5. NTLDR is missing.
6. Registry configuration error.

Not let’s start solving the problem:

1. Check some hardware issues before proceeding. The system can repair only systems configuration and settings, systems files but not hardware. Hardware errors can also cause registry problem or boot-up problems like hard disk error, memory, Motherboard, power supply etc.
2. Begin repairing your operating system. Boot from your windows OS CD. Make sure that the primary boot device in your BIOS is set to your Optical Drive or your CD ROM device. When “Press any key to boot from CD” prompts on the screen, just press any key to boot from your CD. If the CD stops booting there is a possibility that your CD has been damage. You need to grab a copy or a backup of your installation disk to be use for booting and repairing.
3. If booting is successful your screen turns into blue and shows some information during installation. Wait until the installation files completely loaded.
4. When Welcome to Setup appears, you are asked to choose an option. To set up Windows XP no, press ENTER. To repair a Windows XP installation using Recovery Console, press R. To quit Setup without installing Windows XP, press F3. Since our goal is to repair our operating system. Press R to repair Windows using Recovery Console.
5. Next is a black screen asking you the drive number where your operating system is installed. Usually, your Operating System was installed at disk 1. Press 1. Then the computer will asked you to provide the user name, type Administrator. Next is, you will be asked for the Administrators password, type the password. If your Operating System is not protected by password the recovery console will not ask you for the password.
6. Now, you are in the command prompt (C:>), this is the text based interface of our operating system where you can key in a command directly at the prompt. Type “CHKDSK /?” so that you will know the parameters to be use when executing the external command CHKDSK. You will then see on the screen the list of parameter like “/F”. Type the “CHKDSK /F” on the command prompt without the quotes then press enter.
7. The system will begin repairing your operating system. It will replace all files corrupted, registry error entries and even the NTLDR. Also checks the bad blocks and bad sectors bounded by system files on the hard disk.
