NTLDR is missing

Comment:
While I am booting on Windows XP, it says "NTLDR is missing" and I am not able to boot to Windows XP. What is NTLDR? What could be the reason that NTLDR is missing? Thanks!

Boot from the win Install CD and choose Repair Instalation or something like that. Press "c" for console prepair. In console there are few commands you can use for repairing. Type 'chkdsk /R' and wait few hours depending on how big your HDD is. Then type 'fixboot X:' where X is your boot partiton and try to reboot. If there is still a problem, switch back to rescue command line and type 'fixmbr'.

another thing you can do is to log onto the recovery console and copy ntldr.exe to your C: root folder ie. just C:\.
also you can go to pcplus magzine's website, they are supposed to have something on it.
