Bootmgr is missing

[audra]

My computer won't boot. Bootmgr is missing and when I put in my Vista CD it
does not give me an OS to choose from. What is wrong and what can I do.
Maybe it's a bad Hard Drive?

install linux.

Hi,
You may have to install a driver for your hard drive when using the repair
function of the DVD.

Try startup repair earlier in the process from the install now page. Lower

Also, what did you do that may have caused it, i.e. install another drive or
alter one, change something in the BIOS etc.
