Re: BOOTMGR image corrupt

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance


Alan, not sure which link
(http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/141820-create-recovery-disc.html ??)
you are referring to, but did you download the 64 bit version from the
link?

Also the page you linked had a download to a program that said it would
not
support 64-bit OS software, which is what I have. Therefore the
installation
announced it would forcibly abort itself.

Hello Alan,

I would recommend running Startup Repair on that drive to see if that
can fix the BOOTMGR (MBR) for you. This tutorial will help show you
how
to if needed.

Hope this helps,

What started as one of the game programs on my drive crashing
turned
into
this. "BOOTMGR image corrupt: system cannot boot."

Fiddling around with the Vista CD's Repair Utilities and Acronis
Disk
Director, I was able to run CHKDSK on the drive. After going
through
the
Verifying Files Stage where it says it is fixing a large number of
files, it
arrives at stage 2, Verifying Indexes, and at that point it says
"Unspecified
Error Occurred" and stops. With Acronis I am able to locate data
folders and
files on the drive, but cannot transfer them to either of my other
two
hard
drives. Acronis Recovery Expert says it cannot find any unallocated
space on
the drive, even though the drive's data is only about 25 to 35% of
the
drive's capacity. I still cannot boot from the drive, and if I try
to
access
it in My Computer, I get, "E:\ is not accessible: Access is
Denied."
Also in
my computer, under the drive's volume name there is no gauge bar to
show how
much of the drive's capacity is occupied by data, like with my
other
two
drives.

Does anyone have any ideas? Can anyone assist?> > > >
