Hi I Have a Core 2 duo E4400 with 1 GB of RAM on a Gigabyte 945GZM-S2 motherboard I was running Windows Vista Ultimate with SP1, and was trying to upgrade to windows 7 Ultimate RTM, When I tried Installing windows 7 it asked for 12 gigs of free space, and I could not think of any way to go beyond 11 gigs so I compressed c: drive which gave me 12.5 gigs and I installed windows 7 Right After I installed it, it worked like a charm, I rebooted the PC cauz the power went away, when I tried to boot, thats what got me to the problem, It would not let me boot saying Bootmgr is compressed Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to continue So I tried to boot via the Windows 7 Bootable disc, It booted to safe mode via the disc and I tried the folowing went to dos and tried expand bootmgr temp attrib bootmgr -s -r -h del bootmgr ren temp bootmgr attrib bootmgr -a +s +r +h Didn't work, then I tried "Click 'Repair my Computer' At the prompt to select your OS installation, click the button that says 'Load Drivers'. This should bring up a explorer-style drive browser. Then just right-click on the drive you tried to compress, and deselect 'Compress this Drive', which should still be ticked on. Hit apply, and apply to subfolders/files. " but the problem with that is it does not show the drive is compressed Any ideas on what I can do now!!! Edit: I also tried bootrec /fixmbr no luck again!!

try this,it works for me Validate and Fix the File System This runs the check disk program to detect and attempt to repair problems on one partition. For example, to repair the C: drive: At the prompt type chkdsk c: /r Repair the Boot Process Typically this is used if Windows doesn't start and you can't get to the safe mode menu. You might also replace the Master Boot Record (MBR) and boot sector if you suspect a virus infection. There are four options: New MBR - Insert a new generic MBR without changing the partition table. At the prompt, type: bootrec /FixMbr New Boot Sector - Insert a new Windows 7/Vista compatible boot sector. It will automatically insert the right type of sector for the file system type (NTFS, FAT32, etc.) At the prompt, type: bootrec /FixBoot Rebuild BCD - Rebuild the Boot Configuration Data (BCD). The BCD controls which partition boots. This option will let you select which installations to include in the BCD. At the prompt, type: bootrec /RebuildBcd Find OSes - Scan the system for all OS installations that are compatible with Vista/2008 and will also show those that are currently included in the BCD. At the prompt, type: bootrec /ScanOs in the end type in C:/expand bootmgr temp play with it a bit,see how u go

Oh my God thanks! I was compressing my drives with my OS's on them, dual HDD Asus M70Vm-C1, so I would stop getting the "low memory" pinging, Little did I know that MS in their infinite wisdom doesn't protect the Boot Manager from being able to be compressed, even though it won't work if compressed, way to go Bill. So I was getting the TFGHT is compressed message which prevented me from logging into either Vista or W7. Thank God Asus has a Linux Expressgate on my laptop which allowed me internet access so I could solve the problem. I'm so glad I found this website with all the helpful info. Thanks moti68.

I have a mash-up PC of an HP a1012x (motherboard) and a Compaq SR1090NX (Hard drive) and various other cards and hardware and I am having this same issue. Everything was working well with a fresh install of Windows 7 except that if I had one of my external hard drives plugged into a USB, the computer tried to boot to it so I disabled all external hard drives in order to fix it but I had not re-enabled any of the drives yet including my cd drives as secondary boot options when I started getting the BOOTMNGR is Compressed message. Now when I try to get to the boot menu (ESC for boot menu, F1 for set up or F10 for system recovery) it doesn't catch any keystrokes as if there's no keyboard attached so I'd like to know if there's another way to reset the cd drives as secondary had drives in the bios w/o actually going into the bios to set them so I can even try the above solution to the BOOTMNGR problem.
