bootloader is missing after restore using BESR 2010

Guys,

I'm fairly new to BESR 2010. I made a backup of Dell Dimension E310 w Windows 7, after restoring to a similar if not identical desktop, the box fails to boot with "boot loader missing" error. I`ve made a new backup and after restore I get the same result. I tried also check-marking the MBR, but it didn't help. How do I go about resolving this problem ?

Thanks

I checked the partition table, followed the other article but nothing helped. The ammount of time that I put into it was a lot more then having to reimage from scratch. So I grabbed the disc and reinstalled Windows....
