    HDD Bootsector Repair Utility

     
    Does anyone know of a utility that can (read/copy) and write hard disk boot sectors (not limited to floppy disks or CDs)?
    I have a HDD that needs to have the boot sector repaired.

    I have a duplicate HDD that I can use as a source for the boot sector.
    Something like: make a backup image of the boot disk sectors from the source disk, modify as needed then write to destination disk.

    Thanks, Tracey

    All the applications that I have found so far are only for floppy disks or CDs.

    Put your system disk in, log into the recovery console and run fixmbr, and fixboot
