Okay my OS was doing fine until the other day when out of no where I got a missing NTLDR and then it would not restart without saying that so i put my hard drive in a different computer as a slave and it booted up fine so i backed up my files put it back in my computer and tried to reinstall windows but after the install it just sits at a blank screen with a dash blinking and wont even reach the windows xp screen my computer is a Compaq Presario SR1410NX Desktop PC at this point i read through microsoft to make a bootable floppy that has NTLDR and Ntdetect.com files in it from the windows cd. ill end up doing that later this evening can anyone help me this is getting really time consuming.
