Thanks for the info. I will give it a try.

Do you have the original Windows 7 disk, or a Repair disk? Either one will do the trick.

It showed up when I was turning it on.

Was you trying to reformat the hard drive and you're receiving this error, or was you using the computer when this happened?

Yes Windows 7. This is a old computer...could it just be done?

Check your floppy and optical (CD/DVD/BD) drives for media and disconnect any external drives. Often times, the "NTLDR is Missing" error will appear if your PC is trying to boot to a non-bootable floppy disk, CD/DVD/BD, or external hard drive or flash drive.

If this doesn't work let us know. I'm assuming your running Windows 7?

NTLDR is missing and ctrl, alt, delete will not restart it. Help is needed. Thank you
