I was about to format my hard drive because our technician believed there's a bad sector causing the BSOD every startup.

So I formatted my drive. I inserted a bootable cd installer of windows 8. I formatted the drive using the cmd tool I typed "format c: /fs:ntfs"
Then it asked for the volume label I typed in system reserved.. Then it asked me if i'm sure I type in y.. To my surprise it formatted only 100mb.. My drive size is 931mb.. So I restarted the system to see what is it that I formatted.. But it's already showing "bootmgr missing press ctrl+alt+delete to restart" I tried every other possible drive to be the first priority boot but it shows the same bootmgr missing, including my bootable cd, it shows that message. So i'm kind of trapped because there's no where to go. I need help. Thank you!
 
Solution
system spec? how many HDD or SDD do you have? sound like you need to delete all the old partition first with windows 8 dvd and then recreate new partition.
