Hi, I need to find NTLDR and copy it to my active
partition so it will boot. I have another machine with
win2000 on it so I can copy it from there, but I can't
find it, does anybody know where it is?

JK, open Disk Management and find the 'system' partition. NTLDR will be
in the root of the system partition. By default, it is not visible
using Windows Explorer. I find it much easier to find and/or copy using
the command prompt (cmd.exe).
