Black Screen with NTLDR is Missing Error on Windows XP

There are different reasons for this error message four your info. First you need to check if the BIOS is looking on the right drive and partition. you may also check if the partition on you're drive is active. or remove anything that you plug before when your system was working properly hardware failure also cause this one. You should check these things first and if they are all ok, you can try to make a new bootdisk or try you're win XP cd to repair the boot problem.

     Note If you have a dual-boot or multiple-boot computer, select the installation that you must access from the Recovery Console.
