Guys,

My media pc's boot record has been compressed (lol) so it won't boot I know how to fix this via dos prompt but I can't seem to boot into dos - it's running vista and I have a working widows 7 machine so created a boot cd from that but won't work as it detects a vista install not win7!

The catch is I have no internet access yet, so can I manually create a dos boot disk via my working machine at all??

I know I could take the hdd out an sort it but that is a mammoth task!

Ideas?
 
Hmm, if you could get hold a vista disk and do a repair on the bootloader, that would do the trick without the need for DOS.
If you could somehow download freeDOS and boot via disk / usb, that would get you into DOS too..
hmm, a tricky 1, I will give you that.
