NTLDR Missing

This error can occur when the partition containing the operating system does not contain the boot files. This results in windows not loading. The first area to check is that the hard drives are plugged in correctly and that the cables are not loose. When these have been checked if all ok then place your windows XP CD into the drive and boot from it.

Press F10 then R and Select the recovery console. Press C to start recovery console. Copy the NTLDR file from the Windows XP CD-ROM to the root of your system partition by using the following commands, pressing ENTER after each command:

1. Type cd\ to go to the root of drive C 
2. Type the letter of the CD-ROM drive
3. Type cd i386 to change into the right directory
4. Type Copy ntldr c: 
5. Type Exit
