NTLDR is missing

got this error message today ona win2k box tooka while but here is what i did

went oh S**T and put my head in mt hands lol

i tell you the cause first ... it was a cd in the cd drive on reboot..

reason was the boot order was set to cdrom hdd floppy.......

cure

i changed boot order to hdd / cdrom / floppy

now that cured it lol if a cd isnt in the drive it ignores and goes to next boot order but as my stoopid boss left a cd in there thats what happened


maybe this info will help others ... before running repair console

and this may not be the only reasson this happens ..


hope this helps

if forgot this time but normally i install from boot cd then first reboot i get i change bios back to hdd / cdrom / floppy but this time i forgot and left it
