NTLDR is missing

Hi
This is what I see at boot up
Verifying DMI pool data......
Boot from CD :

NTLDR is missing
Press Ctrl +Alt+ del to restart

restart always returns to this message

This happened before and micro center simple reimaged my hard drive and i
lost all my data so i would like to try another solution this time. I do not
have a vista start disk since the recovery information is sectioned on my
hard drive.

Thanks Rodge B

Do you have CD(s) in the drive(s)? If so, remove them all and try again.

This particular error is misleading, in that it indicates a problem
with your hard disk, but this isn't always the case.

Bad memory can result in NTLDR not running correctly. If you have just
recently added additional memory to your computer, remove the additions
to see if that helps. Sometimes just removing and re-seating your memory
(after gently blowing out dust particles) will also help. If your memory
modules are rated at different speeds (never a good idea really), the
slowest sould be in bank 0.

An unstable overclock of either the CPU or memory can also cause this
error, so reset your bios to either failsafe or optimal defaults to try
and clear it up.

Roger,

Along with the other answers make sure you DON'T have a floppy disk in your
drive.

Hi PNuts

I did remove a CD from the drive but I still get the same message at start
up which is

Verifying DMI pool data......
Boot from CD :

NTLDR is missing
Press Ctrl +Alt+ del to restart

I there a way to instruct machine to not boot off of CD?

Cold boot. go into the OS. Might be F8 or F10. Go to the Drive setup. Make sure
it's set to BOOT from your C: drive. Exit and save.
it should auto reboot, and the ntldr problem is gone.
