I am having a bad run of failing to boot HDs. After trying to repair the spare Sata W.Digital HD it will again NOT Boot on its own, but boots with a boot floppy program called "fixntldr.exe" I found here:- Simple "ntldr is missing" fix with boot floppy, CD-R, or USB flash Somehow I blew it & ended up with 2 Wins XP, as shown below in HD Manager, one in E primary & another in J logical shown in image below. Can I delete the J logical partition?. Can anybody see a way of getting this HD to boot on its own. If I go in Safe Mode is there anything I can do to change things.
SOLVED Hoorrayyyy, done it. Managed to get in command mode using BARTE CD & applied these two:- copy K:\i386\ntldr C:\ (where K is the CDD letter) copy K:\i386\ntdetect.com C:\ when I was directed to :- http://michaelstevenstech.com/XPrepairinstall.htm
