• Error NTLDR is missing - press ctrl alt del to restart

  Hello

  I am extremely embarrassed to admit the following and ridiculously angry at myself for doing something completely stupid as I did, but's done it now... sigh...

  I have NTLDR is missing - press ctrl alt del to restart error of nightmare.

  This is how it happened. I need (ed) to reformat my hard drive, but first I was going to save everything. I save every so often, that now, I'm not near as often as I should! (last to the top was sigh 21/05/07). Well, not to think, instead of backup, I put the recovery cd in the drive and the screen came up saying: "loading ramdisk" then I got to the next screen basically asking if I wanted to restore out of the box or not. I chose the first step of the wizard who said out of the box. Then I clicked NEXT and realized that I had not backed up my files! So I cancelled out of the restore cd Wizard.

  When I rebooted the computer, I got the error above nightmare.

  I did research for many, many hours on how to repair or at least be able to start windows. I did the following:

  1 creates a disk with ntldr, ntdetect.com, and boot.ini boot disk on it to restore, I all but I don't know if the dates say anything on those downloaded from another laptop

  It did not work I still came upward with the same error or some other errors one pointing to hal\something. I don't know if it's my boot.ini that causes the problem or what. Oh, by the way, I went into the BIOS and made sure the computer started up to FDD first when you try the floppy option.

  [boot loader]
  timeout = 30
  default = multi (0) disk (0)

  Hello

  It s a delicate and stupid situation.
  The simplest solution would be the formatting of HARD drive and new reinstallation of the operating system.

  But it seems you want to save all files available on the HARD disk.
  If all goes well it s not too late

  Hmmm. I think you have only one chance! You must remove the drive HARD internal of the laptop and try to connect it to the computer second external USB controller!
  This part is not expensive and can be ordered from each book.
  You should be able to get access to the HARD drive removed from the laptop...

  After this procedure, the HARD drive must be formatted as NTFS, and any partition must be deleted!
  Then you should try to start from the windows installation procedure or the restore CD.

  By the way; I study a little bit in the Microsoft database and found these two documents:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/318728
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/314057

  Maybe some advice described in these documents may be useful.

  Good luck

  I formatted my Compaq Presario V3136TU 2 days ago and has discovered just when I run the 2nd recovery CD, there is an error message that some files cannot be read. After completion, my laptop won't boot any more completely.

• Error - NTLDR is missing from the Windows XP computer.

  Original title: difficulty ntldr missing.

  I don't have xp recovery disk. I get lack ntldr message at startup. How can I fix wihout disc?

  Since the MS Answers forum does not prompt for any information system when a new question is asked, we know absolutely nothing about your system.  What makes which gives good ideas for extremely difficult solution.

  Provide information on your system, the better you can:

  What is your system brand and model?

  What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

  Your system have IDE or SATA disks?

  Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

  The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

  The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

  If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

  You can create a bootable CD from the Console of the Recovery XP (no XP media required) and start the XP Recovery Console.

  The chances are pretty good that there is a copy of the NTLDR file on your system to another location, so you can replace the missing file.

  The file is supposed to be like c:\ntldr c:\ root folder (note there is no file for the ntldr file extension) but of course your seems to have developed missing.

  If your system is preinstalled with XP there is probably a folder c:\i386 on your system and that there should be a copy of the file in folder c:\i386 NTLDR.

  If you have installed Service Pack 3 download Internet via the World Wide Web Wide, there will be a copy of the NTLDR file in this folder:

  c:\Windows\ServicepackFiles\i386

  Once you get started the recovery console and you ran chkdsk/r, I would see if these commands will work for you to replace the missing file:

  copy c:\i386\ntldr c:\

  or

  copy c:\windows\servicepackfiles\i386\ntldr c:\

  Here's how to make a CD of bootable XP Recovery Console and I would run the chkdsk /r FIRST to make sure that your file system is not damaged.

  Boot into the Recovery Console Windows using an XP bootable installation CD.

  If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and do not forget.

  This is not the same as recovery disks that might have come with the acquisition of the system store.

  You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

  The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

  xp_rec_con. ISO

  Download the ISO from here:

  http://www.mediafire.com/?ueyyzfymmig

  Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:

  http://www.ImgBurn.com/

  When you install ImgBurn, DO NOT install the Ask toolbar.

  Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

  http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61

  It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer running.

  You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

  When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

  Press any key to boot from CD...

  Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

  Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

  Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

  You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

  You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

  C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

  The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

  For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the prompt of commands or read on here XP Recovery Console:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/recovery_console_cmds.mspx?mfr=true

  A good idea before you start things must first verify the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

  In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

  Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

  Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

  CHKDSK C: /r

  Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.

  It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient.  If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

  You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

• Startup error - file is missing or corrupt: windows\system32\config\system

  When I turn on my computer, I get the following error message:

  Windows could not start because the following gile is missing or damaged:
  Windows\System32\Config\System
  You can try to repair this file by starting Windows Setup using the original Setup CD.
  Select the rat the first screen to start repair.

  I can't solve this problem because I do not understand what to do.
  First of all, I put in the recovery CD Toshiba to installation and then I turned on the computer.
  When the Toshiba screen came on I pressed r
  Nothing happened and I was returned to the original error message

  Secondly, I tried holding down c when I turned on the computer because that's what cd said to
  The CD loaded and brought me to a screen that asked me if I had backed up all my files
  I've supported them all upward, only some, because previously there was no problem with the computer and I don't think I have it will re-start.
  I hit not and so I do not know what to do next.

  I can lose everything on my computer, otherwise I'd just re - load windows. What should I do?

  Is anyway for me to back up my documents and then reload everything, or is there a way for me to fix the entire system without erasing it?

  Thanks for your help
  Josh

  I agree with kody. You can try to fix it using windows advanced option menu. Maybe you can also try to repair Windows by using the recovery console. Problem is that this option can be used with Microsoft WXP CD facilities and not with supplied recovery media.

• NTLDR is missing - windows xp professional

  recceving error "NTLDR is missing".

  I searched through the various articles on the support site and I can't seem to understand even where to start. I can't go to the command line to run executable files and I don't have a boot disk. I copied a bootdisk from Microsoft, and it does not on the machine no more (although I don't know if I copied it on the disc properly). Honestly, I am new on most of this, but if given a little instruction I could walk through it pretty easily.

  My father would like to recover the system enough at least be able to remove the precious files on the hard drive and then I'll just reformat this computer and install Windows 7. Is that going to be possible?

  Thank you, Jessica Ross

  If you have data on the computer that has not been saved and checked as good, I recommend strongly that you are trying to get a backup of the data before doing anything else for the reader.  You can remove the drive and put it in an external USB enclosure of a type that will take care of your player (type IDE (PATA) or SATA) and copy the files to another computer before attempting to repair your disk.  If you make a mistake you could very well lose all data on the disk.  A good backup system is necessary even if you have only one computer.  Prevents data loss.

• error NTLDR

  My Windows XP SP3 will not start.  Since the installation of SP3, I have installed all MS suggested updates.  My W - XP SP3 has worked fine until

  After I installed (the 01/05/11) a set of updates to 8 MS, who are KB: 2296199, 2423089, 2436673, 2440591, 2443105,.

  2467659, 2443685 and 890830.

  Once the 8 updates were installed, I allowed my computer to restart.  The bios load, but Windows introduced the error message:

  "NTLDR is missing.  Press CTRL + Alt + Delete to restart. "I did it.  The bios is restarted, the W - XP loading screen appeared, he flickered

  Once, the screen went white for 5-6 seconds, the heads of the parked hard drive, hard drive, quit spinning and the computer

  restarted.  This same sequence - the bios boot, load W - XP and flicker, white screen screen appearance of 5-6 sec., HDD arrested, and

  restarting the computer - resurfaced and he continued this process cycle until I turned off the computer.  I am referring to what the

  'cycle start abandoned.'  It happens every time I try to start on this hard drive; It goes indefinitely until I power off of the computer.

  I use two hard drives.  The primary drive ("HDD320") is 320 GB. It has a partition to the boot/system/application files and 3

  partitions for the data files.  The secondary drive ("HDD80") is 80 GB, and is used only for data backup.

  Here's what I tried to correct this anomaly:

  1. last checked - it has not corrected the fault.

  2. start in SafeMode - many Safe Mode files, the system stopped for 6 to 8 seconds, and abandoned start-up cycle began.

  3. disconnect the secondary drive - I disconnected HDD80 and changed HDD320 jumper on the "single" position, then changed the

  BIOS accordingly.  The abandoned start cycle began.  (Of course, whenever I make changes in the HARD drive, I always: Turn off the power; variation)

  Configuration of HDD jumpers and cables;  "and after turning on the power, change the bios to match changes in the HARD drive).

  4. boot from the CD W - XP and start the Recovery Console, I started the repair feature.  He did his thing and restarted the

  computer.  The abandoned start cycle began.

  5. change hard drives - I disconnected HDD320, installed a hard drive 2.5 GB ("HDD2.5") and then to install W - XP on HDD2.5.  W XP

  has HDD2.5 successfully started.

  6. check the defective HARD drive: I connected HDD320 as slave and rebooted.  All the folders and files shown in the indexer (Explorer) as they

  must and data files, which do not request additional s.w., open in a satisfactory manner.

  7 uninstall updates of 8 MS - I uninstalled KB2296199 and KB2423089 by invoking the spuninst.exe executable in each

  \WINDOWS\$NtUninstallKB*$\spuninst\ file two updates.  Windows found time uninstalls as successful, but I don't have

  find out if they were really effective, because the updated files to uninstall weren't on the C:\ drive, i.e. were spuninst.exe

  wait until they are.  The updated files are on HDD320, which, as a slave, is listed as drive F:\.

  I uninstalled KBs, 2436673, 2440591, 2443105, 2467659 and 2443685 manually, in accordance with the instructions in the file spuninst.txt

  in each folder to uninstall.  It has been/is no uninstall for KB890830 folder, and I makes no attempt to change this update.

  try running a chkdsk /r and fixboot and fixmbr via the recovery console.

   

  If no joy, then you will simply need to maybe reformat the drive and do a clean install of the OS

   

  so if your backups are viable, you can update your system with them.

   

  However, if the problem you are experiencing is the result of malicious programs, then you will have to give up your backups as they have checked the infections.

• "NTLDR is missing. Press CTRL-ALT-DEL to restart"is the error message I get every time I try to go on my laptop. What can I do to solve this problem, help!

  I use a Packard Bell laptop and this happens everytime I try to turn on my computer. When I restart it, the same message so I'm never able to use it. Your help will be very appreciated.

  Hi THOBO90,

  1. When did you start to question?

  This problem may occur if the MFT root folder is very fragmented. If the MFT root folder contains many files, the MFT might become fragmented to an additional allocation index is created.

  Try the following steps to resolve the problem:

  Step 1:

  Boot with the Windows XP CD in Recovery Console.

  b. Copy NTLDR and NTDETECT.COM on C: drive i386 folder.

  c. attempts to boot to the desktop.

  If not able, follow these steps.

  Step 2:

  In Recovery Console, run 8 following commands (press ENTER after each line):

  a. CD of the

  b. ATTRIB C:\boot.ini h

  c. ATTRIB C:\boot.ini-s

  d. ODILE r C:\boot.ini

  e. del boot.ini

  f. BOOTCFG /Rebuild

  g. Add to the startup folder

  Step 3:

  If you can start Windows, but get a message saying that the boot.ini file is not valid.

  a.Create a new boot.ini in Notepad and saved on the hard drive.

  EXAMPLE:

  [boot loader]

  timeout = 30 default = multi (0) disk (0) rdisk (0) partition (1) \WINDOWS

  [operating systems]

  "multi (0) disk (0) rdisk (0) partition (1) \WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Edition family.

  / fastdetect

  For more information, see the following KB articles:

  Consult the 330184 KB and follow step 8.

  "Invalid Boot.ini" or "Windows did not start" error messages when you start your computer

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/330184

  Windows may not start and you may receive an error message "NTLDR is missing" If Windows is not up-to-date and there are too many files in the root folder

  Hi Lee,.

  You have XP installed on a different partition?

  You can try these methods to solve the problem.

  Method 1

  Step 1

  Try to start in safe mode.

  Step 2

  If you are able to boot into safe mode, you try to perform a system restore.

  Method 2

  Startup Repair is a Windows Vista recovery tool that can fix certain problems, such as system files missing or damaged, that might prevent Windows from starting correctly. When you run the Startup Repair, it scans your computer for the problem and then tries to fix it so that your computer can start correctly.

  1. Insert the installation disc.

  2. restart your computer.

  Click the Start button, click the arrow next to the lock button, and then click restart.

  3. If you are prompted, press any key to start Windows from the installation disc.

  Note

  If your computer is not configured to start from a CD or a DVD, see the documentation provided with your computer. You may need to change your computer's BIOS settings. For more information, see BIOS: frequently asked questions.

  4. choose your language settings, and then click Next.

  5. click on repair your computer.

  6. Select the operating system you want to repair, and then click Next.

  7. in the System Recovery Options menu, click Startup Repair. Startup Repair can invite you to make choices as it tries to solve the problem, and if necessary, it may restart your computer, because it makes the repairs.

• Satellite Pro 4300: error - NTLDR missing

  Hi all

  I have an old Satellite Pro 4360, P3 700 mhz.
  I'm trying to upgrade the Bios to install Ubuntu Linux.

  However, by following the instructions on the download of Toshiba Bios, IE change the boot sequence for the floppy drive with the disc in the drive that contains the update files, I can't update and just got the message:

  NTLDR missing

  Someone help with this?

  Also, when I try to run the live CD, after changing the boot sequence in the CD-ROM, I get no response and the computer continues to boot from the disk with Windows 2000 Pro?

  Someone help with this?

  Hello

  "NTLDR is missing" usually means that the "NT Loader" of an operating system with the kernel NT or NT-technology cannot start the operating system. (Such system NT could be Win NT, Win XP or Win 200o)

  But it s strange when a drive reports an error message. What was on the disk before? Was the drive some disk before starting? If so, then proceed as follows:

  Format the drive in Windows 2000 with the option to make a disk and copy the files from the BIOS on this subject. Then boot from the disk and update your BIOS. Ususally it should work.

  Please give a few comments if you managed...

  Welcome them

• ERROR on the home page of Windows XP _ "NTLDR is missing".

  XP family. Son has wiped the drive and who knows what else. I insert the XP CD and get ERROR -.

  Primary drive 1 not found
  Strike F1 key to continue, F2 to run the Setup utility

  I press F1 and error

  NTLDR is missing
  Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete to restart

  This problem has been fixed.

  I went through different threads and realized:

  I needed to change my boot from C: drive to D:

  If the system would boot from the Windows XP CD. I restarted with ++ and press to enter the establishment. I went to the floppy boot and changed. So when I left, it starts on the instalation disk, it was a Brézé to delete all partitions and reinstall the OS. I have all the old files and wanted a clean install, so now I'm ready to go. My machine is running faster than ever, even when it was new because all the waste from Dell has disappeared.

  Glory to God in the highest!
