bootmgr missing

[okuyala74]

We had a thunder storm and power flashed off and on again. My computer shut down wrong and when I turned it back on it wanted to check the system, which I skipped. Then power fashed again and when it rebooted it went to system recovery. I ran all the tests and it passes but then I selected system recovery instead of of the microsoft system repair. When I noticed it was going to format my hard drive I canceled because I had selected the wrong option. Now it gives me the bootmgr missing message and when I press cntrl alt delet the repair option is no longer available. I do not want to lose all my pics and music. Please help me. It is a desktop model number P6213W.

Hi,

If you don't already have one, use another PC to create a Windows 7 Rescue CD.  Download the relevant ISO from the links below - if you're unsure of the version, your PC is listed as coming with Windows 7 64bit so try this first.

Windows 7 32bit

Windows 7 64bit

You should use an application such as ImgBurn to burn the ISO to a CD - a guide on using ImgBurn to write an ISO to a disc is Here.  Once created, or if you already have this, insert the CD into the PC and restart to boot from it.  Select the Repair option.

Select the 'Repair your Computer' option and follow Option 2 in the guide on the link below to run Start-up Repair – you may need to run this 2 or 3 times.

If the above fails to help, make a note of any error messages you may get during the procedure and include them with your next post.
