How-To Geek

Hi everyone, I did an upgraded (customs install with format HDD) from Window XP 32bit to Windows 7 64 bit last night and have the following problem

The initial installation went well without any problem. However, when I switched the computer on this morning I found the error message "BOOTMGR is missing, Alt+Ctrl+Delete to restart". Then I switched the boot sequence from HDD to CDRom with the the Windows 7 disc in, the computer starts up normally. I tried the "Repair" function in Windows 7 Installation disc but it found nothing to repair. Can someone please help? I don't want to boot the pc up with the installation disc in every time.

Below is the bcdedit of my pc. By the way, I am a PC novice so I need clear illustration in every step.
Thanks very much for your in advance.

hey scman,you never did say what is on your other HDD. However plug the second Hdd in and start windows again with the disk. go into the repair computer section of your disk,when window opens go into the c:/prompt and see if your second hdd is there. if it is type in dir hit enter and see if there is anything on that hdd. if there isn't then just format the drive and the reboot the computer. it will then only see the os and should boot. after that you should see your second hdd in "my computer".if you have xp on the one drive then you might have to use the xp disk to correct your xp instalation.
