(Either way it will reveal my ignorance of OS boot process subtleties.) Short story: Tried to install 5.1 in dual boot config with XP Home, but got "NTLDR missing" when trying to boot XP (using FreeBSD's boot manager).

(a) If you have a boot sector virus, you may lose access to all partitions. Then http://www.terabyteunlimited.com/utilities.html MBRWork "might" help to recover them. (b) If you have "overlay" code in the MBR, eg, EZ-BIOS, Maxblast, a boot manager, then that will need to be reestablished afterwards.

hal.dll missing or corrupt error using Remote Boot
200 megs - DOS 7 megs - Boot Manager 200 Megs - OS/2 Is this an (E)IDE disk? Is it master? It should be the first master disk. BootManager only requires 1M, so you could save a little space there. Are all 3 of these primary partitions? How are the partitions formatted? DOS is FAT16 I presume. Is OS/2 HPFS or FAT?

NTLDR Missing - unique situation.
Now add this formatted future Linux partition to Bootmanager's menu. For good measure reboot and select this future Linux partition from the Bootmanager menu, so you're sure you get the "Missing OS" or equivalent error message and not the "Unformatted partition" error message. Now you're ready to reboot from your

These are the major steps I performed when I couldn't boot into Linux and when I could: Unsuccesful install: - Used Partition Magic 4 (run from Win98) to to copy the Win98 partition back to the first drive - Installed Ranish Boot Manager to MBR of first drive - Choosing between Linux and Win98 is OK - Woo hoo!

CD-ROM Missing After Boot Manager Install
Hi Rick, I'm not using a boot manager. The bios reports the second hard drive in both cases where I'm using the (SP2) hard drive or the (SP1) hard drive. Are you using a boot manager? If so, then you likely need to load this drive to this boot item (or possible unhide it). -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers,

Win 2k pro missing boot.ini file
However, there has been an increase in "NTLDR missing" posts lately, so there may be a new problem, but as I said, since people take advice and never give feedback, it's hard to say. The fourth simplest cause is you installed a third-party boot manager and didn't quite get it right. The solution is to read the user

Missing Operating System
The task bar and the desktop icons were all missing. If I pressed ctl-alt-del the task manager box would come up.

I have a dual boot set up, using Partition Boot

"Missing Operating System"
My intention was to install the boot manager on scsi 0, which did happen. I also intended, but apparently neglected, to put a mbr on scsi 1. The FreeBSD boot manager will only boot to NT. I can access and run FreeBSD from scsi 1 using the FreeBSD installation floppy at boot but this is a workaround.

Is OS2DASD.DMD the missing link?
NTLDR also provides a boot manager. The Dos Boot Record on the hard drive says load, for 98 - c:\io.sys, and for NT = C:\NTLDR, therefore you have a NT based boot When I turn it on it says NTDLR is missing press any key... Now I tried looking up about this but I dont know much about the computer, im told it had

I retro-fitted MS-DOS 7.10 to XP (by doing SYS C: with a 98se boot disk) without having to touch the MBR. Shortly after that, I installed ME to XP by running Setup, also without needing to touch the MBR afterwards. Of course, I already had Boot Magic handling it. IOW, with BM (or other) as boot manager you can
