Hello,
I recently (just a few days ago) bought a samsung notebook (NP300E5X) with FreeDOS OS installed. I boot-up from my Window 7 DVD and went through the installation process which i canceled it after i format the HDD (because i had no new partition button active).
I thought maybe a restart will solve things out, but after that couldn't boot anymore from dvd/usb and after BIOS loads up(which happens very fast) , i get the message :
BOOTMGR is missing, press CTRL+ALT+DEL to restart .
The only option my laptop has when i start it is F2 to enter BIOS, and F4 for System Recovery (which doesnt do anything when i press it).
I set up the boot order to first CD/DVD , then to USB KEY/HDD and finnaly to HDD, and i tryed different combination but i get the same result: laptop won't boot from any of them so i can't install an OS.
Tomorrow il go to service with it but honestly i'm dissapointed i could not solve this by myself.
Maybe some of you had the same problem with a SAMSUNG laptop and would share it
