Hey guys,

I'm running vista and built a new rig about 2 months ago....everything has been working fine up until last night. I was reloading songs into my ipod and all of a sudden the screen froze and the computer rebooted. I then get the error msg "bootmgr is missing press ctrl+alt+delete to restart"......and it keeps happening.

now from a google search, this is a fairly easy fix of putting in the vista disk and hitting repair. which I intend on doing, however, I noticed that none of my drives are listed in the bios on startup anymore and if this problem looks like this problem...

....but is something else.

Here are some pics of my start up screens.....

I had 1 raptor as the main drive and 2 in a raid array. All WD's.

Seems pretty straight forward if you follow the link, but I just want some other professional opinions. Thanks
