  1. Do you have a Vista disc? If so, you can boot from the CD.

     

    To Repair or Fix a broken Vista MBR:

     

    To Restore Vista MBR, please use the following simple solution.

     

    1. Start your computer from the Windows Vista Installation DVD

    2. Press a key when prompted to continue

    3. Choose your language, time, keyboard and click Next:

    4. Next, click "Repair your Computer":

    5. Now, from the System Recovery Options dialog, select the "Operating System" you want to repair, then click Next:

    6. From the "Choose a Recovery Tool" dialog menu, select "Command Prompt":

    7. Type the following into the "Command Prompt Window":

    bootrec.exe /fixmbr
    bootrec.exe /fixboot

    8. Remove the Vista Installation DVD and restart your PC.

    9. If all goes well, this process should have enabled you to restore your Vista MBR and you should now be able to boot back into your Windows Vista Operating system.

     

    Or, try reading this if the above doesn't solve the problem.

     

    Also, I read in other places that EasyBCD has an option to repair the bootloader.

  2. CCleaner has an option to securely erase temporary and to wipe free space on a hard drive.

     

    Alternatively, you can use a program called Eraser to erase free space on your hard drive and to securely erase files.

     

    You can also download Darik's Boot and Nuke (DBAN) to securely erase your entire hard drive. If you use DBAN, though, you will have to reinstall Windows or another operating system on it as this will erase everything on your hard drive.

     

    Also, CCleaner is free to use, but you can donate. Eraser and DBAN are also free to use.
