Message after Windows XP Update....NTLDR is missing...what the?

[ozgal]

Hi all,

How wonderful to find such a fantastic site. I'm looking forward to reading lots of the posts.

Currently, I have a vexing problem, that I think I've seen mention of online somehwere.

I decided to give my poor Pentium P4 computer a break and rebooted last night. As per the topic of my post, once computer rebooted, it displayed the following message:

NTLDR is missing, Press Ctrl+Alt+Del :upset:

I've followed those instructions but on rebooting a couple of times the same message is still displayed.

If anyone can help with very easy step-by-step instructions I'd be ever so grateful.

Cheers for any and all help with this. :)

The first thing I would try is Google that phrase.

Does this help?

Thanks so much TrippyTom.....a friend of mine also alerted me to the site you mentioned.

I think I'll be fine now to work things out.

Many thanks for your kind help.
