NTLDR

[jerjim]

Whenever i turnn on my computer in the morning i sometimes get the message NTLDR is missing.

So I turn it off and then its OK?

How can i solve this problem and what is the NTLDR?

The Microsoft Help files are not that helpful

I installed the system recovery console but it doesn't seem to help.

Thanks in advance for any help

NTLDR is responsible for controlling the boot process until NTOSKRNL takes over the job. without NTLDR, your win2k machine will not boot. most of the time i encounter this error message from our workstation users, i find a diskette still stuck in the drive. if these diskettes were formatted on win2k and are not set up to boot, then the error message, NTLDR is missing will appear. if you have a corrupted drive with most of your system files corrupted, you can load the recovery console and copy the system files from your CD to your system root.
