NTLDR Missing

NTLDR Missing! Do you ever got a message like this on booting. Well! I've suffered from this and believe me it's dangerous. The computer stops at a black and white screen and display the message

NTLDR Missing

and when you press Ctrl+Alt+Del it restarts and gives this message again and again. It will not let you start your computer!!!

This can be caused due to a virus or by your young children. There is a file present in C: Directory "ntldr" which is hidden if it is exposed it can be deleted by anyone. It may also be deleted by a virus. On deleting it will give no warning and the computer will work as it is. But as you will shutdown it the first time you'll open it you will get the same message.

If you have backup your data you simply use the Automated Recovery Program. Or
You can repair windows by inserting Windows CD or Windows USB and selecting Repair. Or
You can reinstall windows in the same directory with a bootable CD.

And don't commit the same mistake again
