Check in your BIOS and make sure your computer is reconzing you hard drive. If it does not open the side of the case and make sure that everything is secured and no plugs have come loose off the hard drive. Let us know what you find.

I presume you mean NTLDR. Have you got your XP installation disc. If not, what discs have you got? EDIT: I see that the Hardware Team are on your case, so I'll let them look after you. However, still provide the information I asked for as it may help them.

 The quickest, simplest and easiest way to rectify your issue, is to ask a friend that has the same O/S (i.e: XP Home or XP Pro) for which ever one you are running, and let them allow you to copy these files toaeither a floppy disc or CD. The Files are: ntldr ; NETDETECT.COM and boot.ini. To copy these files you will need to go into the folder options and check the box "Show HiddenFiles and Folder" and uncheck the box "Hide Protected Operating System Files" to be able to see these particular files. Access to do this is from an Explorer window following these steps...Tools > Folder Options > View. Once you have copiedthese folders, boot up your 'sick' computer with the floppy/CD and it will start, once fully operational, you will need to copy simply these files to your computer. Post back with any queries/concerns.
