(Microsoft search for
fixboot "Windows 7"

/FixBoot
The /FixBoot option writes a new boot sector to the system partition by
using a boot sector that is compatible with Windows Vista or Windows 7.

Use this option if one of the following conditions is true:

The boot sector has been replaced with a non-standard Windows Vista or
Windows 7 boot sector.

The boot sector is damaged.

An earlier Windows operating system has been installed after Windows Vista
or Windows 7 was installed. In this scenario, the computer starts by using
Windows NT Loader (NTLDR) instead of Windows Boot Manager (Bootmgr.exe).

Good luck

You can try running startup repair from the install disk. Otherwise it
would appear you have to rewrite your master boot record.

That is impossible.

Use DISKPART.EXE to

The boot manager changed the boot sector of the active partition and
inserted its code in there. It is also possible that the boot manager
would have changed the IPL code in the MBR and added its code in there,
for example some Linux boot loaders load from the MBR instead of the
boot sector of the active partition. Robert has pointed the OP in the
right direction, but depending on the boot manager the OP may also need
to use the /FixMbr command to rewrite the MBR.

Why do you say that?
