I'm asking this for my friend.. he tried installing a new seagate 160 GB drive on his system, he set up his old drive as primary and his new drive as slave. But when eh tries to boot up his system.. it says Ntldr missing.. press ctrl+alt+del to restart your computer. Any idea what's wrong?
 
If the drives are detected and working right, sounds like the boot order is messed up to me. Check the bios and make sure.
 
Unhook the new drive and see if it still does it.
If it does, run xp repair.

 
Make sure there isn't a non-bootable floppy in the floppy drive.

IBM Desktops will (stupidly) give this error if there is. Others might tool

Ok, he tried that. But when he boots it as master it doesn't work..

The boot order is fine.. he checked it numerous times
 
ntdlr (NT Loader) if bios is setup right for booting order then odds are its a MBR problem, sometimes you can get this error when you just add in a new hardrive
