My bootmgr for toshiba A215 a4807 notebook is missing

When you turn on the computer, go into the bios. This is done by pressing either the F1 or DEL key. It's usually one of them. It varies by manufacturer. Once in the bios make sure your hard drive is listed. If it's not listed it either came loose or is defective. If it is listed, see if there's an option to test the hard drive. What it sounds like is that the hard drive became corrupted. Or at least the section with the bootmgr. Here's an article on ways to fix it http://pcsupport.about.com/od/findbyerrormessage/a/bootmgr-is-missing.htm. hope it helps.

What OS is this ??

I would assume this may have Windows XP or 7, see if you can find the recovery disk for your machine. One of the things you can try is use the CD as your boot disk (you may need to enter the BIOS or SETUP to change the boot order...there will be a key to hit when you see the Toshiba splash screen when you first boot the machine...it will say press "<some key here>" to enter setup.)
Once you boot from the disk I would try getting to a command prompt and running the following command: chkdsk c: /f /r

This will scan and repair any bad sectors on your hard drive and if they can be repaired it may make your machine bootable again. If they cannot be repaired, it may be that your hard drive is dying. Either way...if you get into the machine (even from the boot disk) if you can see the drive, I'd recommend backing up whatever files you can, because if the drive dies, you will lose your data

Change the boot startup order back to the hard drive as the first boot device in the BIOS. If you still have this problem then -

If bootmgr is missing..your computer wont turn on....you have to now reinstall the operating system.
you can try with the inbuilt system recovery..or you can use a os cd to do that.

Use your Windows CD to repair the windows..
