Hi guys
I have a problem with a Foxconn 945P7AA motherboard.
I can't install windows.... the PC asks me to press any key to boot from CD or DVD
But then I get this error - BOOTMGR is missing, press ctrl-alt-del to continue
I've loaded bios defaults
I can see the optical drive in the bios and set it to first boot device
I can see the HDD in the BIOS
I've tried booting from two different Win7 CDs (which I know are good)
I've tried booting from a WinXP CD (which I know is good)
I've tried booting from a Sata DVD drive and an IDE CDROM. I know the sata dvd drive is good, not 100% sure about the IDE but no reason to think it is faulty
I've tried booting from a USB drive with windows 7 installer - i've used the same USB drive on other PCs to boot and load windows no problem
I've tried a couple of different SATA HDDs
I've tried googling but didn't really find anything to help me
No matter what I try I get the same error
So I was hoping some of you guys may have an idea what is happening here
