Change device there you find your imagex.exe

End the program with "exit"


Hint:
I got a 
"bootmgr missing" then I started the cloned Windows 7.
 

I started with the Win7 install DVD.

1. "Repair your Computer"

2.Select 
Startup Repair



- Alternatively you can type in in the comand prompt:

bootrec /rebuildbcd



- If Bootrec cannot locate any missing Windows installations,
you must remove the BCD store, and then you must re-create it.
To do this, type the following commands in the order shown below:
(Remember to press ENTER after each command)

bcdedit /export C:\BCD_Backup

ren c:\boot\bcd bcd.old

bootrec /rebuildbcd

- Restart the computer.


Sometimes following helps, in case Linux was installed:bootrec /fixmbr
bootrec /fixboot
bootrec /RebuildBcd




- Maybe you need another
Startup Repair

by booting from Install-DVD
