Since fitting my new Toshiba USB 320 gig hard disk the computer won't boot up with it switched on. I have to switch it on after XP is booted up when it works OK. I get the message " NTLDR is missing ". What's a NTLDR ? Anyone help ? Cheers

It's not that I can't remember things as I get older, it's just that my hard drive's full.

Well I have lots of information but no solution. It appears that obviously the problem is the new USB HD but what to do about it I know not. Any further light ? Thanks everybody.
