Had a big scare just now as I've never encountered this before.
Ok so here's my set up:
120 GB SSD with windows 7 and all my applications installed on it
300 GB 7200 RPM HD for storage
CD drive
Lack of brain
I was playing with partitions to try and install either linux or mac os on the other hard drive. I have mac os 8 and I was curious to see if it would even work. While doing so I set the other partition on my SSD as the primary partitions, making 2. I formatted the other drive, dicked around and restarted to install.
"BootMgr missing
Ctrl-Alt-Del to reset"
Holy fuck.
I couldn't boot from the DVD drive from some reason, I couldn't boot from my asshole, I couldn't do shit but I managed to get into the bios.
I somehow forced it to boot from DVD after dicking around in the settings, and popped in the win7 dvd. Then did a repair on the disk, it said it found some problems and repaired it. I went back in the bios and set it to SSD.
"BootMgr bla bla
Ctrl-Alt-LOL"
So I went back in to the bios again, set it to DVD again, repaired it one more 'gain and it finally fucking repaired and booted off the SSD.
Holy crap man, I thought I had lost everything just then.
