Hi,
I am fixing an old Acer Asipire 5550 laptop-runing win xp. It has the recovery CD. I formatted the HD and placed it in and tried to recover using the CD. I get this message saying "bootmgr is missing".
This does not make sense since the CD should have worked. I did format the HD from FAT32 to NTFS, but I don't really think that is the issue here. Is there a way to use my W7 64bit desktop as a hub of some sort, so I install the software it to the laptop's HD? I doubt that it will work since it does not cure the bootmgr problem.
Thanks for the help.
