Try repairing with Windows CD?

Maybe you ran something malicious because in years of experience in the field, even I never heard of an error like that. Of course if it was a new virus of some sort it would spurt unknown never heard of fake errors to cover up the real problem. I suggest downloading and burning

You must be registered to see links

and run it through your machine. Just to make sure its nothing malicious. You should be able to access a PC and a blank CD to do that much.

Uhh... I can't find -anything- called Egzum that would relate to anything in this case.

I did search the basic 'is compressed. press ctrl+alt+delete' error, and found that there was a lot of people that had that issue with bootmgr. There was also one guy who had an issue because he messed with his computer's BIOS badly.
One suggestion was to flash the CMOS, but I have absolutely no idea what Egzum is so I have no idea if that would help at all. I would try to get your hands on a Windows installation or repair disk so you can repair.

Flash the CMOS is always a good idea. Google on how to, just remember to google for how to on your specific motherboard.

bootmgr is usually a corrupt win installation.

It depends on wich pc you have , try re-configuring it , or just buy a Windows CD and re-install it , but this will make u loose all ur data.The problem you have may be caused by a virus.

Where do you get this error? Be specific. Does your computer post the bios info? Does this happen before or after the bios post? Does windows loading splash load? Does this happen as soon as it loads into desktop? You have to be precise on what your telling us so we can identify what and where the problem might be.

Have you tried booting from a linux cd? Sounds like your MBR is corrupt or something. Probably better off loading up killdisk or something on it and low level formating it. Then install fresh windows on it.
