Missing Operating Operating System
I have a Windows 7 laptop that says when I boot it in the upper left corner, missing operating system. I did a startup repair & it finds no problems.....It was working fine this morning....how can I fix this?

Well, you say things are working fine. So it will be hard to find the problem.
Have you looked in Event Viewer for errors?
If this reoccurs:
I am a little confused. What happens when you continue to boot?
Is a disk in the CD/DVD drive?
Can you scan for viruses and malware?
Do you have a windows 7 installation disk ?
Can you post a screenshot of the message?
Did this just start recently? If so try a System Restore which you can reach clicking F8.
Your hard drive could be on the verge of failing. Run the appropriate diagnostic test from the maker of your HD.
