I have a Dell Laptop with Windows 7 x64 installed. Today when I pressed the power button to resume it, the message appeared,
"BOOTMGR image is corrupt. The system cannot boot."
I went to boot options and reset the default settings but no avail. Every time I boot up same error comes. I do not have Windows Installation Disk or Windows Repair Disk CD/DVD, although I do have Windows 7 x64 Repair Disk as an ISO file on my PC.
What can I do to restore the boot manager?

Hi Forz. You can get a disk from here,

Choose the same version as is installed.

OK I am downloading the file but it will take some time, my Download Speed is very low.

OK. I recommend you burn it to DVD (at 4x speed) with this,

While I was waiting for the file to download I burned the Windows 7 x64 Repair Disk ISO file to USB using "ISO to USB" . I booted with the the USB and got into recovery options. Then I followed the Option 2 on this site and voila! It booted up!
Thanks for the time. If I have any problem I'll post it on this forum.
