose not to add the ISO image later and now, I ran the installation a dozen times in all directions.

    Whenever the installation finishes I'm not given the option to enter a password instead, I am presented with an 'Other' account with a password set on it already which is unknown to me.

    Does anyone have this problem before?

    Well, when you make a Windows Server 2008 Standard (Server Core Installation) it seems to be quite normal to the «Different user» login  What I did after clicking on 'Another user' I typed in Administrator and no password and then clicked on the round right arrow button on the screen, the next screen has warned "the password must be changed before logging on the first time." and then click OK.  In the next screen, I entered the password and confirm the new password as was then able to connect.

    Hello

    References to Vista also apply to Windows 7.

    You can try to fix it with Safe Mode - repeatedly press F8 as you bootup. Safe Mode ADMINISTRATOR account has no password by default (unless someone has changed the password so it should be available).

    Some programs such as the Google Updater (if you added the toolbar Google, Chrome or Google Earth) has been known to cause this problem.

  • IE (8) cannot connect to Windows Update

    I can connect is more to the Windows Update web page.  IE (8) connects very well to everything else.  I tried all the fixes I have found in the knowedge base to try to solve this problem.  I ran the malware removal of MS SW tool.  There are a few problems and withdrawn.  I ran Malware Bytes, AVG and the window update utility "fixit".  It also won't work if I go directly to the Windows Update Web page.  It fails after the initial check to see if I have the good SW to run it.  Currently, I can't even view the history of installed updates.   I'm looking for any suggestions to fix this problem.   Thank you.

    Update: the problem has been fixed.  Last night, with the help of technology Microsoft Windows Update try several things to solve the problem, we finally have downloaded and run the application Kaspersky TDSSKILLER what found and hardened rootkit infection: Alureon.

    After re-booting, I connected to Windows Update and downloaded updates of August successfully.  Then, I removed my AVG antivirus (which found nothing previously reported) and installed Avast.  A quick scan found that this same virus again in two places with another and successfully removed them.   Analysis again with all watch all clean now.   It's a nasty infection considering how tools couldn't find and the problems that he was originally.

  • Cannot connect to Windows Vista due to password problem

    I have a Dell XPS computer laptop model PP28L and run Vista Home Premium. When I bought the computer I bought in a pawn shop. Of course it was sold with no records at all. No recovery or restore of Windows disks. I have a valid Microsoft "proof of License'for my Vista Home Premium. Should I be reinstall Windows and if yes how I'd get the disks.

    * original title - cannot connect on Windows Vista Home Premium because someone changed my password, deleted my ID of the administrator and the guest connection. I am in the *.

    Your only option is to do a clean install of Vista.  There is no free, download of the disk.  Contact the manufacturer of the computer and they may be willing to sell you a set of recovery disks to reinstall the system (but you will need 23 digit product key to activate it in all probability even if sometimes it is not necessary when it is made with recovery on the same computer discs).

    Here is Microsoft's policy on software lost: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/326246 you can see is not much help.

    If you can borrow an installation disk of Vista genuine of the same size of the bit of ANYONE, you can use that with your product key to re - install the system and start over (you get a new administrator account and set your own password for him - or to leave empty that you choose).

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!
