    can't startup


    For over a year, I have had Windows 10 on a Lenovo G580 idea pad laptop. A few few minutes ago, I turned the computer on as usual but after seeing the Lenovo logo, a screen appear saying BOOTMGR MISSING Press ctl+alt+del to restart.

    After doing so, the a screem woth the same instructions appear. I tried turning the computer off and starting all over, with the same result. I am not a sufficiently knowledgable about computers to know if is a problem with window or the computer.

    I would be grateful for any help.
    PS. I have a google chromebook on which I can get the same emails as the laptop avoiding, therefore, the catch 22 that I can't get your response because I can't get on the laptop.

    Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

    The startup repair options from a standard Windows 10 installation USB flash drive or DVD will very seldom repair such problems. I would suggest that you create a bootable USB flash drive or DVD of Kyhi's Recovery Tools available from this forum:
    Windows 10 Recovery Tools - Bootable Rescue Disk - Windows 10 Forums

    Boot the computer from a USB flash drive or DVD with Kyhi's Recovery Tools and you can do a couple of things. There is a program on it called Macrium Reflect. Run that program and under the Restore menu is a utility to Fix Windows boot problems. Select that utility and it has a much better chance of fixing the boot partition than the standard repair menu offered by Windows installation.

    You can also access disk management and take a screenshot of the disk management display and we can see the status of the drive and possibly determine what the problem might be.

    Thanks for the suggestions. I hope I can get back to you if I have trouble following the directions or it doesn't work.
