SQL server worked after removing and re-add the credentials. Ah great! Thanks for responding back to share. My apologies. To the OP. I have now generated a very very useful WinPE with a heap of tools. Windows Startmenu, Windows explorer, Partitioning tools, recovery tools and so on.
Hi thank you very much for your guide…I work at a school and we have just been given 30 Windows 7 computers…obviously this guide saved me a lot of time and effort! There could be 2 reasons why you get this. I noticed that you are only applying 1. What I have found with Win 7 is if you build it from scratch and blow away all partitions on the drive that Windows will create a mb C drive and a D drive where everything else goes.
Whenever we applied a Win 7 image to an old XP machine we would get the bootmgr is missing error and have to resort to the Win 7 disk to fix it just like you seem to have to do.
This could be because of that mb system partition. In my environment we always blew everything away and started from scratch when installing Win 7 in the drive options page. Finally we realized that just as you capture an image of your main OS partition you could also capture an image of the mb system partition and apply it down as well.
So we began Sysprepping and capturing the C drive as a. Then when building a new PC we simply apply both. After both images have applied if we reboot we still get the BootMgr is Missing error and we would have to resort to the installation disk. If we apply the image and then type bcdboot.
Click Enter on the first one and the OS will load as it normally does. Then on reboot the Dual Boot option is gone and windows will boot successfully. So you might try just doing the bcdboot step after your image and see if that stops you from having to do the Repair. If it works then you can ignore all the mumbo jumbo about the mb system reserve. If you still have to do the start up repair then Windows may be applying that for you behind the scenes so the next time you sysprep a machine you might try capturing that as a WIM as well as your OS partition.
Then when applying an image you can use DISKPART commands to create partitions and assign letters so that your machine boots perfectly after the image is applied. The only thing needed is a previous Sysprep and captured image of both partitions. Create the 2 partitions with DiskPart as per your post. Now restore your. When you are done, use bcdboot. You will also not have to deal with dual boot config.
You run the bcdboot. Or get the bootmgr is missing error :. I will test in the AM. I already do the bcdboot to the D step within WinPE. Remove the C. As long as bdcboot is run from D to C. You can also look into modifying the WindowsRE environment and even assigning custom Fx button presses at startup to give your users a very quick restore function similar to Lenovo or more the modern Dell System Restore.
Awesome for business laptop users on the go. No, it would not. Hence the issue. Morning -just a quick note to say thanks for the download of imagex on ISO — saved me a couple hours! An impressive share! Contact Homelab. Here we chose the filename image. The file must have the suffix. You can provide your own description to identify it easily.
